ACCURATE AND AFFORDABLE PHOSPHATE MEASUREMENT
Orthophosphates are found in natural and waste waters. They are commonly added to drinking water as a corrosion inhibitor.



The instantaneous analysis of orthophosphate by colorimetric determination provides rapid results using a standard analysis technique. The HANNA HI 713 Checker®HC bridges the gap between simple chemical test kits and professional instrumentation. Chemical test kits are not very accurate and only give 5 to 10 points resolution while professional instrumentation can cost hundreds of dollars and can be time consuming to calibrate and maintain. The HANNA HI 713 Checker®HC is accurate and affordable. The HI 713 Checker®HC portable handheld colorimeter features a resolution of 0.01 ppm (250 points) and 4% ±0.04 accuracy of reading.



The HI 713 Checker® HC uses an adaptation of Standard Method 4500-P E. The contoured style of this Checker®HC fits in your palm and pocket perfectly and the large LCD is easy to read. The auto shut-off feature assures the battery life will not be drained if you forget to turn it off. The HI 713 Checker®HC is extremely simple to use.



First, zero the instrument with your water sample. Next, add the reagent. Last, Place the vial into the HI 713 Checker®HC, press the button and read the results. It’s that easy.

I am in.

How much are the reagents?

I just got off the phone with Hanna Canada, the item is so new that they barely know about it; however, Canadian pricing, availability, and reagent accessories prices have been promised to me by Monday of next week.

+1 for me.

While we are at it I also need a new pH meter. Darn kids.

We can add a PH meter to your order if you like.....

Everyone interested should take a look at this PDF specification sheet for the Checker.

http://hannainstusa.com/hannachecker.../Phosphate.pdf

I"m interested but will have to wait on the price of the unit and cost of reagents.

I will take one and a box of reagent refills.

The Meter retails for $40.00 U.S. so I am imagine it will be somewhere in the range of $40.00 - $50.00 dollars. I will know more about this once CDN pricing has been set.

I am interested but depends on pricing as well.

+1 :biggrin:

I'm interested but I want to see what the reagent costs are as that will affect total cost of ownership :)

~ Update
Correction....

The Reagents are exactly the same reagents used for the more expensive Hanna Phosphate Photometer. 125 of these can be purchased for about $30.00 U.S.

Here is a Reef Central thread dedicated to this tester.........

I am interested.

I will take one and a box of reagents.

Don't need 125 reagents. Will never use them before they expire.


Just wondering if they have smaller quantities or if any body would split a box
$10 for 41/42 tests split 3 ways?

I'm interested in one, and a box of 25 reagents.

25 Reagents are about $10-$12

I would be in depending on the final price...sometimes to "Canadianize" something doubles it's cost.:sad: Plus I would want to get about 25 regents as well.

Sign me up! I hate test kits! Probably why I can't remember the last time I tested my water!?!
Keith.

The price will be good, we will obtain them from the U.S. if the CDN pricing is not attractive enough for us..... We are crafty.

Count me in if there close to that price :D

I want one plus the reagents.

+1

Interested as well.

What's shipping to Edmonton?

Shipping would likely be in the $10-$15 dollar range.....

I need another fish tank gizmo like I need another hole in the head but I may get one. If the price + shipping is less than what you will normally retail it for I will probably buy one. But if its cheeper for me to buy one in person at a later date and not pay for shipping I'll likely do that instead.

I'm in for one and 25 reagents.

Count me in meter and reagents need a ph meter as well:biggrin:

Ian
How about offering to bring in other products from Hanna such as the HI718 iodine Checker HC?

You bet, we will be offering all the Checkers applicable to our hobby including the PH, Iodine, and Phosphate.

Thanks for the request....

Sweet lets see the pricing for the checkers and reagents. Count me in for phosphate and iodine.

I'm in for a Phosphate plus 25 regents and a iodine checker depending on prices.

Same for me.

Okay,

So far so good? anyone else for the Iodine or PH pens?

Put me down for one of the phosphate checkers + 25 reagents too :smile:
