Description
The HI38020 test kit is designed for accurate measurement of free and total chlorine in a variety of water applications, including drinking water, wastewater, pools, spas, and food processing. Using the DPD method in conjunction with a Checker® disc, the kit delivers high-precision readings with resolutions of 0.02 mg/L, 0.1 mg/L, and 0.5 mg/L, depending on the measurement range. All necessary supplies, such as glass vials, pipettes, reagent packets, and a Checker® disc, are included for immediate testing.
Monitoring free and total chlorine is critical because free chlorine is responsible for disinfecting water, while total chlorine accounts for free plus combined chlorine (e.g., chloramines). Maintaining proper chlorine levels ensures safe, disinfected water while preventing unpleasant taste, odor, and reduced disinfection efficiency. The HI38020-200 replacement reagent set allows users to continue testing without buying a new kit, supporting long-term water quality monitoring.
