The Best Low Range Phosphate Checker

PROBLEMS WITH ALGAE? PHOSPHATES MAY BE FEEDING THE ALGAE

Keep phosphate levels in check to prevent algae breakouts! Packaged in a convenient and sturdy plastic bottle, the AquaChek Phosphate kit includes testing powder pillows, sampling vial, directions and color chart. The test gives accurate results after only 60-seconds, and measures phosphate from 0 to 1000 parts per billion. 20 tests per bottle. Only available in US, not for resale in Canada.

The HI774 Ultra Low Range Phosphate Checker HC (Handheld Colorimeter) is a cost-effective way to measure phosphate in marine systems, including reef tanks. Testing for phosphates is standard practice for saltwater aquariums and provides valuable insight into your reef tank’s water chemistry to help ensure long-term coral health. Phosphates are one of the many forms of phosphorus compounds found in marine waters. Excessive phosphate levels can prevent calcification, skeletal formation, and growth of many coral species, particularly those referred to as SPS or small-polyp stony. In addition, high phosphate levels can cause nuisance algae growth in your reef tank. This can become problematic because algae often outcompetes sessile organisms for light, nutrients, and space, jeopardizing long term coral health in your reef. Take our portable handheld colorimeter anywhere. Simple, one-button design makes getting your results easy. Improve your technology and upgrade from your standard test kit. The HI774 Checker HC (Handheld Colorimeter) provides a simple, accurate and cost effective way to measure phosphate from 0.00 to 0.90 ppm. Phosphorus is an important parameter to measure in aquaculture and aquariums; levels that are too high can lead to extensive algae growth, depleted dissolved oxygen levels, and ultimately can be fatal to many types of fish and aquatic life. Designed as a more accurate alternative to chemical test kits, the HI774 provides quick, accurate results in a few easy steps. Features at-a-glance: Easier to use and more accurate than chemical test kits Dedicated to a single parameter Small size, big convenience Ideal for: Aquariums, Environmental, Aquaculture, Water Quality

The Hanna Phosphate Low Range Checker bridges the gap between simple chemical test kits and professional instrumentation. Chemical test kits have limited accuracy and resolution since they rely upon the human eye to discern differences in color. Professional instrumentation incorporates a light source such as an LED or tungsten lamp with a filter and a light sensing detector to precisely determine ion concentration. Professional instrumentation offers greater resolution and accuracy but can cost hundreds of dollars. The Hanna Phosphate Low Range Checker uses a fixed wavelength LED and silicon photo detector to provide the accuracy of professional instrumentation at the affordable price of a chemical test kit. PLUS a pack of 25 The HI713-25 are the replacement reagents for the HI713 Phosphate Low Range Checker HC. These high-quality reagents are manufactured in our state-of-the-art facility and are clearly marked with the lot number and expiration date on each packet for traceability.

The Hanna Instruments HI 736 Checker HC Handheld Colorimeter for Phosphorus is portable meter for measuring phosphate levels.

The HI 736 bridges the gap between less accurate chemical test kits, and expensive professional test instrumentation. The HI 736 operates using a silicon photocell light detector, and has an accuracy of + or – 5% using an adaptation of Standard Method Ascorbic Acid. To use, simply zero the instrument with your water sample, then add the reagent. Place the vial into the checker, press the button, and read the results within seconds.

The HI 736 operates in temperatures from 0 to 50 degrees C (32 to 122 degrees F)/RH max 95% with a range of 0 to 200 ppb with precision + or – 5% ppb at 25 degrees C. The device operates on one 1.5V AAA battery, with an auto-off function that shuts off the device after three minutes of non-use. Dimensions are 81.5 x 61 x 37.5 mm (3.2 x 2.4 x 1.5”) and weighs 64 g (2.25 oz.).

Orthophosphates are present in water from the natural weathering of mineral deposits, agricultural runoff, untreated sewage, animal waste, fertilizers and as a corrosion inhibitor in drinking water. Phosphate photometers are used by researchers, manufacturers, and individuals to monitor phosphate levels in the environment, and in the home.

Hanna Instruments manufactures a wide variety of analytical instrumentation, including pH meters, multi-parameter meters, electrodes, chemical reagents and buffer solutions. Founded in 1978, Hanna is headquartered in Woonsocket, RI, with subsidiaries in 32 countries. Hanna Instruments holds many firsts in the field of analytical instrumentation, including the world’s first pH electrode with a built-in temperature sensor, electronic pocket-sized pH tester, and replaceable electrode pH pocket tester. To ensure the quality of its products, Hanna is a vertically integrated manufacturer and does not subcontract any part of its manufacturing.

The HI 713 Checker HC Handheld Photometer for Phosphate is a portable tester for measuring orthophosphates in natural, waste, and drinking waters.

The HI 713 bridges the gap between less accurate chemical test kits, and expensive professional test instrumentation. The HI 713 features a resolution of 0.01 ppm (250 points) and 4% + or – 0.04 accuracy of reading. To use, zero the instrument with your water sample, then add the reagent. Place the vial into the checker, press the button and read the results within seconds.

The HI 713 operates in temperatures from 0 to 50 degrees C (32 to 122 degrees F)/RH max 95% with a range of 0.00 to 2.50 ppm (mg/L) with precision + or – 0.04 ppm (mg/L) + or – 4% of reading at 25 degrees C. The device operates on one 1.5V AAA battery, with an auto-off function that shuts off the device after two minutes of non-use. Dimensions are 81.5 x 61 x 37.5 mm (3.2 x 2.4 x 1.5”) and weight is 64 g (2.25 oz.).

Orthophosphates are present in water from the natural weathering of mineral deposits, agricultural runoff, untreated sewage, fertilizers and, as an addition to drinking water, to inhibit corrosion.
