HI38000 | Hanna Sulfate Test Kit 20-100 mg/L

Protect your infrastructure and water quality with the Hanna HI38000 Sulfate Chemical Test Kit, a reliable turbidimetric testing solution designed for drinking water, industrial effluents, and construction projects in Pakistan. Sulfate ($SO_4^{2-}$) is a common ion that, in high concentrations, gives water a bitter taste, has a laxative effect on humans, and—critically—can cause severe cracking and degradation in concrete structures.

The HI38000 utilizes the Barium Chloride Turbidimetric method to measure sulfate levels within the 20 to 100 mg/L (ppm) range. The kit works by precipitating sulfate as barium sulfate, which creates cloudiness in the sample; the level of visibility is then measured to determine the concentration. It comes fully equipped with reagents for 100 tests, two glass cylinders, and a plastic spoon, offering a simple and cost-effective way to ensure compliance with health and construction standards.

Frequently Asked Questions:

• Q: Why is sulfate testing critical for construction?

  • A: Sulfate ions in soil or water react with the components of cement, causing expansion and cracking (sulfate attack). Testing the water used in mixing concrete is essential to ensure the longevity of buildings and roads.

• Q: How does the turbidimetric method work?

  • A: You add the reagent to the sample, which reacts with sulfate to form a white precipitate (cloudiness). You then pour the cloudy sample into a tube until a black spot at the bottom disappears. The height of the liquid corresponds to the sulfate concentration.

• Q: Can I buy refill reagents?

  • A: Yes. Once the initial 100 tests are used, you can purchase the HI38000-10 replacement reagent kit to continue using the original glass cylinders.
