A total water hardness test kit uses drop-count titration to measure hardness as calcium carbonate in field or laboratory samples. Hach Model 5-B offers a straightforward single-parameter method for water treatment, food and beverage, textile, manufacturing and facility work, helping users quantify mineral content rather than estimate it from soap performance or visible scale.
The kit measures from 1 to 30 grains per gallon in one-GPG increments, with one grain per gallon equal to 17.1mg/L as CaCO3. Supplies support approximately 100 tests and include two reagents, a measuring tube, square bottle, scoop and multilingual instructions. Collect a representative sample, follow the specified reagent sequence and count drops until the endpoint color appears. Record the result using the kit conversion, prevent reagent cross-contamination and observe all handling and disposal directions supplied with the chemicals.
