Total Chlorine Test Kit HI3831T Hanna

The HI3831T is a colorimetric chemical test kit that determines the total
chlorine concentration within a 0.0 to 2.5 mg/L (ppm) range. The HI3831T is
supplied with all of the necessary reagents and equipment to perform the
analysis. The test kit contains enough reagents for perform approximately

The chlorination of water supplies and polluted waters is used mainly to
destroy or deactivate disease-producing microorganisms. Chlorine also
serves to improve the quality of drinking waters, as it reacts with ammonia,
iron, manganese, sulfide, and some organic substances. Nevertheless,
high amounts of chlorine will produce adverse effects like the formation
of compounds which are potentially carcinogenic (e.g. chloroform) or
harmful to aquatic life (e.g. chloramines). It remains essential to
control the amount of added chlorine in order to fulfill the primary
purpose of disinfecting while also minimizing any adverse effects.
