Testoval® Aluminum kit

Colour comparison kit for rapid manual analysis of aluminium content in water within a concentration range of 0–2.0 mg/l Al.

The Testoval Aluminium Test Kit is a colour comparison kit for the manual analysis of aluminium content in water within a range of 0 to 2.0 mg/l aluminium. The kit allows the aluminium concentration to be read directly using a colour scale.

Simple aluminium testing in water

A slight colour change in the colour comparison device reveals the aluminium content. A water sample is placed in the supplied device, the reagents are added, and the colour intensity is then compared with a scale to read the value. Values from 0 to 2.0 mg/l can be read. By diluting the sample with distilled water in a ratio of 1:10, the measuring range can be extended to 10 times the concentration if required. When diluted with distilled water in a ratio of 1:10, the range is 0–20 mg/l (hand test) and 0–10 mg/l (PPM 150).

Advantages and areas of application

The test kit:

• Enables rapid manual determination of the aluminium content in water
• Works without electricity or a photometer; requires only colour comparison and reagents
• Provides results in approx. 6 minutes and is sufficient for approx. 130 analyses
• A wider measurement range can be covered by diluting the sample

Such colour comparison tests are well suited for rapid checks in water treatment, swimming pools, industrial facilities or environmental measurements.
