The most widely used disinfectant for drinking water, chlorine is also important for sanitizing swimming pools, cooling towers, other industrial equipment, and in the treatment of municipal wastewater. Its measurement and control are vital for both safety and economic reasons. Chlorine exists in water as “free” chlorine (hypochlorite) or “combined” chlorine (chloramines). With Hach Water Quality Test Strips, technicians in the field can test many samples in only a few minutes and make immediate evaluations on-site.
