The latest addition to the Alert Colorimeter range from Applikon Analytical is the new zinc analyser. Designed for reliability and minimal operator attendance the Alert analyser is perfect for waste water applications. The analyser utilises the unique Differential Absorbance Colorimetry (DAC) methodology to prevent turbidity and sample colour interfering with the analysis result.

The analysis is capable of determining zinc from approximately 0.01 mg/l to 2 mg/l.

Automatic calibration checks are carried out either on a periodic basis or as a conditional action to validate out of range results.

The Alert Colorimeter features extensive I/O capabilities such as high result relays, remote start/stop and analogue outputs.

Additional remote interrogation via GSM modem is also available for isolated installations.

The running costs are kept to a minimum by low reagent use, typically less than 1ml of buffer and 0.5ml of colour reagent per analysis, and minimal consumables.

Attendance for planned maintenance is usually carried out on an annual basis.

Applikon Analytical is part of the Metrohm group of companies and represented exclusively by Metrohm UK.
