ColorPlus – Absorption meter

The two parameters UV-absorption and colour are important factors when monitoring the quality of potable water. The absorption at 254 nm wavelength reacts on humid substances and additionally shows the presence of other organic compounds such as oils, aromatics, solvents and other. By means like activated carbon filtration these substances need to be removed. Studies have shown that for most ...
