Parameters that can be measured in salt water with the help of a PoolWaterLAB
The following parameters can be tested in salty water
| Parameter | Fresh water | Saltwater | Seawater |
|---|---|---|---|
| Active oxygen | ✔ | ✔ | |
| Alkalinity | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ |
| Bromine | ✔ | ✔ | |
| Chlorine | ✔ | ✔ | |
| Chlorine dioxide | ✔ | ✔ | |
| Cyanuric acid | ✔ | ✔ | |
| Total hardness | ✔ | ||
| Calcium hardness | ✔ | ✔ | |
| Ozone | ✔ | ✔ | |
| pH | ✔ | ✔ * | |
| Hydrogen peroxide | ✔ | ✔ |
* Special case pH measurement
Depending on the salt content of your sample, the measurement result must be corrected according to the following scheme:
1 molar = -0,21 pH
2 molar = -0,26 pH
3 molar = -0,29 pH
where: 1 mol salt (NaCl) = 5.8 % = 58.4 g/l
Pools with salt electrolysis are not affected.
In salt electrolysis, a maximum of 7 g/l salt is used, far less than 1 mol (58.4 g).
