Measuring Dissolved Oxygen with the K-7599 Testing Kit

Dissolved oxygen is a crucial parameter in water quality assessment, influencing aquatic life, corrosion processes, and various industrial applications. The K-7599 Dissolved Oxygen Testing Visual Kit from CHEMetrics provides a convenient and reliable method for measuring dissolved oxygen levels in water.

Why Choose CHEMetrics Chemets Kits?

CHEMetrics Chemets kits offer several advantages for dissolved oxygen testing:

  • Ease of Use: The self-filling ampoules eliminate the need for precise reagent measurement, simplifying the testing process.
  • Visual Interpretation: Color comparators provide clear visual interpretations of results, eliminating the need for complex calculations.
  • Reduced Hazard: Vacuum-sealed ampoules minimize contact with potentially hazardous reagents, enhancing safety.
  • Reliable Results: Stable reagents and standardized procedures ensure accurate and consistent results.

What’s Included in the K-7599 Kit?

The K-7599 Dissolved Oxygen Testing Visual Kit includes:

  • 30 self-filling ampoules: Each ampoule contains Rhodazine D reagent for dissolved oxygen measurement.
  • Comparator: The comparator provides color standards for interpreting test results.
  • Mounting clamps: Adhesive and permanent mounting clamps secure the comparator for convenient use.
  • Sampling tube: The sampling tube facilitates easy sample collection from various sources.
  • Sample cup: A 25 mL sample cup is included for sample preparation.
  • Instruction manual: A comprehensive instruction manual guides users through the testing procedure.

Testing Method and Interpretation

The K-7599 kit utilizes the Rhodazine D method, a colorimetric method for dissolved oxygen measurement. The Rhodazine D reagent reacts with dissolved oxygen to produce a pink color. The intensity of the pink color is proportional to the dissolved oxygen concentration.

To perform the test, follow these steps:

  1. Fill the ampoule: Break the tip of the ampoule to allow the sample to enter.
  2. Mix the sample: Gently swirl the ampoule to mix the sample and reagent thoroughly.
  3. Compare the color: Insert the ampoule into the comparator and compare the color to the standards.
  4. Determine the dissolved oxygen concentration: Read the dissolved oxygen concentration directly from the color comparator.
