The display shows the unit of measure as Br (Bromine). Is Chlorine and Bromine 1:1 ratio?

No, You have to convert it. This trutest comes with directions how to convert it to Bromine. It's to bad it doesn't have it already figured out for you on the unit.

Sorry, I bought this as a gift and hand delivered it to my Instructor in Okinawa Japan. I do not have it available for measuring.

for simple conversions like that, your best bet is to type "convert ___ to ____" into google....just switch out the first blank for the unknown measure (in your situation, first put in "1 cup" then "1 tablespoon" then 1 teaspoon") and put the desired unit of measure in the second blank (in your case, "ml"). This will give you instant results.

Yes its just the standard tests chlorine/pH and alkalinity.You only need to test the salt when you fill the spa with water for the first time, however after now using the Solaxx mini for almost a year now i don't test the water att all anymore because its chrystal clear and doesn't smell like chlorine at all.

Lisa here are the numbers on the comparison chart of the container, it reads. 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 5.75, 6.0, 6.25, 6.5, 6.75, 7.0, 7.25, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, 9.0. Hope that helps.

According to Aqua Chek's website, A: Free chlorine refers to both hypochlorous acid (HOCl) and the hypochlorite (OCl-) ion or bleach, and is commonly added to water systems for disinfection. When ammonia or organic nitrogen is also present, chloramines known as monochloramine, dichloramine, and trichloramine will quickly form. Chloramines are also known as combined chlorine. Total chlorine is the sum of free chlorine and combined chlorine. The level of total chlorine will always be higher than or equal to the level of free chlorine. Free chlorine is typically measured in drinking water disinfection systems using chlorine gas or sodium hypochlorite to find whether the water system contains enough disinfectant. Typical levels of free chlorine in drinking water are 0.2 - 2.0 mg/L Cl2, though levels can be as high as 5.0 mg/L. Total chlorine is typically measured to determine the total chlorine content of treated waste water, often for discharge purposes. If you are required to measure and report chlorine levels to a regulatory agency, we advise that you check with your regulator to find whether you are required to measure free chlorine or total chlorine.

No. The kit will test for free chlorine, total chlorine, ph, alkalinity, bromine, and calcium hardness.

The one I purchased had both BRIX and SG however, I believe the SG is an approximation based on a conversion from the BRIX scale. Still, it's good enough for the beer I make :-)

The unit is ml/sec . The total quantity is a function of number of outlets and height of the tube openings. See my other posts regarding regarding how to determine how long to run and frequency. Hope this helps. Get the brochure if you do not have it at the address on the box.

I have found it to be quite sensitive to minute changes but I don't use calibration weights. The smallest units are 0.05 (1/20th) ounce and 1 gram (30 grams ≈ 1oz). Considering that 1/8th tsp is roughly 1.125 grams, you have to decide if that's sensitive enough for your needs.

Sodium hypochlorite. Bleach by any other name. 5.25%. The thing is that that it is measured to make sure it doesn't get too concentrated.

You would be able to get a measurement but I am not sure if the conversion from Brix to SG would be accurate since this refractometer is calibrated for wort.

Yes. Its shown on the left side of the first page of Google results searching the units numbers are.

My best guess is NO. If it's not the same number it's probably not the same strength reagent. If you have the brochure that came with the kit, it explains that there are different concentrations of reagents and different strengths will give inaccurate results.

This measures BRIX. It's a simple conversion to get your gravity. Google "how to use a refractometer"

No, it should be calibrated. Make sure you have it set to read salinity. The pool water should read around 0.3 percent, or 3 ppt or 3000 ppm. My chlorinator also reads the amount of salt and it agrees well with this instrument.

there's a 100-1 / 50-1 / 40-1 /& 24-1............why they put 24 to 1 instead of 25 to 1, I don't know. This is a good measuring bottle for the price.
