New Parameters Launched for Portable Parallel Analyser (PPA) Platform

Hach (USA) is excited to announce the much anticipated expansion of their Chemkey chemistries available for the Hach SL1000 Portable Parallel Analyser (PPA). The new Chemkey parameters include hardness, alkalinity, orthophosphate and iron - applicable for testing drinking water and boiler water.

“We are very excited to expand the Chemkey parameters available for drinking water and boiler water applications,” said Wendy Bretches, Global Product Manager at Hach.

The PPA platform offers faster testing of multiple parameters, greatly reduced variability from test to test and operator to operator, and significantly less hassle than traditional methods of testing. This simple hand-held instrument performs the same tests with less than half the manual steps compared with traditional methods, while producing highly accurate and reliable results. It is able to test up to four colorimetric and two probe-based parameters simultaneously.  By eliminating the need to run multiple tests back to back, the user saves time and money.

For boiler water and drinking water distribution systems, only Hach PPA can deliver error-proof field analysis of critical water parameters in as little as 10 minutes. With fewer manual steps, operators will have more time to focus on important aspects of their job. PPA is simple to use, offering operators of all skill levels the flexibility to test for the parameters that are relevant to their process. Due to the patented Chemkey design, results are consistent and repeatable, enabling operators to be confident in their results.
