ELOS Marine PH Aquarium Gallery Factory Store

The pH-value or acid value indicates how acidic or alkaline water is. It is a measure of the concentration of the acidic or alkaline components in a hydrous solution. Pure water will react neutral and has a pH-value of 7. If the acidic components are predominant, the pH value will drop below 7. If the basic components predominate, the pH value will rise above 7.

In sea water aquariums the optimum pH value is between 8.2 and 8.5 . Many organisms will react with high sensitivity to large variations of the pH-value An overly large drop or rise should be avoided whenever possible. Therefore a regular check of the pH-level is elementary necessary to note and to avoid any negative development.

The pH-reagent from ELOS especially developed for marine aquarium allows the determination of the pH-value with the help of a finely tuned colour scale which shows a range of 7.6 – 9,0 pH-units

• Precise, thanks to the calibrated droplet

• Simple to use

• Equipped with precision colour chart, measuring vial and syringe

• Practical thanks to the easy-opening pack 

 

In order to maintain good water quality, a range of test kits that offer accuracy, consistency and support, is an integral part of a successful aquarium. ELOS AquaTest Kits are designed, manufactured and tested, to standards that are unparalleled in this industry. All ELOS AquaTest kits provide the following:

 

Calibrated droppers: our bottles are designed to provide a consistent drop size, which is a key element in testing – regardless of who is squeezing the bottle the drop remains consistent. Many less expensive brands will rely on the cheapest possible bottles, syringes and tips that can easily skew the test results.

 

While all chemicals should be considered dangerous and handled accordingly, ELOS uses the highest quality reagents that are non-toxic. All ELOS boxes, instructions and reagents are clearly labelled along with childproof packaging – that amazingly is not found in some of our competitors who base their kits largely on toxic chemicals!

 

 Of course, it is more costly to use such a high grade of reagents, use proper packaging and labels, but we feel it is necessary. In some kits you will even notice a raised label for people who are vision impaired.

 

Validation of each Reagent batch: using NIST (National Institute of Standard and Technology) certified samples. While some may claim to use, ‘lab quality components’ in their kits, ELOS validates each batch of reagents using these NIST certified samples.

 

Careful batch management: all chemical test kits are susceptible to damage from extreme temperatures.  ELOS carefully ships and stores our test kits before they ship to the retailer or final customer. This is a vital step that often is neglected.

 

Written and illustrated instructions along with professionally calibrated colour charts (when needed) make it easy for beginners through to experts, to use the kit correctly. Expiration dates, batch and lot numbers in every kit and every reagent, allow us to carefully track.

 

When purchasing your next kit compare our track record of reliability, consistency and support, with any other test kit range on the market, and you will see that no test kit company compares. The ELOS Aqua Test Kit range is truly, ‘a lab quality kit designed for the hobbyist’.
