Timesaving Testing Tools from Taylor
SampleSizer
M
any Taylor drop tests are done with either a 10 mL or
25 mL water sample. Using this new tool, you won’t
need to flick off the excess water to get the meniscus
to rest precisely on the fill line. Simply lower the SampleSizer®
(#6190) into a #9198 test vial filled with the water to be
tested. It will displace exactly the right amount to leave the
correct volume to perform the test: either 10 mL or 25 mL,
depending on which end of the tool goes in first. The
SampleSizer is removed once the extra water is splashed out.
Clean and dry it before storing or using it for another test.
The SampleSizer is made from machined aluminum anodized
for longer life.
SpeedStir
T
he SpeedStir® (#9265) makes quick work of drop tests
performed in Taylor’s #9198 sample tube. This palmsize,
portable magnetic stirrer will thoroughly incorporate
each addition of reagent in a fraction of a second. No more
manual swirling! Place the water sample on the mixing
platform then gently drop in the Teflon®-coated stir bar. Use
the pad to turn the unit on in well-lit conditions. Use the
pad to start the stirrer when ambient light is poor—six
LEDs below the mixing platform will light up to make color
changes in the test sample easy to see. Press the same pad
to stop the stirring action, or the unit will turn itself off after
five minutes. The SpeedStir runs on four AA alkaline batteries
at 600 rpm. Made of high-impact polystyrene, it is water-
resistant (you can spill water on it, but you should not
submerge it).
