Hanna HI-3824 Ammonia Test Kit for Fresh Water HI3824 The Hanna HI 3824 chemical test kit is designed to measure concentrations of ammonia in rivers and drinking water reservoirs which indicates the presence of agriculture or urban pollution.

When the concentration of ammonia is high enough, it can alter the smell and taste of water. In industrial applications, high concentrations of ammonia can cause corrosion in pipes. Ammonia is also monitored in aquariums and fish farming applications because of its toxicity to fish.

The HI 3824 ammonia test kit determines the ammonia concentration in water in several easy steps. The Nessler reagent reacts with ammonia, under strong alkaline conditions, to form a yellow coloured complex. Kit supplied with 20ml plastic beaker, colour comparison cube, 20ml ammonia reagent 1 and 20ml Nessler reagent

Complete setup

• All required materials are included with the test kit, such as the sample beaker, color comparison cube, and reagent dropper bottles

.

High resolution

• Readings from 0.0 to 2.5 mg/L NH3-N are determined to 0.5 mg/L resolution.

Replacement reagents available

• There is no need to buy a new kit when reagents are exhausted. The HI3824-025 reagent set can be ordered to replace the reagents supplied with the kit. This reagent set comes with 1 (20mL) dropper bottle of Ammonia Reagent 1 for Fresh Water and 1 (20mL) dropper bottle of Nessler Reagent.

Significance of Use

Groundwater normally contains ammonia due to bacterial decay of plants and animals. However, concentrations of ammonia in rivers and drinking water reservoirs may indicate the presence of agricultural runoff or urban pollution. When the concentration of ammonia is high enough, it can alter the smell and taste of water. In industrial applications, high concentrations of ammonia can cause corrosion in pipes. Ammonia is also monitored in fresh water aquariums and fish farming applications because of its toxicity to fish.
