The industry’s most advanced lab spectrophotometer.

The DR6000 is the industry’s most advanced lab spectrophotometer. It offers high speed wavelength scanning across the UV and Visible Spectrum, and comes with over 250 pre-programmed methods which include the most common testing methods used today. With optional accessories allowing for high volume testing via a carousel sample changer, and increased accuracy with a sample delivery system which eliminates optical difference errors, this instrument ensures you are ready to handle your wide-ranging water testing needs.

Combining the DR6000 with Hach’s unique TNTplus reagent vials, you gain additional accuracy with guided step-by-step testing procedures, while making scratched, flawed or dirty glassware a non-issue due to 10 reading averages and the discarding of outliers. The instrument also utilizes RFID technology, allowing it to automatically let you know if your TNTplus reagents have expired, while detecting coefficient factors to avoid errors which can occur in lot-to-lot variations in the chemistries.

Partnering all of these features with an integrated QA software package allows for scheduling, documenting and interpreting your needed quality measurements.

This instrument connects to Claros, Hach’s innovative Water Intelligence System, enabling you to seamlessly connect and manage instruments, data, and process – anywhere, anytime. The result is greater confidence in your data and improved efficiency in your operations. To unlock the full potential of Claros, insist on Claros Enabled instruments.

Contamination levels in water impact treatment and re-use decisions. With data on contamination plus nutrient levels water managers can make the most efficient and cost-effective decisions for treatment and reuse of important water supplies.

• Improve treatment and re-use decisions with accurate and complete water quality.
• Reduce costs on nutrient dosing while protecting critical treatment facilities with accurate C:N:P ratios.
• Spend more time managing the plant and less time collecting data with a robust, industrially designed online analyser to monitor TOC, TN, and TP parameters.
• Detect product loss quickly to save valuable product, and minimise risk of noncompliance by preventing excessive contamination releases to the wastewater treatment plant.

The Hach TOC analyser completes a full breakdown of each process sample to deliver trusted results.

Improve wastewater treatment process

Capture changes in water quality with a direct analysis of Total Organic Carbon (contamination), Total Nitrogen and Total Phosphorus in the most challenging samples.

Reduce the environmental footprint

Comprehensive information about your incoming sample composition enables improved process control. Knowing TOC + TN and TP allows you to decrease utilities usage and related costs. Optimised processes will reduce effluent environmental impact and minimise the risks of fines and reputation damage.

Protect your WWTP and WWRP

TOC is commonly used as a fast, reliable water analysis metric for water quality. TOC levels are often correlated to lagging water quality metrics such as Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD).

Superior reliability

With a certified 99.86% uptime critical process information is available when you need it most. Maintenance in most applications is done 2x per year.

Accurate process monitoring of dissolved oxygen in water for precise aeration control.

Hach's next generation DO Probe, the LDO Model 2 (Luminescent Dissolved Oxygen), accurately measures dissolved oxygen levels in water by utilizing luminescent dissolved oxygen technology within the O2 sensor (oxygen sensor) cap ensuring high levels of accuracy. The Hach LDO probe requires no calibration and can be used right out of the box. Using this DO probe to monitor dissolved oxygen levels in your water applications saves time and money through minimum maintenance (no electrolyte solution) and overall reduction in aeration blower energy usage.

An improved body design optimizes the probe’s temperature sensor to provide an even faster response time to process variability as well. The probe comes with a three year warranty, and the sensor cap has a two year warranty.

This instrument connects to Claros, Hach’s innovative Water Intelligence System, enabling you to seamlessly connect and manage instruments, data, and process – anywhere, anytime. The result is greater confidence in your data and improved efficiency in your operations. To unlock the full potential of Claros, insist on Claros Enabled instruments.

• No Calibration Required
• No Membranes to Replace
• No Missed Cleaning Cycles
• No Drift
• No Complications

The Next Standard in Chlorine Analysis

The CL17sc online chlorine analyzer extends Hach's decades-long legacy as the leader in online chlorine analysis. It uses EPA-approved colorimetric DPD analysis to deliver accurate and reliable measurements of free or total residual chlorine. Whether you use online chlorine measurements to optimize your process or report to regulatory agencies, the CL17sc is the analyzer you can trust.

Connection to Hach's SC controller platform gives you more flexibility to transfer, store, and interact with your chlorine measurement data, resulting in better understanding and control of your process, more cost-effective decision-making, and greater peace of mind that your data is always there no matter what happens.

A built-in flow meter, three-color status light, LED measurement cycle lights, and colorimeter window allow you to quickly and efficiently see that your CL17sc is functioning properly.

The CL17sc can also be used with Hach's Claros Water Intelligence System. With the innovative Claros Mobile Sensor Management, you can view measurements and instrument status anytime, anywhere, on any web-enabled device. Alerts for upcoming maintenance and issues requiring immediate attention are all in the palm of your hand. Detailed, step-by-step illustrated instructions for routine maintenance tasks also allow you to feel confident that you have performed routine maintenance correctly.

The next standard in the evolution of turbidity

The TU5200 laboratory turbidimeter is part of Hach’s TU5 series online and laboratory turbidimeters, designed specifically for the drinking water and other ultra pure water applications with an identical optic bloc in both the online and laboratory instruments.

The optical block of the turbidimeters was designed to let you see more of your sample than any other turbidimeter. The patented optical block features a 360° x 90° Detection Technology,with which the instrument measures turbidity not just from light reflected at a single point at 90° of the incident light, but rather from the full radius (360°) around the 90° from the incident light.

In this way, the TU5200 lab turbidimeter sees more of your sample than any other turbidimeter, delivering the best low level precision and sensitivity while minimizing variability from test to test. For the first time you will be able to remove the uncertainty of which measurement to trust, thanks to identical 360° x 90° Detection Technology in both the lab and online turbidity meters. With the TU5 turbidimeters, you can feel confident that you are in control of the turbidity in your drinking water plant.

Only the new TU5 Series Lab & Process Turbidimeters with 360° x 90° Detection deliver unprecedented confidence that a change in your reading is a change in your water.
