Precision Pool Chlorine Test Kits from LaMotte Pacific: Fast, Accurate, Business‑Ready

Maintaining proper chlorine levels in swimming pools is a critical concern for facility operators, hotels, resorts, and pool service businesses. LaMotte Pacific’s pool chlorine test kits in Australia —including the Chlorine‑Free/Total pH Test Kit, Chlorine‑Free/Total Test Kit, and Total Chlorine Test Kit—are designed for streamlined swimming pool water testing: fast, reliable, and ideal for commercial workflows.

Product Portfolio Overview

Chlorine‑Free/Total pH Test Kit (Order Code varies)

• Measures Free Chlorine, Total Chlorine, and pH.
• Utilizes DPD reagents and the Octa‑Slide™ 2 Comparator for colorimetric readings.
• Sensitivity:
  • Free/Total Chlorine: ranges from 0.2 to 3.0 ppm (0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0 ppm),
  • pH range: 6.8–8.2.
• Capacity: ~50 tests per kit. Ideal for mid‑frequency monitoring and compliance testing in pools with regulated sanitizer protocols.

Chlorine‑Free/Total Test Kit (similar configuration)

• Tests Free and Total Chlorine only (no pH).
• Same DPD tablet and Octa‑Slide comparator system.
• Range: 0.2–3.0 ppm for chlorine.
• Typically offered at a lower price point with fewer reagents.

Total Chlorine Test Kit (Order Code 2979)

• Measures only Total Chlorine (no free chlorine or pH).
• Test strip format: 50 strips per bottle.
• Range and sensitivity: 0, 0.5, 1.0, 3.0, 5.0 ppm. Offers rapid visual results via color comparison pads.

Technical Strengths & Operational Advantages

• DPD Tablet + Octa‑Slide comparator system enables high-precision readings: Free and Total Chlorine sensitivities from 0.2 ppm upward are essential for compliance-based environments.
• Colorimetric accuracy ensures consistent field measurements regardless of sample turbidity or lighting conditions.
• Portable and robust: quad-reagent design and compact kit format support on-site professionalism and repeated use.
• Clear comparator plates reduce interpretation variance—ideal for technician teams with rotating shifts.

Data‑Driven Insights for Business Use

Efficiency & Throughput

• With 50 tests per kit, these kits support weekly or bi‑weekly rounds, depending on pool size and regulation schedules.
• Field staff can complete sample-read-adjust protocols in under two minutes—reducing testing cycle time by over 60% compared with full titration or photometric systems.

Cost & Inventory Management

• DPD tablet refills and Octa‑Slide comparators require minimal storage and no instrument calibration.
• The modular kit format (Free/Total/optional pH) allows service providers to optimize spend based on testing requirements.

Regulatory Compliance & Documentation

• Free and Total Chlorine measured at regulated thresholds (0.2–3.0 ppm) meet municipal guidelines for public pool safety.
• Octa‑Slide results can be logged with timestamped notes, creating audit-ready documentation for health inspections.

Use‑Case Differentiation: Select the Right Kit

• Total Chlorine Test Kit (2979) is ideal when you only need residual chlorine checks—quick, strip-based, low-cost.
• Chlorine‑Free/Total Test Kit (tablet + comparator) provides dual-chlorine measurement—valuable where combined chlorine (chloramines) levels must be tracked to manage bather load or source water effects.
• Chlorine‑Free/Total pH Test Kit delivers the most actionable data—especially important in commercial pools where balancing pH ensures sanitizer performance and guest comfort.

Product Summary

• Chlorine‑Free/Total pH Test Kit – combines Free Chlorine, Total Chlorine, and pH measurement using DPD tablets and Octa‑Slide comparator; range up to 3.0 ppm chlorine, pH 6.8–8.2; ~50 tests per kit.
• Chlorine‑Free/Total Test Kit – DPD dual-chlorine strip format; similar sensitivity range; optimized for cost and chlorine-only measurements.
• Total Chlorine Test Kit – visual color-strip kit measuring only Total Chlorine at 0.5–5 ppm; 50 strips per bottle; fastest baseline screening.

LaMotte Pacific’s pool chlorine test kits—spanning strip-based to DPD/tablet systems—address the critical need for accurate, fast, and audit-compliant chlorine monitoring. Each kit suits a different operational profile, from rapid sanitizer checks to full chlorine & pH balancing. By integrating these into your commercial pool operations, service providers and facility managers can reduce labor, tighten regulatory alignment, and elevate service reliability.
