Overview
The Hach DR1900 portable spectrophotometer excels in the field because of the lightweight and compact design. The DR1900 is built for rugged conditions, and it’s flexible, --accepting the widest range of vial sizes.
Built with field use in mind, the DR1900 has a large, clear screen and a simple user interface that makes testing easier than ever in even the most demanding conditions.
Advanced Testing
Easy to hold, and operate, the compact DR1900 is a valuable tool for your field technicians. Underneath the rugged exterior, the DR1900 has the largest number,-- over 220-- of the most commonly tested preprogrammed methods already built in. You can also use the easy-to-use interface to create your own methods.
Tests are performed with a wavelength range of 340 to 800 nm which make this a field instrument you can use to find results typically only seen in laboratory instruments.
Notes
Reagents listed below are EPA approved. For the full list of reagents and methods that can be used with the DR1900, refer to the Hach Methods Quick Reference Guide

Monitoring Meadowbrook Creek: Real-Time Data Collection in an Urban Creek
Meadowbrook Creek in Syracuse, New York, has been monitored by Syracuse University (SU) faculty and students for over a decade. Originally established by Dr. Laura Lautz in 2012, the early years of the program focused on collecting grab water samples for laboratory analysis and evaluating the impact of urban land use, human activities, and natural processes on water resources. Tao Wen , an Assistant Professor in SU’s Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, took over the program in 2020 and upgraded the existing systems to include 4G modems that allowed for real-time data viewing.

Lancaster County Makes the Switch to Real-Time Water Quality Monitoring Systems
Continuous data collection in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, started about 5 years ago, and the county will be making a major upgrade over the next year—switching from relying solely on the internal storage of water quality sondes to telemetry units that enable real-time data viewing. [caption id="attachment_39295" align="alignnone" width="940"] The first telemetry unit was installed at LCCD along Little Conestoga Creek.

From Florida to the World: How a Smithsonian Research Station is Bridging Gaps in Marine Biology
In the early 2000s, along the coast of northern California, where the redwoods dominate the forests, and the Pacific Ocean shapes shorelines, a Humboldt University undergraduate student took the first steps into a lifelong love of marine biology. Dean Janiak accepted an invitation to help a graduate student with fieldwork in rocky coastal tide pools, and so began a journey that led him from California to Connecticut to Florida and eventually to the world, where he has facilitated research in communities across the globe. While finishing up his masters of Oceanography from the University of Connecticut, Janiak continued researching fouling communities–marine life that live on hard, often artificial surfaces such as docks–at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center.
