| Hanna Part No: HI-93719 Water, with exception of distilled water, contains dissolved salts (magnesium and calcium carbonates). The concentration of these salts determines the water hardness, which can be expressed in calcium carbonate or in magnesium carbonate. The sum of these two represents the total hardness level. The presence of dissolved salts is due to the fact that water often comes from underground sources which are in turn made up of rain water filtered through deep ground layers. By passing through the various layers of soil and rock, rain water dissolves some of the mineral substances. Hardness is a consequence of the type of rock layers which the water passes through and of its permanence in the water bearing stratum. The HI-93719 is supplied complete with 2 cuvets, battery and instructions.
