This is a titration-based chemical test kit that measures salinity within the 0.0 to 40.0 g/kg range. The HI3835 is supplied with all of the necessary reagents and equipment to perform the analysis. The test kit contains enough reagents for perform approximately 110 tests. Salinity is defined as the total solids in water after all carbonates have been converted to oxides, all bromide and iodide have been replaced by chloride, and all organic matter has been oxidized. The salinity value is in g/kg or ppt (parts per thousand). The monitoring of salinity is essential for industrial waste and seawater, as different species of plants and animals thrive varying salinity levels.
Ordering information: Replacement reagents need to be purchased seperatly.
Caution: This product can expose you to chemicals including mercury and mercury compounds, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer. (Propisition 65)
