MultiTest ™ pH & Alkalinity

Especially suitable for checking ordinary hard Danish tap water and for use in connection with. saltwater aquariums.

This test kit has a unique dye that has a marked color change between 8.0 and 8.3, making it the easiest kit on the market to read in the critical range. Alkalinity can be read from the same sample in steps of 0.5 meq / l.
With MultiTest ™ pH & Alkalinity can perform over 75 tests and the set contains a reference sample for validation.

This set measures total alkalinity. Total alkalinity is a measure of the carbonate, bicarbonate, borate and hydroxide content of the water, expressed as an acid neutralizing capacity of the water in meq / L (milliequivalents / Liter). The expression of alkalinity as meq / L is chemically sound and the most useful way to express this property of the water is to resist change in pH.
