R-5005 Hydrazine

The K-5005 CHEMets Visual Kit is visual indicator kit for measuring hydrazine in water levels from 0-0.5 ppm.  This device uses the PDMAB Method for testing. CHEMetrics' hydrazine test kits employ the PDMAB, paradimethylaminobenzaldehyde chemistry. PDMAB in acid solution reacts with hydrazine to form a yellow product. Results are expressed as ppb (ug/L) or ppm (mg/L) N₂H.

Hydrazine is a powerful reducing agent that is used in various chemical processes and in boiler water as an oxygen scavenger. To control corrosion, residual hydrazine typically is maintained in the 0.05 to 0.1 mg/L range. Higher levels may be used to guard against corrosion when the boiler is out of service for an extended period.

The refill kit R-5005 can be purchased for more tests.
