Frequently asked questions
Common questions about AQUAPHOENIX SCIENTIFIC from 3G Electric.
What parameters can AquaPhoenix Scientific test kits measure?
AquaPhoenix Scientific test kits and strips measure parameters including total hardness, alkalinity, nitrite, bromine, peracetic acid, and quat (quaternary ammonium compounds). The kits use titration methods with drop-count ranges, such as 10 ppm per drop for alkalinity or 0–10 ppm per drop for hardness. Single-parameter strips provide chemical-based testing for specific analytes like nitrite or bromine, with a typical capacity of 60–75 tests per bottle.
How many tests are included in an AquaPhoenix Scientific test strip bottle?
AquaPhoenix Scientific single-parameter test strips are supplied in bottles containing 60 to 75 tests per unit. The exact count depends on the specific product SKU. For example, the nitrite test strip (MPN TK3330-Z) and bromine test strip (MPN TK4995-Z) both offer 60–75 tests. This quantity is suitable for routine monitoring over several weeks or months in industrial water systems.
Are AquaPhoenix Scientific test kits suitable for boiler water testing?
Yes, AquaPhoenix Scientific offers a Boiler Water Combination Test Kit (MPN TK6245-Z) that includes reagents for testing alkalinity and hardness. The kit provides a range of 10 ppm alkalinity per drop and is designed for use in boiler water systems. Additionally, total hardness test kits (e.g., MPN TK3051-Z and TK3057-Z) are available with ranges of 0–10 ppm per drop or 0.5 ppm per drop, respectively, for monitoring scale-forming minerals.
What is the physical size of AquaPhoenix Scientific test strips?
AquaPhoenix Scientific single-parameter test strips have an overall length of 8 inches. The strip width is approximately 9 inches for the total alkalinity strip (MPN BWTK100). These dimensions are standard for chemical test strips used in field testing, allowing easy handling and immersion in water samples.
Do AquaPhoenix Scientific test kits include equipment or just reagents?
AquaPhoenix Scientific test kits vary by SKU. Some kits, such as the total hardness water test kit (MPN TK3051-Z), include equipment for performing the test, while others, like the boiler water combination test kit (MPN TK6245-Z), include only reagents. The product specifications indicate whether the kit includes 'Equipment' or 'Reagents' to clarify what is provided. Buyers should verify the contents based on the specific part number.
Can AquaPhoenix Scientific test strips be used for peracetic acid monitoring?
Yes, AquaPhoenix Scientific offers a chemical test strip specifically for peracetic acid (MPN TK7500-Z). This strip is a single-parameter, chemical-based test with a capacity of 60–75 tests per bottle. It is designed for measuring peracetic acid concentrations in water, commonly used in disinfection applications within industrial or food processing environments.
