The Hydrion IL-250 is a low-range iodine test kit used to measure the concentration of titratable iodine (0-50 ppm) in sanitizing solutions, essential for food service and healthcare to meet health regulations. It uses test paper strips that change color when dipped in the sanitizer, allowing for easy comparison against an included color chart to ensure proper sanitizing strength, preventing health code violations. The kit is convenient, portable, and provides around 200 tests, making it a simple tool for verifying iodine-based sanitizers.

Key Features & Use:
Measures Iodine: Specifically for low-range iodine concentrations (0-50 ppm) in iodophor sanitizers.
Easy to Use: Dip a strip, shake, and compare to the color chart; no technical skills needed.
Includes: Test paper, color chart, sample tubes, and a carrying case.
Regulatory Compliance: Helps meet federal, state, and local requirements for sanitizer strength.
Application: Verifies sanitizer strength in restaurants, hospitals, and other settings where iodine sanitizers are used.

How to Use (General Steps):
Prepare Solution: Fill a basin with the sanitizing solution as directed.
Dip Strip: Take a strip of Hydrion test paper and dip it into the solution for about 10 seconds, then remove it.
Compare: Immediately compare the color of the strip to the color chart provided in the kit.
Verify: Ensure the color matches the appropriate ppm (parts per million) level, typically between 12.5-25 ppm for proper sanitizing, as per manufacturer guidelines and health codes.
