Powder Pop Dispenser
The powder pop dispenser, NSN 6640-01-491-
6490, that is part of the WQAS-P chlorine photo-
meter, NSN 6850-01-487-8812, now comes as two
separate dispensers.
Each dispenser allows for 200 chlorine tests. The old dispenser that came under
this same NSN came in one dispenser, allowing 400 tests.

600-GPH ROWPU…
Deionization Cartridge
Word from the ROWPU headshed is the deionization car-
tridges, NSN 4610-01-116-0501, used in the removal of
nuclear contaminants now have an extended shelf-life.
These cartridges, also known as ion-exchange columns,
have a paper decal near the top of the cartridge.
Look for the expiration date on the bottom right-hand
corner of the decal. Whatever date is shown, you can extend
it by 14 years. This time period might vary a year or two
depending on storage conditions and wear and tear on the
cartridge itself.
So play it safe. Test the effluent total dissolved solids
(TDS) of the cartridge during operations. The water coming
out of the ion exchange column should have close to a zero
TDS. That way you can tell if the cartridge is still capable
of removing nuclear contaminants.
So jot them
down
before
you
operate the
reverse osmosis
water purification
unit.
look at the
label for the
expiration in
bottom right
hand corner.
When you
order and
receive
the new
dispensers,
store one
dispenser in
its original
foam slot…
bye-
bye!
