Phosphate LR Reagent 2

Overview

Phosphate LR reagent 2 measure orthophosphate, which sits on both sides of the fence: dosed deliberately as a corrosion and scale inhibitor, and watched carefully in effluent because it drives algal blooms in the receiving water.

Key features

• Covers inhibitor dosing control and effluent phosphate compliance
• Ready-made reagent, so there is no weighing or dilution on the bench
• Supplied in 10 g and 20 g sizes, each with its own item code

Frequently asked questions

Why is phosphate measured in effluent?
Phosphate is usually the nutrient that limits algal growth, so discharge consents cap it. Too much in a river or dam feeds the blooms that strip oxygen from the water.

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.
