Soil Nitrate Test Kit

This kit utilizes the EM Quant Nitrate Test strip and the Nitrachek meter, to read extractable nitrate. The strip nitrate chemistry follows the ASTM D3867 testing procedure. A reaction pad on the strip develops a red-violet color, which is analyzed by the Nitrachek meter over the range of 5 to 500 ppm (mg/L) nitrate. The meter reads to 1 ppm nitrate. Approximate time to perform the test, after collecting and drying the soil samples is 15 minutes.

Nitrachek is a excellent portable pocket size instrument for the determination of nitrates in soil, plants & water. Nitrachek features a memory that can store up to 20 readings. Each stored reading is automatically tagged with day/date information.

Comes with a packet of 100 test packets of 10 to 500 ppm.

You have two choices, you can order just the meter and strips or you can order the complete kit for an additional $200.
