A new, cost-effective instrument that lowers the cost of entry to multiparameter clean and waste water testing has been introduced by Camlab (UK).

The Camlab Water MC500 multiparameter colorimeter is designed to test more than 70 different clean and waste water testing parameters for the cost equivalent to two single parameter colorimeters.

The MC500’s design combines the mobility of a portable photometer with the characteristics of a modern laboratory photometer. The instrument addresses all the important parameters of water analysis, from aluminium to zinc. The high level of accuracy of Camlab water reagents and the user-friendliness of the MC500 enable rapid and reliable analysis of water samples for a variety of application markets including utilities, power, field measurement, aquaculture and industrial manufacturing.

Depending on the application, or the users’ requirements, this versatile instrument is capable of operating with powder pillows, tablets reagents or liquid reagents.

The easy-to-use MC500 features automatic wavelength selection and operates with six interference filters and uses long-life LEDs as a light-source. The MC500 has a memory capacity which is able to store up to 1000 data sets.
