  • Surface water
Aluminum

Description

The determination ranges of the aluminum analyzer vary from trace μg/L to 20 mg/L Al3+ using the (optional) internal dilution  module.

Method

In a pH 6.2 to 6.4 buffered solution pyrocatechol violet and Al(III) form a blue colored compound. The absorbance intensity is proportional to the aluminum concentration in the sample and is measured at 572 nm.

Features

Measured parameter Al3+
