The <strong>K-7020B Nitrite HR CHEMets\u00ae Test Kit<\/strong> provides an accurate and reliable way to measure nitrite concentrations <strong>from 0-250 ppm<\/strong>, making it an excellent solution for high-range nitrite testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why Choose the K-7020B Nitrite Test Kit?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>K-7020B<\/strong> replaces the discontinued <strong>VACUettes product line<\/strong> and overlaps with the <strong>K-7004B test kit<\/strong>, making it the go-to option for high-range nitrite testing.

In an acidic solution, nitrite reacts with a <strong>primary aromatic amine<\/strong>, then couples with another organic molecule to form a <strong>highly colored azo dye<\/strong>. The resulting <strong>pink-orange color intensity is proportional to the nitrite concentration<\/strong> in the sample.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step-by-Step Testing Procedure<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Attach a <strong>pipette tip<\/strong> to the <strong>MiniPet\u00ae pipettor<\/strong> and draw a sample.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dispense the sample into the empty sample cup.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dilute to 25 mL<\/strong> with distilled water.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add the following solutions in order:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>5 drops<\/strong> of <strong>S-1404 Stabilizer<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>5 drops<\/strong> of <strong>S-1405 Catalyzer (Green)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>5 drops<\/strong> of <strong>S-1406 Activator (Blue)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Immediately <strong>snap the tip<\/strong> of the <strong>CHEMets\u00ae ampoule<\/strong> inside the sample cup.
