Introduction
A COD reactor is a laboratory instrument used for the digestion of the water and the wastewater samples for the determination of the chemical oxygen demand (COD), and it is used in the environmental, the water, and the wastewater laboratories for the analysis of the organic pollution load. The COD reactor provides the controlled heating for the digestion of the samples, in which the sample is heated with a strong oxidizing agent, typically the potassium dichromate, in an acidic medium, at a high temperature, typically 150 degrees Celsius, for a specified time, and the amount of the oxidant consumed is measured, and the COD is calculated; the COD reactor consists of a heating block with the wells that hold the digestion tubes, a temperature control system, a timer, and a display, and it provides a controlled and uniform heating, with features such as the programmable temperature and time, and it is used with the digestion tubes that are sealed, and it may be used with the photometric or the titrimetric measurement of the COD, and it is available in various configurations, from the simple models to the models with the multiple wells, and it is an essential instrument for the COD analysis; the COD reactor is used for the digestion of the samples for the COD determination, for the digestion of the samples for the other analyses that require the high-temperature digestion, and it is used for the monitoring of the wastewater, for the assessment of the pollution, for the compliance with the regulations, and for many other applications. COD reactors are used in the environmental laboratories, in the wastewater treatment plants, in the water testing laboratories, and for many other applications. With their controlled digestion, COD reactors are essential for the COD analysis.

FAQ
Q1: What scenarios is this reactor used for?
A: It heats COD vials at a controlled temperature for the required digestion time in environmental and wastewater laboratories before colorimetric or titrimetric measurement.
Q2: What standards does it comply with?
A: It follows ISO 15705, EPA 410.4 and Standard Methods 5220, related GB/T standards, with temperature and timing verified.
Q3: What is the warranty?
A: The reactor carries a 12 to 24 month warranty covering the heater and controls. Vials are consumables. Damage from over-temperature or spills is excluded.
Q4: Is it hard to operate?
A: Operation is simple: load vials, set temperature and time and start. We provide a manual and guidance.
Q5: What is the lead time?
A: Standard models require 7-30 working days. In-stock units can ship within 3-7 working days. Custom configurations or large built-to-order systems may require additional time, and we confirm the exact schedule before order confirmation.
Q6: Is calibration required?
A: Performance should be verified periodically using calibrated reference standards, with results logged in the equipment record. Most users perform this check every 6 to 12 months or according to their internal quality schedule. We provide the procedure, reference materials and formal calibration service if required.
Q7: Are consumables universal?
A: Vials and reagents are standard COD supplies, while blocks are model-specific. Ongoing cost is vials and reagents.
Q8: Can it be customized?
A: Yes, several configurations are available. Options include vial capacity, temperature programs, timers and field cases. We can discuss further custom requirements, confirm feasibility and advise any effect on the schedule before the order is confirmed.
Q9: Is installation included?
A: The instrument does not need professional installation. After unpacking, connect it to the specified power supply, allow it to stabilize and confirm the self-check passes. The package includes a printed manual, and our support team offers remote assistance throughout setup.
Q10: What samples are compatible?
A: It handles prepared COD vials for water and wastewater. It is not for open-vessel digestion, incompatible chemicals, or samples outside the method.
