Now there is an
alternative to powder pillows, powder packets, tablets, glass ampoules, and liquid systems: eXact^® Strips™ have one or more test pads containing reagents for colourimetric detection of ions in water samples. By dipping a strip into a supplied vial, the reagent is released into the water sample. Discard the strip and match the colour in the vial to a colour chart. For even greater accuracy, the colour sample can be read in a colourimeter, like the one shown above (part number 481667), for analysis.

Packets are a
convenient way to package individual test strips. Providing total protection for the strip, foil packets are an ideal solution when you are working in varying conditions where the risk of exposure to extremely high humidity and moisture is possible. Each strip is carefully sealed in its own individual packet to protect it from exposure to moisture before you are ready to use it. Another benefit to foil packets is the size. Small enough to fit in your pocket, foil packets are an ideal solution when testing out in the field. Lastly, considering the size and protection of a foil packet, they are ideal to send to customers as a promotion or troubleshooting tool; saving you time and money compared to a service call.
