- The HI3815 is a chemical test kit that measures chloride by titration with mercuric nitrate. The HI3815 is supplied complete with all of the reagents and equipment necessary to perform approximately 110 tests.
- Pre-made reagents for ease of use
- All reagents marked with expiration date and lot number for traceability
- Manual titration performed with diphenylcarbazone indicator
- The HI3815 is a titration-based chemical test kit that determines the chloride concentration within two ranges: 0 to 100 mg/L Cl– and 0 to 1000 mg/L Cl–. The HI3815 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.
Features at-a-glance
- Complete setup
- All required materials are included with the test kit, such as the sample beaker, indicator and reagent solutions, and calibrated syringe.
- High resolution
- Readings from 0 to 100 mg/L are determined to 1 mg/L resolution.
- Readings from 0 to 1000 mg/L are determined to 10 mg/L resolution.
- Replacement reagents available
- There is no need to buy a new kit when reagents are exhausted. The HI3815-100 reagent set can be ordered to replace the reagents supplied with the kit. This reagent set comes with 1 (15mL) dropper bottle of diphenyl carbazone indicator, 1 (30mL) dropper bottle of nitric acid solution, 1 (120mL) bottle of HI3815-0 mercuric nitrate solution.
Significance of Use
- Chloride ions are one of the major inorganic anions in water and wastewater. Although high concentrations of chloride in water are not known to be toxic to humans, its regulation is mainly due to taste. It is essential to monitor chloride concentration in boiler systems to prevent damage of metal parts. In high levels, chloride can corrode stainless steel and be toxic to plant life.
