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 LRS test set is specially designed for the highly sensitive measurement of very low iron concentrations. With a detection limit of just 0.01 mg\/l, it is ideal for monitoring drinking water, ultrapure water and applications where even the smallest traces of iron need to be detected. <\/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. Precise monitoring of extremely low iron concentrations is particularly important in drinking water treatment, in the food industry and in sensitive processes. <\/p>\n The CALDUR\u00ae Iron LRS Test Set – Colorimetric works according to the proven ferrozine method with optimized sensitivity. Ferrozine forms an intense violet color complex with iron(II) ions, the intensity of which is proportional to the iron concentration. The special reagent formulation enables the detection of iron concentrations as low as 0.01 mg\/l. <\/p>\n After a reaction time of 5 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 Ideal for drinking water, ultrapure water and sensitive processes<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Ideal for on-site use – saves time and enables immediate decisions<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Cost-efficient for regular inspections in waterworks and industry<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Fewer work steps for faster results<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Flexible for simple on-site tests or precise laboratory analyses with photometer<\/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 LRS Test Set – Colorimetric What is iron measured for?
