TNT Plus® Vial Chemistries

Source: Hach

A unique barcode label on each Hach TNTplus Vial Chemistry is automatically read by the spectrophotometer when used with Hach's DR spectrophotometers to identify the appropriate method and take the measurement. While increasing ease-of-use and speed of analysis, potential errors are significantly reduced.

Reduce Errors with Bar-coded Vials
A unique barcode label on each Hach TNTplus Vial Chemistry is automatically read by the spectrophotometer when used with Hach's DR spectrophotometers to identify the appropriate method and take the measurement. While increasing ease-of-use and speed of analysis, potential errors are significantly reduced.

No Reagent Blank Necessary
The high quality of TNTplus vials, tight reagent production controls, 10-fold absorbance readings averaged for results determination, instrument calibration verification, and high instrument stability all combine to eliminate the need to run reagent blanks—saving you time and money!

New features have been added to the vial barcode, allowing the spectrophotometer to detect the reagent lot number and expiration date—notifying the user if reagents are expired. Using a DR3900 or DR6000 equipped with the RFID feature, an RFID* tag on the package triggers any required method calibration updates simply by placing the box adjacent to the instrument.

Innovative Vial and Reagent Delivery
TNTplus vials use innovative DosiCaps that are easier to use than powder pillows or liquid reagents. There’s no risk of spillage, no safety risk, or risk of contamination with DosiCaps because the reagents are completely contained within the vial cap. The glassware used assures the best precision and the vials have a flat bottom so they can stand on their own.

Even the Package is Useful
Packages of TNTplus vials are color-coded for fast and easy parameter and range recognition for the exact test you need. Step-by-step illustrated test methods are printed on the box for quick reference. Simple instructions in multiple languages are included in each carton, facilitating use by a diverse labor force.

Methods for EPA Compliance Monitoring Hach TNTplus Vial Chemistries for COD (Hach Method 8000), Free and Total Chlorine (SM 4500-Cl G), Chromium VI (SM 3500-Cr B, D), Iron (Hach Method 8008), Ortho- (EPA 365.1) and Total Phosphate (EPA 365.1, 365.3), Ammonia (EPA 350.1), and Nitrite (EPA 353.2) are equivalent to the respective method referenced in parentheses under 40 CFR 136.6 for compliance monitoring. Nitrate TNT835 and TNT836 are approved for drinking water monitoring under 40 CFR 141. As with any method used for compliance reporting, consult with your local regulatory authority.
