Measuring pH of pure water. The measurement of pure water pH can be one of the quickest indicators of process contamination in the production or distribution of pure water. The presence of gaseous contaminants such as air or carbon dioxide will shift the pH of the pure water, indicating air or gas intrusion into the process line. The exhaustion of resin beds used to prepare ...
