14 – Optional accessory: hydrogen measuring drops
Testing the amount of molecular hydrogen is carried out immediately after production with the optional H
2
Blue® Kit. A water sample of 6 ml is filled carefully into the measuring cup and one drop of the blue
measuring liquid is added. Each drop that discolours means 0,1 ppm (=100 ppb) dissolved hydrogen gas.
If a drop does not discolour automatically one can stir gently. If the liquid still does not discolour, then the
last drop does not count. Water under normal air pressure can contain up to 1,6 ppm hydrogen gas (full
saturation). With the
AquaVolta
®
Hydrogen Booster
you can also produce an over saturated water with more
than 6 ppm. Yet this falls back to full saturation after a few minutes when this water comes into contact with
the normal atmosphere. Whoever wants a lot of hydrogen, has to drink quickly.
Do not drink the test liquid and keep it out of reach of children! Use protective gloves, a surface that can be
wiped clean and watch out for clothing or dishcloths. The drops contain methylene blue, a very intense dye.
