Title:

Portable Water Analysis Kit
Value Proposition:

Portable Water analysis kit for determining physico-chemical and bacterial parameters in drinking water.
Summary Application:

The kit is useful for the assessment of drinking water quality in remote areas and can be operated by a person with minimum training. The kit can perfom chemical and bacteriological tests to ensure safety of drinking water.
Advantages:
  • The kit is simple in operation.
  • Provides quantitative and qualitative results of bacteriological (fecal coliform) and physico-chemical parameters (pH, TDS, total hardness, chloride, residual chlorine, nitrate, fluoride, sulphate, iron and arsenic) as per BIS and WHO guidelines for drinking water.
  • The kit can also be operated in a 1 KVA generator in the absence of 220 V electric supply.
  • Economical and portable with approx 12 kg weight.
