Each package contains 250 single-use tablets, calibrated to provide reliable and repeatable test results for the maintenance of swimming pools, spas, and other aquatic facilities.Total alkalinity represents the water\u2019s ability to buffer pH fluctuations. Controlling it helps maintain a stable pH, improves the effectiveness of treatment products, and reduces the risk of corrosion, scaling, or overly frequent pH adjustments.These tablets are designed for use with Pool i.d. and Water-i.d. photometers, particularly the PoolLab 1.0, PoolLab 2.0, and PrimeLab 2.0 models, which feature specific programs for measuring total alkalinity.<\/p>\n<h2>What is the total alkalinity reagent used for?<\/h2>\n<p>Reagent 209060AL is used to determine the total alkalinity of water, which is typically expressed in ppm or mg\/L of<sub>CaCO\u2083<\/sub>. This value is essential for correctly interpreting pH measurements and maintaining the chemical balance of the water.<\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n<h2>How to use<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Fill the cuvette with the water sample up to the mark indicated by the Photometer.<\/li>\n<li>Add one 209060AL reagent tablet.<\/li>\n<li>Crush the tablet inside the bucket using the appropriate accessory.<\/li>\n<li>Close the tube and gently shake it until the reagent is completely dissolved.<\/li>\n<li>Take the reading according to the photometer&#8217;s total alkalinity procedure.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Main advantages<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Accurate measurement of total alkalinity (TAC).<\/li>\n<li>Fast, stable, and repeatable results.<\/li>\n<li>Single-use tablet form with precise dosing.<\/li>\n<li>It helps keep the pH more stable.<\/li>\n<li>It makes it easier to control the chemical balance of the water.<\/li>\n<li>Compatible with Pool i.d. and Water-i.d. photometric-grade equipment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Compatibility<\/h2>\n<p>Compatible with photometers that have a measurement program for total alkalinity, particularly PoolLab 1.0, PoolLab 2.0, and PrimeLab 2.0.<\/p>\n<h2>Presentation<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Reference:<\/strong> 209060AL<\/li>\n<li><strong>Parameter:<\/strong> total alkalinity (TAC).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Form:<\/strong> single-use test tablets.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Contents:<\/strong> 100 tablets.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Recommended applications<\/h2>\n<p>Recommended for private, condominium, and commercial pools; spas; wellness centers; professional maintenance; and water quality control.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The 209060AL test tablets allow for the precise measurement of total alkalinity (TAC) in water using a Photometer.
