New Arsenic Sensors Enhance Water Testing Solutions

14 Aug, 2023

Published over 2 years ago. See the latest and most current information on Laboratory products.

Palintest has introduced a range of new arsenic sensors which can now be used in its portable Kemio™ Heavy Metals and Kemio™ Multi testing solutions.

The Kemio™ Heavy Metals and Kemio™ Multi systems don’t require any specialist training and tests can be performed on-site in minutes, meaning that a user can test for arsenic across more locations in a single day.

Palintest’s solutions provide users with a safer testing method than other common field-testing procedures, which use toxic chemicals such as mercury bromide in the testing process.

Kemio™ Heavy Metals and Kemio™ Multi have been designed for use in remote, hard to reach areas away from laboratory and healthcare infrastructure.

The new sensors used in Palintest’s Kemio™ Heavy Metals and Kemio™ Multi can detect arsenic from 2 to 250 μg/L.

The use of arsenic sensors with Palintest’s Kemio™ technology can enable governments, water companies, NGOs and communities to identify areas of arsenic contamination more quickly, take immediate action when harmful levels are identified, and mitigate risk.

Kemio™ Heavy Metals and Kemio™ Multi both have an IP67 rated waterproof design, which means they can be operated in wet and humid environments, and do not require laboratory-grade handling.

Kemio™ products also automatically log test data and store results. This provides traceable and auditable data, which can enable organisations carrying out testing to demonstrate regulatory compliance.
