Basic Information
This process analyser was developed and
built for industrial waste water and
drinking water Industry. The main
advantages are the combined
measurement in one measurement step
and the use of non toxic and non
hazardous reagents.

Basic Information
This process analyser was developed and
built for industrial waste water and
drinking water Industry. The main
advantages are the combined
measurement in one measurement step
and the use of non toxic and non
hazardous reagents.
Industry. Nickel and Copper are used in
alloys (stainless steel), electroplating,
foundries, catalysts, welding rods and
coinage, and can be found in electronic
equipment, construction materials,
aerospace equipment and consumer
goods such as batteries, paints and
ceramics.
Drinking water. Copper concentrations
in drinking-water vary widely, with the
primary source most often being the
corrosion of interior copper plumbing. A
guideline value of 1.5 mg/litre was
recommended for copper in drinking
water.
Toxicity. Inhaled nickel compounds are
carcinogenic to humans and that metallic
nickel is possibly carcinogenic. Allergic
contact dermatitis is the most prevalent
effect of nickel in the general population.
Method
The Metal is measured as chelate
complex between metal ions in the waste
water and sensitive spectrophotometric
reagent dye. Change of the intensity of
the visible light throughout measurement
chamber containing formed metal
complex is directly proportional to metal
concentration.
Advantage of the system
Non dangerous chemistry and
reagents.
Robust design.
Minimal maintenance.
Easy handling.
High accuracy and precision.
Suitable for mission critical
applications.
Automated cleaning and
calibration.
