Features
Incredible Time Savings
With the WaterLink Express, a complete analysis – Free Chlorine through Borate – can now be done in under 4 minutes!
Reliable Results
The proven colorimetric chemistries needed in water lab analysis are all inside the UDVs. Theres no need to measure either reagents or water samples, and no need for burets or stirring devices that require precise technique.
Precalibrated Pipettor
The simple-to-use pipettor is precalibrated to deliver 3mL of water sample with each press of the plunger. Simply press/release to fill the pipettor, and press/release to dispense 3mL of the sample into a UDV.
The WaterLink Express® Colorimeter
Specifically designed to read the UDV system color reactions, the WaterLink Express digitally displays results directly in ppm, and the user-friendly push-button system permits easy forward/reverse scrolling through the test series. The optional upgrade package (noted below) feeds test results directly to your computer. [Note: The WaterLink 2 and DPC-2 microprocessor colorimeters can be adapted to analyze UDVs. Call for details.]
Software
Optional DataMate 10 Software
Code 1768 (Compact Disk)

The customer information section allows the retailer to list the brand of chlorine (salt) generators, alternative sanitizers, auto cleaners, water features, filters, pool surface, spa model, heater, motor and many other fields. An equipment log for each customer stores information pertaining to manufacturer, brand, serial number, installation date and warranty expiration.

The test entry section of the software includes fields to measure Free Chlorine, Total Chlorine, Bromine, Biguanide, Biguanide Shock, pH, Alkalinity, Calcium Hardness, Cyanuric Acid, Copper, Iron, Nitrate, Borate, Phosphate, Manganese, Salt and TDS. Use check boxes for certain water conditions such as water color, stains, cloudy. foamy, or products needed to remedy problems like enzymes, cover cleaner, filter cleaner, surface cleaner, pool opening procedures, pool closing procedures, weekly maintenance and salt maintenance procedures.
