Taylor 2000 Series Calcium Buffer Reagent #10, 2 oz Dropper Bottle | R‑0010‑C

The Taylor R‑0010‑C Calcium Buffer is a 2‑ounce phenol-based hard water buffer reagent used with Taylor 2000 Series test kits (e.g. K‑2006, K‑2006‑C) to measure calcium hardness accurately.

Key Features:

• Designed specifically for Taylor 2000 Series calcium hardness testing
• Provides precise buffer solution to stabilize sample for titration
• 2 oz dropper bottle yields several hundred tests (~260–320 at 5 drops/test)
• Protective brown dropper bottle preserves reagent stability

Directions for Use:

1. Follow Taylor 2000 Series kit instructions: add the specified volume/sample and then buffer drops.
2. Mix gently to avoid bubbles before titrating.
3. Ensure the bottle cap is tightly sealed after each use—store upright.
4. Discard and replace reagent if cloudy or older than 12 months.

Benefits:

• Ensures consistent accuracy in calcium hardness tests
• Economical for frequent testing—large number of tests per bottle
• Simple dropper design minimizes chemical handling and waste
• Genuine Taylor reagent for professional-grade reliability

Pro Tip: Always check expiration or condition before a full test—faded color or contaminants can impact accuracy. Replace annually or at the start of each swimming season.
