Product Code : EL-ELA-5426
Jlab Export is a leading Chloroscope Manufacturer,and suppliers in India

Chloroscope (code EL-ELA-5426) is a chlorine test kit for checking the residual chlorine in drinking water from 0.25 ppm to 2.0 ppm, used in public health departments, water testing labs, swimming pools and industrial labs. A treated water sample is matched by eye against colour standards and read off a ppm scale on the front of the comparator. It is made by Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd (JLab) at its works in Ambala, India.

What Is the Chloroscope Used For?

Public water supplies and swimming pools are chlorinated to disinfect them, and the small amount of chlorine still present afterwards — the residual chlorine — shows whether that protection has reached the tap or the pool. This chlorine test kit lets public health inspectors, water testing labs, pool operators and industrial labs check that residual at the sampling point by simple colour matching, with no meter to calibrate. In teaching it suits environmental science and public health engineering practicals in colleges and polytechnics, and school water testing projects that compare tap, tank and pool water.

To run a test, fill a test tube with the water sample up to the 5 ml mark, add 1 to 2 drops of o-tolidine solution with the dropper, shake well and leave the tube for ten minutes while the colour develops. Then insert the tube in the 1st, 2nd or 3rd hole of the chloroscope, compare it with the colour standard and note the reading from the ppm scale on the front. Match colours in good, even light. When testing is complete, pour out the sample and clean the tube with fresh water and a cleaning brush. O-tolidine is a hazardous chemical, so wear gloves, avoid skin contact and keep the reagent out of reach of children.

What to Specify When Ordering

  • Number of kits — the minimum order is 10 standard sets; inspection teams and colleges often plan one set per field team or bench group.
  • Extra reagent — each set has a 125 ml bottle of o-tolidine reagent; state any additional quantity you need and ask for the batch expiry date.
  • Spare tubes and droppers — the set holds two square unbreakable test tubes and one glass dropper with rubber teat; list any spares in the same enquiry.
  • Delivery details — destination, delivery terms and any labelling your department or tender requires.

Frequently Asked Questions

What range of chlorine can the chloroscope read?
It reads residual chlorine in drinking water from 0.25 ppm to 2.0 ppm. The value is taken from the ppm scale marked on the front of the chloroscope after the treated sample has been matched against its colour standard.

How long does one test take?
About ten minutes. After 1 to 2 drops of o-tolidine solution are added to the 5 ml sample and the tube is shaken, the colour is left to develop for ten minutes before the reading is taken.

What comes in the standard set?
One chloroscope, two square unbreakable test tubes, one glass dropper with rubber teat and 125 ml of o-tolidine reagent. A cleaning brush for the tubes is not part of the set and can be added to the order.

Can it be used to check swimming pool water?
Yes. Swimming pools are one of the listed uses, along with public health departments, water testing labs and industrial labs. Readings are limited to the 0.25–2.0 ppm scale of the comparator.

How long does the o-tolidine reagent keep?
Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted. Keep the bottle tightly closed between tests.

What should an export enquiry include?
Send the number of kits, any extra reagent, the destination country and port or city, your preferred delivery terms (for example FOB or CIF), packing or labelling requirements, and the tender reference if the purchase is for a tender.

Who manufactures the chloroscope?
Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, trading as JLab, makes it at its works in Ambala, Haryana, India, and quotes for it directly as the manufacturer.

OEM Manufacturer

JLab is the trading name of Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, a manufacturer of educational and testing laboratory apparatus in India, incorporated in 2017 and based on Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana. The chloroscope kit is put together at JLab’s own works rather than bought in from a trader, so health departments, water labs, colleges, dealers and importers deal with the maker directly; each set is visually inspected before dispatch, and repeat orders and reagent enquiries go to the same team. JLab exports worldwide and ships to buyers in every region — Thailand in Southeast Asia, Kenya in East Africa, Eswatini in Southern Africa, Canada in North America and Portugal in Southern Europe are examples. Departments buying through tenders can find details on the JLab lab tenders page.
