Iron is a naturally occurring element that can be found in almost all bodies of water and groundwater sources. Although iron is essential for the human body, too high a concentration in drinking water can lead to undesirable effects. Elevated iron levels cause a brownish discoloration of the water, a metallic taste and can lead to deposits in pipes and household appliances. <\/p>\n
The limit value for drinking water in Germany is 0.2 mg\/l<\/strong> (Drinking Water Ordinance). The CALDUR\u00ae Iron HRS test set is specially designed for measuring higher iron concentrations and is particularly suitable for industrial applications, boiler water and process water, where higher iron contents frequently occur. <\/p>\n Iron can enter the water from various sources: natural leaching from iron-containing rock layers, corrosion of iron pipes, industrial discharges or through iron-containing additives in water treatment. It is particularly important to monitor the iron content in steam boilers and cooling circuits, as increased concentrations can lead to corrosion and deposits. <\/p>\n The CALDUR\u00ae Iron HRS Test Set – Colorimetric works according to the proven O-phenanthroline method. O-phenanthroline (1,10-phenanthroline) forms an intense orange-red color complex with iron(II) ions, the intensity of which is proportional to the iron concentration. The reaction is highly specific for iron and enables reliable determination even at higher concentrations. <\/p>\n After a reaction time of 4 minutes, the measured value is determined by direct color comparison with a supplied 6-stage color chart. This colorimetric method enables fast and reliable on-site determination without the need for expensive laboratory equipment. <\/p>\n Perfect for boiler water, process water and applications with higher iron concentrations<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Ideal for on-site use – saves time and enables immediate decisions<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Cost-efficient for regular checks in industry and water treatment<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Fewer work steps for faster results<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Reliable and reproducible results according to a standardized procedure<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Safe transportation and protection of reagents – durable and reliable<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" CALDUR\u00ae Iron HRS Test Set – Colorimetric What is iron measured for?
