The Easier the Better - Whole Volume Solids Standards
Using standards that comply with SM1020B, Section 3 really ought to be made easy, especially for analyses run every day. That has been the goal of our product development effort over the past year. We have some cool stuff in the pipeline and a number new easy-to-use standards and LCS products ready to ship.
One group of products is the Low, Mid and High Level standards. All are supplied as ready-to-use, 4 x 1000mL cases.
The Mid and High level solids standards (QCI-055 and QCI-055H respectively) are formulated to contain TDS, TSS and total solids. They are stable at room temperature, non-hazardous and really easy-to-use. All you have to do is shake the bottle well, and measure an appropriate sized aliquot. That is all there is to it - no pipeting, no dilutions and no formulating.
The Low Level TSS standard is formulated at 15-30mg/L. It is as easy-to-use as the Mid and High Level Standards and, because it is formulated at a low range, a high volume of the solution should be used per analysis. It is specifically formulated for MDL validations.
Part# QCI-055 Mid Level Solids Standard - $120.00 Per Case - TSS: 60-100 mg/L, TDS: 500-1500 mg/L, TS: 500-1600 mg/L
Part# QCI-055H High Level Solids Standard - $120.00 Per Case - TSS: 400-500 mg/L, TDS: 1000-3000 mg/L, TS: 1400-3500 mg/L
Part# QCI-057 Low Level TSS Standard - $100.00 Per Case - TSS: 15-30 mg/L
These stock products are value priced. We have developed a work cell approach to this product platform, and can even formulate these as custom standards economically, and in most cases only a small percent surcharge over the stock prices.
Check back soon at "The Standard Nation" to see a video demonstration of these products.
