Taylor Complete FAS-DPD Kit

[waterbear]

The K-2005 is the DPD test. The K-2006 is the FAS-DPD test.

You can do a cheaper upgrade by just buying the FAS-DPD test kit--that's all it does. I think it's now gone up to $25.

Leslie's used to sell it too, for about $20 but seems to have stopped.

But that single test will give you the equivalent of the K2006 a lot cheaper, since you have the K2005.

I'd like to "upgrade" my K2005 with just the FAS-DPD test kit but can't seem to find a supplier online. Does anyone know what the model number is, or a supplier that carries the kit? I still have a pretty good supply of the rest of the reagents for my K2005 so don't really want to buy another "complete" kit just to get the FAS-DPD kit.

Go to Taylortechnologies.com and here's the link:

http://www.taylortechnologies.com/pr...D=1&KitID=2185

It's kit # K-1515-A and it's less than $24.

Or you can go to Leslies On-line and buy the three reagents you'll need:
1. FAS-DPD powder (called DPD powder but it's the right stuff)
2. FAS-DPD Titrating Agent
and
3. DPD Reagent #3 (this is the CC test)
4. You'll also need a test container with a 10 ml line on it. You should already have something that will do the job in your kit.
Then you'll have the FAS-DPD test--for about $20.


OK: That's 2 alternatives I've given. Should be enough

Ok, so the K-1515-A will test FC and CC?

Is there a titrating test for pH or are all the pH tests color matching?

...And my current DPD kit will give me all the other tests I need right? i.e. CYA, TA, CH...

I've never seen or heard of a titrating pH test.

This test, the 1515-A is the FAS-DPD FC / CC test included in other kits.

The other tests should be fine.

Once my PS234 reagents run out I think I'll buy a Lamotte ColorQ (if the reviews are good).

It's Expensive (~$145 delivered) but it has enough material for 140 FC, TC, PH, ALK, CH tests and 50 CYA tests which should be good for 3 seasons.
