Water Tracer Detection Using Handheld Fluorometer

 

　Water-tracing dyes can be used in many useful applications. By adding dye to the water system in question, we can conduct plumbing/piping tracing, leak detection, checking for illegal tapping, pollution studies, natural waterflow analysis (rivers, lakes, ocean currents, cave waterflows, groundwater filtration, etc.), and sewer and stormwater analysis. In addition, in a cooling water system where treatment chemical agents are added to the circulating water to prevent pipelines and equipment from corrosion, scaling, fouling and microbial problems, water tracing dye can be added to the treatment to allow active monitoring of the concentration of the chemical agents to sustain effectiveness of the treatment.

　hVI offers three light-weight handheld fluorometers for detecting common types of water tracing dyes: PTSA, fluorescein, and Rhodamine WT. Its exceptional sensitivity, rapid-reading, and reliability in a convenient field kit can be used to detect trace amount (less than 1 ppb) of tracing dye with one single step, right on the spot. Built-in USB interface allows user to retrieve up to 3x80 data points for analysis in the laboratory. We can also provide dual-channel model of your wavelength selections for more flexible applications.
