Copper


Corrosion products from copper pipes produce soluble copper in potable water supplies , affecting water colour and taste. Copper is also generated along with silver as part of electrolytic sterilisation of water systems.

Chelated copper is also used in aquariums and swimming pools as an algicide.

Kittiwake copper test kits enable fast, on-site analysis using the Smart 2 multiparameter Photometer , or ECON Comparator . Test strips also provide a quick, simple and economical test method.

The table below gives a chart of recommended tests.
