Ammonia
Ammonia occurs as a breakdown product of nitrogenous materials in natural waters. It is also found in domestic effluents and certain industrial waste waters. Ammonia is harmful to fish and other forms of aquatic life, and the ammonia level must be carefully controlled in water used for fish farms and aquariums. Ammonia tests are routinely applied for pollution control on effluent and waste waters, and for the monitoring of drinking water supplies.
When ammonia dissolves in water, a significant amount of the ammonia becomes ammonium.
The following products are available to test for Ammonia:
ammo::lyser Eco
The Ammo::lyser Eco provides high-quality, real-time monitoring of ammonia levels. Minimal maintenance required. Includes automatic compensation for temperature and (optionally) pH and/or nitrate (NO3-N).
ammo::lyser Pro
The Ammo::lyser Pro improves on the Ammo::lyser Eco by adding potassium compensation. Minimal maintenance required. Includes automatic compensation for temperature, potassium, and (optionally) pH and/or nitrate (NO3-N).
Comparator Kits
Comparator tests use visual standards to assess the colour produced when reagents are added to a sample of water. Tablet reagents are used with these kits for maximum simplicity and convenience.
