Reducing life cycle costs

Reagent consumption has been reduced to 1/10 of our previous amounts. With the reagent delivery service, there is no need for reagent preparation. The effort and running costs associated with reagent replacement are reduced to approximately 1/2 compared to our previous amounts.

*1:  Channel-based compatibility with the former CODA-200 series products is available (standard).
*2:   This means the optionally addable specifications such as 2-point measuring, 2 ranges and reagent line cleaning,and also means using the reagent cleaning function of CODA-500-C.
*3:   To be specified when you place an order.
*4:   If silver nitrate is not used, the performance in the specifications is not warranted.
*5:   If tap water is used, first perform flushing for about 30 minutes and then send tap water to the CODA-500.For the version using a tank, use deionized water of 10 mS/m (=1.0 μS/cm) maximum.
*6:   When the reagent cleaning function is not used, the concentration is up to 1 time the full-scale value. The setting of reagent cleaning function can be switched depending on the chloride ion concentration in the sample water.
*7:   Use the reagents designated by our company. If any other reagents are used, no measured values are warranted.When reagent cleaning function is set, reagent consumption may grow.
*8:   Use sodium oxalate for the oxygen method or sodium oxalate containing 0.1 g/L manganese sulfate for the alkaline method.

The total volume control of water quality at companies which discharge waste water to a closed water area is implemented by the environmental agency. This regulation requires using a conversion equation for the method of obtaining the correlation between the values measured with an automatic COD monitor and those (by the designated measurement method) measured through the manual analysis specified in 17 of JIS K 0102. Before use, conduct the manual analysis and enter the conversion factor to the CODA-500.
