Product overview
The SL1000 portable parallel analyzer measures a maximum of six parameters at
the same time in drinking water and other clean water applications. The meter
uses Chemkeys® and digital IntelliCAL™ probes to measure different parameters
in water. The meter automatically identifies the type of Chemkey that is
installed or the type of probe that is connected to the meter. The meter can
use a maximum of four Chemkeys and a maximum of two probes for measurements.
