Water Quality Colorimeter

PS-2179

Introduction

The PASPORT Water Quality Colorimeter is designed for chemi-

cal analysis of water samples using PASCO's ezSample Snap Vial

water quality test kits.

ezSample Snap Vials contain a reagent (specific to a particular

ion) in a vacuum-sealed ampoule. When the scored tip of the

ampoule is snapped off in the water sample, the sample is drawn

into the ampoule and mixes with the color-forming reagent. The

absorbance of the resulting solution depends on the ion concen-

tration.

The colorimeter accurately measures the absorbance by project-

ing light through the ampoule and measuring the intensity of

transmitted light. It uses Beer's Law and built-in calibration

curves to calculate the ion concentration.

The colorimeter’s measurements are sent to your PASPORT

interface for display, recording, and analysis.
