Low Range Chloride Test Kit
chloride concentration of 250 mg/l in drinking water has been estab-
lished for reasons of taste rather than as a safeguard against phys-
ical hazard.
(c) This test set provides a quantitative method for determin-
ing the concentration of chlorides in water.
When used in reconnaiss-
ance of raw water sources, a determination can be made as to the type
of process required; i.e., coagulation, ion exchange or distillation.
When used for analysis of product from a distillation unit, the results
should indicate 15 mg/l or less.
If the chloride content exceeds 15
mg/l, this is an indication of possible foam carryover or leakage in
the heat exhanger.
