Chlorine Test

[Nate1975]

What is the difference between a DPD and a FAS-DPD chlorine test kit?

 

[BoDarville]

The FAS-DPD test uses both a powder and a liquid reagent whereas the DPD uses only a liquid reagent. The big advantage of the FAS-DPD test is that it can read FC levels up to 50 ppm. In contrast, the DPD can read FC levels up to 5 ppm although it can read higher FC levels if you are willing to use diluted water samples. However, doing that can introduce more inaccuracies.

The FAS-DPD chlorine test is the one you want if you desire to follow our methods.
