Alert colorimeter analysers utilise the differential absorbance colorimetry (DAC) methodology to prevent sample colour or turbidity interfering with the analysis result
The latest additions to the Alert colorimeter range from Applikon Analytical are the new colorimetric iron and aluminium analyser.
Designed for reliability and minimal operator attendance the Alert analyser is perfect for drinking and waste water analysis, says Metrohm.
Both analysers utilise the differential absorbance colorimetry (DAC) methodology to prevent sample colour or turbidity interfering with the analysis result.
The Alert colorimeter for iron provides analysis in the range 0.002mg/l to 1mg/l with an analysis time of less than ten minutes.
Reagent consumption is extremely low at 0.5ml per reagent per analysis.
The Alert colorimeter for aluminium provides analysis in the range of 0-1mg/l with an analysis time of approximately ten minutes.
Reagent consumption is also low at 2.5ml per analysis.
Automatic calibration checks are carried out either on a periodic basis or as a conditional action to validate out of range results.
The Alert colorimeter features extensive I/O capabilities such as high result relays, remote start/stop and analogue outputs.
The running costs are kept to a minimum by minimal consumables and attendance for planned maintenance is usually carried out on an annual basis.
