LaMotte DC1100 Colorimeter - Manual (Page 3)

THE MODEL DC1100 COLORIMETER
The DC1100 colorimeter has been specially calibrated to read the test result
directly in parts per million (ppm) of a desired substance (i.e. ppm chlorine,
ppm phosphate). The sensitivity of the DC1100’s response has been maximized
by selecting a specific, complimentary light source for each test. The light
chosen is absorbed by the color of the test solution. For example, a green light
is used for reactions that will produce a red sample. Since green light is
absorbed in a red solution, the detector can respond to minute variations in the
intensity of the transmitted light.
MODEL DC1100 SINGLE-PARAMETER TEST KITS
The DC1100 can be supplied with reagents for a variety of tests, including
wastewater monitoring, industrial process control, boiler and cooling water
testing, pool and spa water testing, public health inspection, environmental
studies, aquaculture, hydroponics, and other general water analysis applications.
The meter, reagents, glassware and accessories are packaged in foam in a
compact carrying case for easy transportation and field use.
