What is the total alkalinity reagent used for?
Reagent 209060AL is used to determine the total alkalinity of water, which is typically expressed in ppm or mg/L ofCaCO₃. This value is essential for correctly interpreting pH measurements and maintaining the chemical balance of the water.
As a general guideline, it is recommended to maintain total alkalinity between 80 and 120 ppm. A low value can cause pH fluctuations, while excessive alkalinity can make it difficult to correct the pH and promote scale formation.
How to use
- Fill the cuvette with the water sample up to the mark indicated by the Photometer.
- Add one 209060AL reagent tablet.
- Crush the tablet inside the bucket using the appropriate accessory.
- Close the tube and gently shake it until the reagent is completely dissolved.
- Take the reading according to the photometer’s total alkalinity procedure.
