MD50 Colorimeter – Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD)
The MD50 COD is a next-generation, single-parameter colorimeter designed for fast, accurate COD analysis across a wide range of concentrations. As the successor to the MD100 COD, it introduces enhanced optics, improved usability, and expanded testing capabilities—including the innovative Very Low Range (VLR) method for ultra-sensitive measurements. Whether in the field or lab, the MD50 delivers reliable results with minimal effort.
