Measuring iron in water with the Testomat

Reliable water quality through rapid iron analysis

The iron concentration in water is a decisive factor for drinking water quality, technical installations, and well water. Excessive iron contamination can cause discoloration, unpleasant taste, and deposits in pipes.

Why iron measurement is important:

• Surface changes: Iron can attack pipes, wells, or lines and cause corrosion.
• Groundwater supply: Regular monitoring ensures that water from wells or public sources complies with legal limits.
• Use of well water: Safe iron concentrations are particularly important for private or agricultural use in order to protect equipment and pumps.
