HANNA CHECKER HANDHELD COLORIMETER ALKALINITY

The Hanna Marine Alkalinity (dKH) Checker bridges the gap between simple chemical test kits and professional instrumentation. Chemical test kits have limited accuracy and resolution since they rely upon the human eye to discern differences in color. Professional instrumentation incorporates a light source such as an LED or tungsten lamp with a filter and a light sensing detector to precisely determine absorbance and ion concentration. This level of instrumentation also offers greater resolution and accuracy, but can cost hundreds of dollars. The Hanna Marine Alkalinity Checkermeasures alkalinity in dKH units, usinga fixed wavelength LED and silicon photo detector to provide the accuracy of professional instrumentation at the affordable price of a chemical test kit.

• Compact, Portable Design
• Built-in Timer
• One-Button Operation

Designed exclusively for saltwater aquariums, the HI-755 offers a quick, easy and highly accurate method of checking Alkalinity.

Alkalinity helps to maintain a stable pH, a vital factor for most aquatic life. Corals also need an adequate level of alkalinity in order to support healthy growth: if levels are too low, corals cannot precipitate and form their skeletons; if levels fluctuate too much or too quickly, growth can become impaired.

The more precise and stable the levels, the better the results. With regular, precise monitoring, fluctuations in levels can be quickly corrected, giving your corals the best chance of success.

Ideal for:

• Salt water aquariums
• Coral reef tanks
