The Hach EZ5005 is a high-performance multi-parameter online analyzer designed for the simultaneous determination of Total Hardness, Total Alkalinity, and Free Alkalinity in water. By combining multiple titration methods into a single automated platform, it provides a comprehensive chemical profile essential for process control in wastewater, drinking water, and industrial steam applications.
The EZ5005 (No. EZ5005) is a sophisticated volumetric titrator that automates complex laboratory procedures for continuous online monitoring. It employs acid-base titration to determine alkalinity levels and Calgamite EDTA titration with an integrated LED dipping probe to measure total hardness. This dual-method approach allows the system to deliver precise results for three distinct parameters in a single cycle. The analyzer features a smart controller that manages automatic validation, priming, and cleaning cycles, ensuring maximum uptime with minimal manual intervention. Its modular design allows for customization, including multi-stream analysis for up to 8 separate sample lines. The wet-chemical and electronic sections are strictly separated for safety, housed in an ergonomic cabinet with a transparent door for easy visual inspection of the titration process.
Advantages
- Multi-Parameter Efficiency: Monitors Total Hardness, Total Alkalinity, and Free Alkalinity in one unit, reducing the need for multiple specialized analyzers.
- High Precision Titration: Utilizes a high-precision dispenser and robust peristaltic pumps to ensure accuracy better than 2% of the full-scale range.
- Automated Maintenance: Integrated self-cleaning and validation features minimize operator intervention and prevent cross-contamination between samples.
- Modular Flexibility: Can be configured for multiple sample streams (1, 2, 4, or 8), significantly lowering the cost per sampling point.
- Industrial Reliability: Features an integrated industrial panel PC and a robust IP44-rated cabinet designed for demanding environmental and industrial sites.
- Extended Range Options: The standard measuring range can be customized or extended via internal dispenser dilution to match specific application needs.
