The HI717 Checker® HC (Handheld Colorimeter) provides a simple, accurate and cost effective way to measure phosphate. Phosphate is a common food additive that enhances flavour and acts as a buffering agent. Important for growth and development of plant roots, phosphate is also present in fertilizers. However, high concentrations of phosphates are detrimental to the environment; for this reason, it is closely monitored in both natural and municipal water systems. Designed as a more accurate alternative to chemical test kits, the HI717 provides quick, accurate results in a few easy steps.
