What kind of handheld chlorine analyzers are y’all using?
I need a high-ish range handheld/bench meter to verify our online hach probes. It looks like the high range Hach DR300 only goes up to about 10mg/L, but our residuals can get up to 20 in our reclaim system.
Our district uses the Palintest Kemio, which is a cool little system that uses strips instead of powder/other reagents. BUT, their customer service has been abysmal. Our test strips are expired(and using the wrong range) and I’ve been trying to order some for almost 2 months now with no luck. I received a quote within the first two days, but there were errors and I asked for them to be corrected, since I could not submit what I had received. Since then, silence from the company. I’ve emailed the quote sender and their general sales email multiple times with no response.
If I can find a third party kemio reagent vendor, I’ll take it. But I wouldn’t mind going with a different brand that has more trustworthy customer service.
I’ve also been eyeballing the Hanna colorimeters, which I know are fairly trusted in the reef/fishkeeping community. But I’m not sure how well they stand up against more commercial brands
