Why Choose CHEMetrics Vacuettes kits?
VACUettes ampoules are designed for highly concentrated samples. They employ a patented auto-dilution feature that eliminates the need for a time-consuming and error-prone preliminary dilution. As a result, the entire test takes only 2 to 3 minutes, with a rate of accuracy comparable to a volumetric procedure. The basic design of these 7 mm ampoules is the same as CHEMets ampoules, however, a capillary tip is attached to the tip of each ampoule.
Safe and Reliable Results:
While traditional methods often require multiple steps and thorough preparation, these test kits allow you to obtain dependable results with a few simple steps. By simplifying the testing method, Vacuettes test kits reduce the potential for operator error. Additionally, each of the ampoules contained in the test kits is vacuum sealed which helps eliminate the problem of obtaining inaccurate results from stale or unstable reagents. These reagents are stored right in the tip of each ampoule and sealed in glass, thereby minimizing direct contact with the chemicals.
What's Included:
-30 self-filling Ampoules -Comparators -Activator Solution -Diluter snapper cup -Sample cup top -Micro test tube -Instruction Manual |
Method:
The K-6502D Manganese Kit was designed to accurately measure the levels of Manganese in water from 0-60 ppm. K-6502D uses the Periodate Method. CHEMetrics' tests employ the periodate chemistry that measures soluble manganese compounds but does not differentiate the various valence states. Results are expressed as ppm (mg/L) Mn. Permanganate (MnO4) develops approximately 25% more color with this reagent than other forms of manganese, causing a high bias. If the sample is known to contain manganese in the form of permanganate only, multiplying test results by 0.8 will improve the accuracy of the results.
Surface and ground waters rarely contain more than 1 mg/L of soluble or suspended manganese. Manganese can act as an oxidizing or a reducing agent depending on its valence state. Manganese is also used in the manufacture of batteries and as an alloying metal in the manufacture of steel and aluminum. The National Secondary Drinking Water Standard for manganese is 0.05 mg/L, as higher concentrations will impart a foul taste to water and discolor laundry and porcelain surfaces.
1. Fill the diluter snapper cup to the -ml- mark with distilled water. Add 3 drops of Activator Solution. Cap the cup and shake it to mix the contents. | 2. Fill the micro-test tube approximately halfway with the sample to be tested. |
3. Holding the VACUette almost horizontally, touch the tip to the contents of the micro-test tube. |
4. Place the VACUette between the vertical tip guides on the inside of the dilutor snapper cup and snap the ampoule tip. |
5.To mix the ampoule, invert it several times, allowing the bubble to travel from end to end. |
6. Dry the ampoule. Obtain the test result 1 minute after snapping the tip. |
7. Place the ampoule into the center of the round comparator and hold it toward a source of light, viewing from the bottom. Rotate the comparator until the color below the ampoule shows the closest match. | 8. For higher concentrations, use flat comparator. Place the ampoule between the color standards, moving it along the comparator until you can determine the closest match. |
