PRODACtest NO3 - Nitrate test

Water test for determining the nitrate concentration (NO3 - nitrate) - suitable for freshwater and saltwater aquariums

For the care of aquatic plants, it is essential to know the exact nitrate concentration in the aquarium. This is the only way to control the fertilisation with macronutrients, e.g. with Eudrakon N, accordingly. This water test enables you to reliably measure the nitrate concentration yourself on a regular basis.

Nitrate test set Instructions for use

  1. Rinse the cuvette several times with the water to be tested and then fill up with exactly 5 ml of water *
  2. Add 4 drops of reagent 1 and shake
  3. Add a level spatula of reagent 3 and shake vigorously for 1 minute
    The powder does not dissolve completely: for better colour matching, hold the tube at an angle until the powder has collected on the sides
  4. Add 4 drops of reagent 2 and shake again
    If nitrate is present in the water, the sample will change colour. After exactly 4 minutes you can read off the concentration
  5. Compare the colour of the sample with the colour table by holding the cuvette close to the colour that looks closest to you and looking through the cuvette from above

* The meniscus of the water surface must touch the 5 ml graduation mark exactly

Caution

Clean the cuvette after use, close the reagent bottles tightly and store in a cool, dry place away from light
Keep out of reach of children!
