Silicate measurement for industrial water treatment and medical technology

Silicate measurement is a decisive factor for industrial water treatment and for sensitive applications in the medical environment. By reliably monitoring the silicon dioxide (SiO₂) content in water, you can prevent scale formation, corrosion, process disruptions and unnecessary downtime. This protects your systems and reduces operating costs in the long term.



Why silicate measurement?

  • Prevent hard, glassy deposits in boilers and turbines
  • Protect against corrosion and high repair costs
  • Ensure stable processes in RO and EDI systems
  • Compliance with relevant standards in the medical sector (DGSV, AKI)
  • Early fault diagnosis through continuous online monitoring

Typical areas of application

  1. Silicate measurement in boiler and boiler systems

    • Advantage: Protection of heat exchangers, turbines and steam generators. This is because silica/SiO₂ can form hard, sometimes glass-like deposits at high temperatures, which cause heat loss, corrosion and mechanical stress.
    • Benefits: Fewer deposits, lower maintenance costs, longer service life, corrosion prevention, avoidance of expensive downtimes thanks to suitable cleaning and downtime strategies.

Original Heyl Testomat 808 SiO₂ Reagent A – Reliable Silicate Measurement First reagent for Testomat 808 SiO₂ measurement The Testomat 808 SiO₂ Reagent A is used to measure the silicate content in water (SiO₂) and is one of the two necessary reagents for silicate measurement with the Testomat 808 Silicate system. SiO₂ Reagent A initiates photometric silicate determination in the Testomat® 808 SiO₂. The measurement range is 0.3–1.2 ppm SiO₂. Reagent A is precisely calibrated to the measurement method of the Testomat 808 Silicate and allows reliable silicate measurement in the range of 0.3 to 1.2 ppm SiO₂. It is ideal for use in RO process water treatment, e.g., in clinical environments. Using the original reagent ensures consistently precise results, which are essential for stable process monitoring. Heyl Original Indicator for Silicate Monitoring in RO Process Water Treatment Using original Heyl reagents ensures not only high measurement accuracy but also proper operation of the Testomat 808 SiO₂ and the retention of warranty and guarantee claims. It is ideal for clinical applications where reliable silicate monitoring is critical. For example, in sterilization of medical instruments, silicate monitoring in RO process water plays a key role in protecting and preserving medical devices.
