Alkalinity monitor

K100286 · Mar 3, 2017

I just saw on Reef builders that Jonas Roman(sp)has partnered with a company to produce his alkalinity monitor. Does anyone have any news about this?

I'm looking forward to see Jim Welsh's come out with Neptune.

Which BTW Neptune is currently actively testing according to this screen shot in a video about their newly released flow monitors.

And the KH Guardian is already out but I hope the above two come out with a much more competitive price

I would worry about it's accuracy. And I don't know about putting the reagent back into the tank...

Why do you "worry"?

I would worry that it was testing correctly and not slowing defaulting over time.

The way I understand it works is it's doing a titration to get to a specific Ph level, same as we do now but we use a color change to indicate the endpoint, but since a probe can measure ph far more accurately then we can determine a color change it will always be very accurate.
