Solids analysis

The level of suspended solids in a water sample is determined by pouring a carefully measured volume of water through
a preweighed filter with a specified pore size, drying the filter to remove the water, and then weighing the filter again. The weight gain of the filter is a dry weight measure of the particulates present in the water sample expressed in units derived or calculated from the volume of water filtered (typically milligrams per liter). Suspended solids measurements are typically performed using glass fiber filter circles that need additional preparation prior to use. However, GE has developed ready-to-use 934-AH RTU glass fiber filters, which are supplied in a prewashed and preweighed format and enable considerable time savings in the laboratory. 934-AH RTU filters also provide reproducible results and low background contamination.
