Product Description
Keen Alkalinity Test Kit is a titration-based water test kit used to determine phenolphthalein alkalinity (P) and total alkalinity (T). Model RMR-2006 reports the result in ppm as calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and can also be converted to degrees of carbonate hardness (dKH).
Alkalinity describes the ability of water to neutralize acids and resist sudden pH changes. Regular testing helps users monitor water-treatment processes, industrial systems, boiler and cooling water, aquaculture, pools and drinking-water sources.
The kit uses pre-prepared liquid reagents and a visual drop-counting procedure. It includes the reagents and equipment required for approximately 200 tests, subject to sample volume, water alkalinity and titrant consumption.

Product Overview
The RMR-2006 measures the acid-neutralising or buffering capacity of a water sample. This property is different from pH: pH shows how acidic or alkaline the water is at the moment, while alkalinity indicates how strongly the water can resist a change in pH.
The test first determines P alkalinity using Reagent 1 and Reagent 3. It then determines T alkalinity after adding Reagent 2 and continuing the titration with Reagent 3. The supplied instructions use distinct colour endpoints for each stage.

Calculation Summary
Alkalinity (ppm as CaCO3) = Number of Reagent 3 drops x 125 / Sample volume in ml.
For a 25 ml sample, multiply the drop count by 5. For a 5 ml sample, multiply the drop count by 25. To convert ppm as CaCO3 to dKH, divide the ppm result by 17.848.
Main Applications
- Textile processing and dyeing water
- Boiler feed water and boiler-system monitoring
- Cooling-water and industrial process-water testing
- Water-treatment plant process control
- Aquaculture, fisheries and hatchery water
- Swimming-pool water monitoring
- Drinking-water and groundwater screening
- Wastewater and environmental water checks
- Laboratory, educational and research use
- On-site routine water-quality monitoring
Key Benefits
Measures Both P and T Alkalinity
The same kit provides phenolphthalein alkalinity and total alkalinity results, allowing users to perform a broader alkalinity assessment than a single-endpoint test.
Two Testing Resolutions
The 25 ml procedure provides a finer 5 ppm-per-drop resolution, while the 5 ml procedure provides a faster 25 ppm-per-drop result for higher alkalinity levels or routine screening.
Simple Drop-Count Method
The result is calculated from the number of titrant drops and the selected sample volume. No electronic meter, battery or digital calibration is required.
Complete Testing Setup
The kit contains six pre-prepared reagent bottles, a sample vessel and the instruction manual required to perform the test.
Useful for Routine Process Monitoring
Regular alkalinity measurements can support pH stability, water-treatment decisions and monitoring of boiler, industrial, pool and aquaculture systems.
Who Should Buy This Product?
- Textile mills, dyeing units and garment-processing laboratories
- Boiler operators and industrial maintenance teams
- Water-treatment and wastewater-treatment facilities
- Fish farms, hatcheries and aquaculture operators
- Swimming-pool maintenance professionals
- Drinking-water testing laboratories
- Universities, colleges and research institutions
- Environmental and field-testing teams
- Government, NGO and institutional procurement departments
Usage and Handling Summary
Follow the current instruction manual supplied with the kit. The manufacturer procedure is summarised below:
- Rinse the supplied beaker three times with the sample water.
- Measure either 5 ml or 25 ml of the water sample into the beaker.
- Add four drops of Reagent 1 (RMR-2006-A) and mix well.
- Add Reagent 3 (RMR-2006-C) one drop at a time until the colour changes from pink to colourless.
- Count the Reagent 3 drops and use the supplied formula to calculate P alkalinity.
- Add four drops of Reagent 2 (RMR-2006-B) and mix well.
- Continue adding Reagent 3 drop by drop until the colour changes from green to reddish pink.
- Count the additional titrant drops as directed by the manual and calculate T alkalinity using the supplied formula.
- Record the result in ppm as CaCO3 or convert it to dKH when required.
- Rinse the beaker thoroughly with clean water after testing.
Handling Precautions
- Keep the kit out of the reach of children.
