ACCURACY OF THE EXACT IDIP
Combined with your smart device, the eXact iDip® is designed to test
your water for multiple water quality paramete rs. Download the
free eXact iDip® app and sync to your smart device running
Bluetooth® Smart Technology.
All tests have been calibrated using ce rtified reference standards and
analytical spectrophotometric methods. The algorithms in the app
reflect the best correlation of the eXact iDip® against the AWWA,
USEPA, DIN and ISO reference test methods for chlorine.
Independent studies verify the eXact iDip® repeatedly agrees with a
USEPA compliant reference method greater than 99% (R2= 0.99948,
0-5.00 ppm). The eXact iDip® has been factory calibrated and will
stay valid because of the exceptional quality. We are so confident in
the eXact iDip®, we offer an industry leading 2-year warranty.
We built the eXact iDip® to be easy, accurate and enviro nmentally
friendly. We have achieved this by utilizing our patented eXact Strip
Micro Technology, which uses at lea st 60% less water and chemistry
than alternative methods. Instead of using a 10mL water sample, eXact
Strip Micro uses a 4mL water sample. The accuracy of the meter is
maintained by designing the sample cell with a 11mm path length.
®
BLUETOOTH TECHNOLOGY
Bluetooth® is a low-power wireless networking standard which uses
short radio waves to allow electronic devices to communicate with
each other wirelessly. The eXact iDip® comes standard with the latest
Bluetooth® 4.0 technology (www.bluetooth.com/Pages/BluetoothSmart. aspx), a class 2 device with a wireless working distance of up to
30 feet (10 meters) and a 2.1 Mbps data transfer rate. This allows a
seamless transfer of data between a smart device and the eXact iDip®.
ABOUT THE BUILT IN SAMPLE CELL
The built-in sample cell is made of transparent plastic; the sturdy cell
design will last for over 20,000 readings. Scratches on the cell will not
compromise the accuracy of your results because of the cell’s fixed
position.
CLEANING THE CELL
Fill the cell with water and use the enclosed cleaning bru sh to scrub
the CELL thoroughly. Rinse the CEL L. You can use dish soap or
distilled white vinegar for cleaning the CELL if needed. NEVER use
solvents such as acetone.
