I haven't seen this discussed in the forums and was talking with someone on Reddit about this. Why does Taylor seem to be saying that 20ppm is the max you can test with their FAS-DPD tests here:
https://www.taylortechnologies.com/en/Image/GetDocument/607
But then here on the Potential Interferences tab they say this:
Chlorine levels > approx. 25 ppm may bleach out indicator or cause sample to develop a brown color; to prevent, add more DPD powder or dilute sample with DI water as necessary and retest. Other halogens and oxidized manganese may cause positive interference.
Complete™ kit for Chlorine, pH, Alkalinity, Hardness, CYA, Salt (FAS-DPD–high range) (.75 oz bottles)
And TFTestkits indicates 50ppm here:
FAS/DPD Chlorine Test Kit
These are all the same reagents 870/871. What's up with the seemingly conflicting information?
Thanks!