- Use the reagents only for water testing and follow the supplied instructions.
- Store the kit away from direct heat, light and flame; the manual shows a 10°C to 25°C storage range.
- Avoid contact with skin and eyes, and rinse with plenty of water following accidental contact.
- Close reagent bottles immediately after use and do not interchange the caps.
- Dispose of used samples and reagents according to laboratory and local requirements.
- The manufacturer recommends use by laboratory or technically competent personnel.
Limitations and Important Considerations
- The kit measures water alkalinity; it does not directly measure pH, hardness, acidity or individual dissolved ions.
- P and T alkalinity results do not by themselves provide a complete identification of bicarbonate, carbonate and hydroxide species without further interpretation.
- The colour endpoints are visual. Strongly coloured, cloudy or turbid samples may make the endpoint difficult to identify.
- Accuracy depends on correct sample volume, consistent drop size, thorough mixing and careful drop counting.
- The stated 200-test capacity is approximate because titrant consumption changes with sample volume and alkalinity level.
- For regulatory, legal or formal compliance testing, confirm results with an approved laboratory method when required.
- A verified shelf-life period was not found in the available official product information. Contact Inaya Scientific for confirmation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Keen RMR-2006 Alkalinity Test Kit measure?
It measures phenolphthalein alkalinity (P) and total alkalinity (T) in water. The results are reported in ppm as CaCO3 and can also be expressed as dKH.
What is the difference between P alkalinity and T alkalinity?
P alkalinity is measured at the first visual endpoint after adding Reagent 1 and titrating from pink to colourless. T alkalinity is determined at the later endpoint after Reagent 2 is added and the titration continues from green to reddish pink.
How do I use the Keen Alkalinity Test Kit?
Measure 5 ml or 25 ml of sample water, add four drops of Reagent 1 and titrate with Reagent 3 to the first endpoint. Then add four drops of Reagent 2, continue titrating with Reagent 3 to the second endpoint and calculate the results using the supplied formula.
What resolution does the RMR-2006 provide?
The kit provides a resolution of 5 ppm per drop when a 25 ml sample is used. With a 5 ml sample, the resolution is 25 ppm per drop.
How is the alkalinity result calculated?
Multiply the number of Reagent 3 drops by 125 and divide by the sample volume in millilitres. This gives the result in ppm as CaCO3; divide that value by 17.848 when a dKH result is required.
What types of water can be tested with this kit?
The kit is suitable for routine testing of textile, dyeing, boiler, industrial, fisheries, pool and drinking-water samples. Coloured or highly turbid samples may interfere with visual endpoint detection.
How many tests are included in one box?
One RMR-2006 kit is designed to perform approximately 200 tests. The actual number may vary because the amount of titrant used depends on sample size and the alkalinity of each water sample.
What is included in the Keen RMR-2006 kit?
The official manual lists one 30 ml bottle of Reagent 1, one 30 ml bottle of Reagent 2, four 45 ml bottles of Reagent 3, one 30 ml beaker and an instruction manual. Contact Inaya Scientific to confirm the contents of the current supplied batch.
How should the kit be stored, and what is its shelf life?
Store the kit tightly closed, away from heat, light and flame; the manual shows a 10°C to 25°C storage range. A verified shelf-life period was not found, so contact Inaya Scientific for confirmation of the expiry date.
What is the price, and can I order it anywhere in Bangladesh?
Contact Inaya Scientific for the current Bangladesh price because it may change with stock, batch and order quantity. Bulk and institutional quotations are available on request, with nationwide delivery across Bangladesh.
Closing Recommendation
The Keen Alkalinity Test Kit RMR-2006 is a practical option for routine P and T alkalinity testing where a portable titration method is preferred. Its two selectable resolutions, pre-prepared reagents and approximately 200-test capacity make it suitable for textile, boiler, industrial, aquaculture, pool, drinking-water and laboratory applications.
For consistent results, measure the sample carefully, hold each reagent bottle vertically, mix after every addition and observe the colour endpoints under clear lighting.
