ECON Cooling Water Test Equipment

Recirculating cooling water requires carefully chosen chemical treatments. This helps to minimise microbiological ontamination, scaling of critical parts such as heat exchangers and to prevent corrosion.

To be most effective, treatments must be maintained within specific control parameters, as excess inhibitor can have as detrimental an effect as too little.The ECON range of test kits and equipment for cooling water contain all equipment and test reagents required to optimise treatments and monitor critical control parameters quickly, safely and accurately, ensuring optimum output and efficiency.

Standard Test Kits for Cooling Water

A range of multi-parameter ECON test kits are available for the monitoring and control of inhibitors dosed into cooling water to control scale, corrosion and microbiological activity.

FG-K28600-KW: Closed System Inhibitor Test Kit

A small kit for the measurement of nitrite based corrosion inhibitors, added to closed cooling water systems. pH Test Strips are also included for pH control.

FG-K25083-KW: Cooling Water No. 1 Test Kit

This kit contains tests for M Alkalinity , Chloride and Calcium Hardness. A pocket pH test meter is also included.

Housed in a medium black plastic case, there is additional space for up to 2 x 30ml reagents, 1 x reagent pot and 1 x ECON Test Meter (choose from the test kit upgrades below).

FG-K25084-KW: Cooling Water No. 2 Test Kit

This kit contains tests for M Alkalinity , Chloride , Calcium Hardness, Chlorine Comparator , Phosphonate and pH Test Strips . A pocket conductivity/TDS test meter is also included.

Housed in a robust aluminium case, there is additional space for up to 13 x 65ml reagents, 5 x 30 ml reagents, 3 x Test Strips and 1 x ECON Test Meter
