Nitrite, HR Ion Specific Colorimeter
*Product Manual Below*
Test water quality in ppm NO2. Determining NO2 levels in soil or compost requires extraction/filtration. (Extract solution and filters sold separately). Range 0-0.35 ppm NO2 in increments of 0.01 ppm. Accuracy ±4% of full scale. Auto shut-off. (Reagents sold separately).
- Simple to operate
- Rugged housing for field use
- Long battery life
Nitrites are an intermediate product in the nitrogen cycle and are produced during ammonia oxidation with water, or even originate in industrial waste directly. They must not be present in drinking water. Nitrites can be harmful to aquatic organisms even in low concentrations and for this reason, they are closely monitored in aquaculture facilities. In cooling towers, however, an adequate amount of nitrites is necessary to prevent corrosion. In high concentrations, they can be harmful to environment and to man. They are, therefore, normally monitored to verify the quality of water for domestic use, as well as lakes and ponds. HI 93707 and HI 93708 show the nitrite concentration directly in the 0.00 to 0.35 mg/L and 0 to 150 mg/L ranges, with increments of 0.01 mg/L and 1 mg/L, respectively.
