Liquid Chemistry – Manual Test Kits: Parameter Carbonate Hardness (KH)
Measuring carbonate hardness (KH) is a key part of water analysis, especially in drinking water treatment, aquatics, heating systems, and monitoring of cooling or boiler water. Carbonate hardness directly influences the pH level and buffering capacity of water.
Typical areas of application:
• Drinking and domestic water analysis
• Aquariums and garden ponds
• Monitoring of heating and boiler water
• Water treatment systems

Frequently asked questions How long do Heyl chemicals last? The shelf life is printed on the label of each product. Upon delivery, the guaranteed shelf life is at least 7 months. Can Heyl reagents also be purchased individually? That depends on the specific item to be ordered. For Testoval products, only the complete refill pack can be ordered. The individual small bottles cannot be reordered separately. For the Duroval test kit, the individual components of the refill pack can also be reordered separately. Can the indicator and titration solution be purchased separately? Yes, this is possible for the Duroval product range. Where can I find the safety data sheet? The safety data sheet can be found directly with the product in our shop or separately in the download area under the relevant heading. How can the chemicals be disposed of? Disposal instructions can be found in section 13 of the safety data sheet. Disposal must be carried out in accordance with official regulations. Can the chemicals still be used after the expiry date? No, the chemicals can no longer be used after the expiry date. After the expiry date, accurate measurement results can no longer be guaranteed. How should Heyl chemicals be stored? Section 7 of the safety data sheet contains all relevant information on the storage of chemicals. The recommended storage temperature should be between 15-25°C.
