Lovibond Tintometer has introduced the RD125 thermoreactor for the rapid heating and digestion of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) vials in a safe and secure environment.
A membrane keypad enables users to select the required temperature from a choice of three options: 100, 120 or 150C, with three pre-selection times of 30, 60 and 120min.
Alternatively, the unit can be set for continuous operation.
Designed to heat up from 20 to 150C in 12min, the RD125 ensures the rapid digestion and preparation of samples for reading.
When digestion is complete, the reactor automatically switches off and gives a corresponding LED indication with short beep alarm.
As a safety precaution, the reactor is also designed for protection against overheating at 190C.
The RD125 complements the newly introduced MD 100 COD Photometer from Lovibond Tintometer, where photometric detection measures the COD concentration in mg/l O2.
The MD100 COD is supplied as a standalone replacement unit or as a COD measurement set including the reactor, two packs of COD (small-scale sealed tube) tubes: one set for LR measurements of 0-150mg/l and one for MR measurements of 0-1,500mg/l and full instructions.
The Photometer's waterproof sample chamber, large digital display and keypad ensure maximum operating reliability and convenience.
