Water Hardness Meter – Reliable Measurement of Water Hardness
Water hardness meters are essential instruments for determining the hardness level of water, primarily caused by the concentration of calcium and magnesium ions. Accurate water hardness measurement helps prevent scaling in pipes and equipment and optimizes water treatment processes.
Why water hardness meters are important:
- Prevention of scale buildup and damage to technical systems
- Optimization of softening and water treatment processes
- Ensuring compliance with quality standards
- Support for chemical dosing
The hardness of water is formed by dissolved salts. In natural waters, hardness is formed mainly from magnesium and calcium hydrogen carbonate and sulfate dissolved from the soil and / or aquifers.
The more salts dissolved in the water, the harder the water becomes. Since the composition of the geological subsoil varies greatly from region to region, a wide variety of water hardnesses and compositions are encountered in practice.
Other input pathways include dissolution by acidic components of precipitation or by nitric acid from nitrification resulting from agricultural fertilization.

The device provides continuous, reliable measurement results in the range of 0.05–25 °dH. The instruments were developed for use in multiparameter systems and for connection to higher-level control systems. Fully automatic residual hardness measurement for laboratory and process water using Testomat LAB High-precision titrimetric hardness determination with data logging The Testomat LAB TH combines high measurement accuracy with easy integration into existing measurement and automation concepts. Automatic titration using a piston dosing pump enables continuous, low-maintenance acquisition of water hardness values. All measurement data are logged in a structured format on an integrated SD card or optionally on an SDHC card. The standard interfaces 4–20 mA and RS232 allow direct data transfer to higher-level control and process control systems. Application areas of the Testomat LAB TH and LAB TH-R (Remote) Flexible use in laboratory, process, and drinking water monitoring Water treatment plants Drinking water systems Industrial boilers Process water monitoring Technical highlights and performance features of the Testomat LAB TH The Testomat LAB TH features optical water detection during filling of the measuring chamber, automatic venting of the indicator line, and an integrated self-test for continuous system monitoring. Benefits of hardness measurement within the LAB multiparameter system Thanks to the integration capabilities of the Testomat LAB in a manufacturer-independent multiparameter system, precise and continuous online monitoring of water hardness is possible within a central measurement platform. Automatic titrimetric measurement delivers reliable and reproducible results and can be easily integrated into existing process and control systems via standardized interfaces. This increases process reliability and reduces maintenance and personnel costs.
The Testomat® LAB TH determines the water hardness (residual total hardness) fully automatically by use of titration and has been developed for monitoring the water quality of water treatment plants, drinking water plants, industrial boilers and for monitoring process water and the Testomat® LAB CL is a robust, wet chemical online measuring converter to measure the concentration of total chlorine or free chlorine in the measuring range 0 - 5 mg/l. The instrument is suitable for controlling the water quality of water treatment plants, drinking water plants, process water monitoring and for monitoring the chlorine concentration in the cooling tower process. Instrument operation is based on the DPD method according to EN ISO 7393-2. The analysis is carried out through the addition of two reagents and the measurement result is obtained after a reaction time of approx. 60 seconds (pure measurement time without flush time). In view of the fact that the Testomat® LAB TH and Testomat® LAB CL was developed for use in multi-parameter systems or for connection to a higher-level control system, we hereby offer you both Testomat® LAB analysis devices in combination with the NeoTecMaster®, which was specially developed by our company, as a package solution at a preferential price. The 4-channel NeoTecMaster® multi-parameter controller included in this package enables the processing of up to four measurement signals in this version. A signal input on the NeoTecMaster® , in this case the RS232 interface and one additional RS232 interface on the included NeoTec Slave module , are used by Testomat® LAB TH and Testomat® LAB CL to display the measured value, the trend and the status messages on the 5 inch screen. In addition to the on board RS232 interface, the NeoTecMaster® also has a Modbus RTU input, which you can use freely after brief technical consultation with us. (Pre-check whether your existing measurement technology to be integrated requires adjustments). The NeoTecMaster® can be systematically supplemented with further optional NeoTec modules (function / signal converter modules) as required, thus enabling the future realisation of further control concepts in a flexible manner. A module that fundamentally expands the range of functions and is already included in the scope of delivery is our NeoTec slave relay module with which you can add potential-free relay contacts to the overall system. You can freely assign these to the incoming measurement signals and thus, for example, implement limit value-related control concepts, as well as output measurement-related messages. Further advantages of the NeoTecMaster: Simple operation Integration of the Testomat® world of instruments, here in conjunction with the Testomat® LAB TH and Testomat® LAB CL Integration into the existing control cabinet, alternatively we offer our NeoTecMaster® housing Modular range of functions can be extended by NeoTec slave and signal converter modules (measurement, control, regulation) Available as built-in or surface-mounted variant Structured continuous data recording on the integrated SD card or optionally available SDHC card (2Gbyte) as a file in CSV format In addition, there are proven Testomat® LAB functionalities: Optimised water detection based on an optical measuring method RS232 interface for transmission of measured values and error messages Import and export of settings (basic programming) Logging of measurement data and messages/alarms via integrated SD card or optionally usable SDHC card (2GByte) Firmware update via SD card Execution of parameterisation by means of SD card or "Service Monitor" software via mini-USB (on the unit side) to USB 2.0 (e.g. PC/notebook) Multilingual software menu in German, English, French, Dutch; Portuguese Integrated self-test with continuous monitoring Automatic venting of the indicator line Compact design Performance profil Testomat® LAB TH: High-precision titration by means of piston metering pump Reliable and low-maintenance operation Minimal indicator and water consumption Analogue output 4 - 20 mA for transmission of measured values Programmable hardness unit in °dH, °f, ppm CaCO3, mmol/l Collective alarm output Indicator quantities: 500 ml bottles Analysis trigger: - Automatic interval operation (interval pause adjustable from 0-255 minutes) - External analysis input (start/stop) - Manual start Performance profil Testomat® LAB CL: High-precision peristaltic pumps Reliable and low-maintenance operation Minimal reagent and water consumption Analog output 4 - 20 mA for transmission of measured values RS232 interface for transmission of measured values & fault messages Common alarm output Optimised reagents: Only 2 reagents for the determination of total chlorine Optimised reagent set: filling quantities are coordinated so that the reagent set is used up almost evenly.
