Iron HR reagent 1 measure dissolved and total iron, the metal behind red water complaints, staining on sanitaryware and fouling on membranes and resin beds. Borehole supplies carry iron in the reduced form, which stays invisible until it meets air.

Key features

• Reads iron, the usual cause of red water, staining and membrane fouling
• Ready-made reagent, so there is no weighing or dilution on the bench
• Supplied in 30 ml and 65 ml sizes, each with its own item code

Frequently asked questions

Why does my borehole water only go brown after standing?
Groundwater often carries iron in the dissolved ferrous form, which is colourless. Once it meets air it oxidises and drops out as rust-coloured floc.

Does this reagent work on its own?
Several photometric methods use two or three reagents in sequence. Check which components your method lists, and we will make sure the set is complete before it ships.

How should liquid reagents be stored?
Cool, dry and out of direct sunlight, with the cap firmly closed. Note the batch and expiry on the bottle, and work through the oldest stock first.
