Palintest supplies a comprehensive range of products for environmental control of waters, effluent and waste waters. Our products cover all the important parameters such as COD, ammonia and nitrates.
Due to increasing pressure from legislation there is a growing requirement to carry out routine analysis on waste waters prior to discharge. The Palintest Tubetests range, of which the COD tubes are one product line, covers all the main parameters needed for water and effluent monitoring, including Ammonia, Nitrate, Total Nitrogen, Phosphate, Total Phosphorous, Nickel, Chromium, Iron, Zinc and Copper.
COD Tubetests System

Chemical oxygen demand (COD) is a vital test for assessing the quality of effluents and waste waters prior to discharge. The COD test predicts the oxygen requirement of the effluent and is used for the monitoring and control of discharges, and for assessing treatment plant performance. The Palintest COD Tubetests system offers a method which is both practical and convenient. The reagents are supplied premixed keeping potentially hazardous chemicals to a minimum. The test is simply carried out by adding the sample to the tube, closing the cap and then digesting for two hours at 150°C. The tubes are then cooled and the test colour measured using a Palintest photometer.
Tubetests for Metals

The Palintest Tubetests Metals Photometer and reagents offer a cost effective, professional system for water analysis. Tests now include copper, nickel, iron, chromium and zinc, as well as the established COD, Ammonia, Nitrate and Phosphate tests.
Tubetests for Ammonia, Nitrate & Phosphate Testing

The Tubetests range of tests covers the principal parameters needed for environmental control of waters, effluents and waste waters, and for the testing of agricultural run-off and leachate from landfill sites. In particular, they cover the testing requirements of the UK Urban Waste Water Directive and equivalent legislation in other countries.
Photometer 8000

The Palintest Photometer 8000 sets a new standard for water quality testing and ease of operation. It is designed to provide accurate and fast analysis for even the busiest test labs. Covering the full range of tests for clean and wastewater, it is compatible with all Palintest tablet and liquid photometer tests.
Photometer 7500

The Palintest 7500 takes portable water testing to new heights. The smooth good looks cover a solidly engineered instrument with a high specification and high performance. Built around the Palintest range of water test reagents, the 7500 has automatic wavelength selection for each of its pre-programmed methods.
Photometer 7100

The New Photometer 7100 is fully integrated with the Palintest system of water analysis. It offers a great value instrumental analysis for an extensive range of water tests.
Ammonia 1000 Meter

The Palintest 1000 Ammonia Meter is a precision dual range Photometer for measuring Ammonia concentration in water. The ranges available are 0 - 15 mg/l N and 0 - 50 mg/l N. The single parameter meter is used in conjunction with the Tubetests Nessler reagent. The system provides a quick and simple but accurate way to monitor ammonia levels.
Sewage Effluent Kit

The Palintest Sewage Effluent Kit provides a simple means of checking the quality of sewage effluents. It is used extensively for control testing at small sewage works. Based on simplified methods of sewage effluent testing, the kit contains tests for the essential quality control checks required for the day-to-day operation of sewage effluent treatment plants.
