Description
The MD 100 colorimeter is a single parameter colorimeter for water quality analysis. This line of rugged, waterproof instruments is lightweight and ideal for field testing or for use in the laboratory.
Chlorine is one of the most popular water quality testing parameters and the MD 100 Chlorine Colorimeter offers a testing solution to fit a wide variety of industries and applications.
This instrument is pre-programmed with two testing ranges for testing Free, Total and Combined Chlorine. Both ranges use the DPD method and utilize Lovibond® Powder Pack Reagents.
The MD 100 has several key features that make it a favorite among users.
-
Waterproof Design
The IP 68 design of this instrument ensures that the MD 100 remains water tight for up to 1 hour at 0.1 meter. Don't worry about dropping the instrument into a body of water - it floats! -
Accurate, Reproducible Results
The optical system of the MD 100 utilizes LEDs and interference filters which quickly gives you results that you can be confident in. -
User Calibration Mode
A one-point calibration is possible. Additionally, all MD 100 instruments have the ability to display readings directly in ABS or %T units. -
One-time-Zero Function
Don't waste time waiting for your instrument to Zero after each test. When testing a new sample, zero the instrument once and all subsequent tests of that sample do not require you to re-zero the instrument. -
Automatic Data Storage with Transfer Capabilities
The MD 100 automatically stores the last 16 readings with time and date stamp. These results can be transferred to a spreadsheet using the IRiM accessory. -
Ergonomic Design
Whether you're using the MD 100 out in the field or in the lab, the design of the instrument makes it easy to handle and view the display. If you're using the instrument in the lab, the rubber feet on the bottom of the housing eliminates the need for two hand operation or to chase your instrument around the workbench. -
Factory Programmed
All MD 100 instruments are supplied ready to use with up to 14 calibration curves. All you need to do is select the test you need, prepare your sample and test! -
Scroll Driven Menu System
The simple interface allows you to quickly reach the test you need. When the instrument is turned on, it will automatically display the last test used. - 2-Year Manufacturer's Warranty
