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

Angler-Driven Citizen Science: Monitoring Black Bass Populations in Arkansas
In Arkansas, the rugged terrain of the Ozark and Ouachita Mountains dominates the north and west, eventually yielding to the vast, fertile flatlands of the Mississippi River Delta to the east. Hundreds of reservoirs and lakes punctuate the landscape, while swift streams snake through the valleys and hills, eventually giving way to the slow-moving rivers and bayous in the south. The waterways of the state are teeming with life. Black bass dominate most of these ecosystems and have drawn anglers for centuries. The most sought-after fish in one of the country's most prominent fishing states, Arkansas treasures its black bass populations.

White Lake in Western Michigan is a vestige of North America’s glacial past, and gets its name from an interpretation of the Indian, “Wabish-Sippe,” meaning the river with white clay. The twin towns of Whitehall and Montague, which nestle on White Lake’s shore, have shared a close connection with the lake since their foundation–from the growth of the lumbering industry, to industrializsation, the expansion of tourism, and most recently, environmental protection. The White Lake Association (WLA) was founded in 1988 by residents concerned about proposed development at the lake’s northern end.

The flow dynamics of rivers and streams play an essential role in the chemical and physical functions of aquatic ecosystems. In Maine, varying flows in the Penobscot River Basin have impacted the health of the ecosystem, water resource use, and habitat suitability for native species—topics of particular concern to the Penobscot Indian Nation , who have been protecting and managing the waterway for millennia. Parts of the Penobscot basin have been monitored by the USGS stream gage network, which covers larger streams and rivers but excludes many of the small streams found on tribal lands.
