Nickel is commonly utilized by the electroplating industry in processes utilizing stainless steel, cobalt or nickel alloys. Even though nickel is regarded as non-toxic to human, concentrations found in wastewater exceeding 0.5 mg/L can cause damage to certain plants and aquatic life. Nickel is also used in batteries, fuel cells and hydrogenation of vegetable oils in the food industry. HANNA® offers two different meters to measure nickel:HI 96726 for high range (0.00 to 7.00 g/L) and HI 96740 for low range (0.000 to 1.000 mg/L), both with outstanding accuracy given by internal microprocessor calibration. Both the high and low range nickel meters have been designed to be comfortably handled. They weigh less than 300g (11 oz.) and their long battery life make them ideal for field measurements. Order Information: HI 96740 is supplied with 2 cuvets, battery and instructions.
