Colour Wheel Comparator.....(Checker Disk Test Kits)....

The colour wheel comparator works in a almost identical way to the Chemical test kit using the technology of Colourimetric to provide a greater accuracy and resolution. The Checker disk is a colour comparison wheel shaded from dark to light in proportion to the concentration of the chemical parameter being tested.

The Colour wheel comparator kit works by using a sample of the pond water and adding a small amount of the chemical reagent, For Chlorine the reagent is known as DPD which reacts with the Chlorine found in the water sample to turn the water pink the depth of the colour which shows up is how you will then determine the strength of the chemical found in the water.

Rather than holding up the coloured sample next to a card as you do with the Chemical Test Kit the colour wheel kit comes complete with a dropper, you simply use this to drop a small amount of your sample onto the colour wheel and then slowly turn the wheel to match the sample to the reading colour.

This method reads far more accurately, this is because when you use the chemical test you are holding the sample in the light which will then inadvertently alter the colour created meaning each test is always going to differ slightly.

The Kit is provided with a Colour Wheel appropriate to the parameter you are testing for and a dropper. Measures total chlorine using the DPD chemical method. Kit contains everything needed to carry out 100 individual tests.

An important note to remember when deciding on a Chlorine tester is that whilst the colour changing kits are the lower end of budget we don't all see colours in the same way.....But the final choice would be down to a How much you want to spend VS How accurate you want the result......
