MP-9700E PAA Handheld Meter
The MP-9700E is a dual range digital photometer specifically designed to meaure peracetic acid (PAA) from 0-100 or 100-200 PPM soltions in water.
This meter uses the R-9703E Peracetic Acid Powder Pack Reagent Set 100/pkg
Measures:
- PAA Testing Meter
- Peracetic Acid Test
- Peroxyacetic Acid Testing
Description:
The MP-9700E electronic handheld meter quickly gives you a precise
reading, free from the hassles of variation between operators and testing errors inherent in other methods such as
strips and titrations. The most accurate of the testing methods offered, and suitable for all formulas of PAA without
a correction factor. High range is achieved by mixing one milliliter of sample plus nine milliliters of deionized water
in the test vials.
Peracetic acid (also known as peroxyacetic acid, or PAA) is an organic compound. It is a colorless liquid with a
characteristic pungent odor reminiscent of household vinegar. All commercially available PAA products contain
equilibrium of PAA, hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid, and water. Its formula is CH3C003H.
Peracetic acid is an ideal antimicrobial agent due to its high oxidizing potential. It is highly effective against a broad
range of microorganisms. In addition, PAA breaks down in food to safe and environmentally friendly residues
(acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide), and therefore can be used in non-rinse applications. PAA is one of the most
environmentally friendly antimicrobial agents, since resulting wastewater can be land applied for irrigation and is
generally eligible for NPDES permits to discharge to natural waterways.
The United States EPA first registered Peracetic acid as an antimicrobial in 1985 for indoor use on hard surfaces.
Today, registered applications have expanded to include: sanitation at food and beverage plants, agricultural
premises, wineries and breweries, greenhouse facilities and equipment, as well as animal housing. Peracetic acid
is also approved for use in dairy/cheese processing plants, and directly on fruits and vegetables as well as on meat,
poultry and seafood products. It is also used to prevent biofilm formation in pulp and paper industries and as a
disinfectant for municipal effluent. As the interest in “green chemistries” increases, PAA is finding us as a biocide in
industrial cooling systems.
