Arsenic Test Kit, 0-500 ppb, 100 tests
-
No lab analysis needed - detect arsenic levels in the field to comply with the new EPA arsenic rule
-
Reliable test strip method recovers * of inorganic arsenic in water samples
About Arsenic:
Arsenic is an element that occurs naturally in the earth's crust. The weathering of rocks and erosion can deposit arsenic in water bodies. Exposure to arsenic at high levels poses serious health effects as it is a known human carcinogen. Hach's Arsenic Test Kits can measure below 10 parts per billion of arsenic.

Hach currently offers two arsenic test kits. The two kits differ in range, complexity, price, and performance:
Our Low Range Kit (Cat. # 2800000) has a range up to 500 ppb and is best for samples containing sulfide or arsenic-iron particles. It has excellent recovery of As+5 (*) and can measure organic arsenic with optional steps.
The EZ Arsenic Kit (Cat. # 2822800) has a range up to 4000 ppb, takes fewer steps, and is more economical. However, the high-range kit recovers only 90% of inorganic As+5, and has no option for measuring organic arsenic.
