HM-SZ20 Handheld Heavy Metal Water Quality Detector

Product Introduction

The HM-SZ20 is a dedicated handheld heavy metal water quality detector designed for on-site screening of nine metallic elements — iron, copper, aluminium, zinc, manganese, nickel, chromium, mercury and arsenic. It fills a distinct product category within the HM Instruments handheld lineup by targeting heavy metal compliance scenarios that traditionally require laboratory-grade ICP-OES or AAS instruments costing $20,000–$80,000. With spectrophotometric detection, an imported cold light source and 0.001 absorbance sensitivity, the HM-SZ20 delivers reliable field-level heavy metal quantification at $1,400. Electroplating facilities monitoring Cr and Ni discharge, metallurgical operations tracking Fe and Mn in process water, and drinking water utilities screening As and Hg can all deploy a single portable device that covers nine critical elements without outsourcing analysis or transporting samples to distant laboratories.

Applications

• Electroplating facility heavy metal discharge compliance monitoring (Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn)

• Metallurgical and mining water environment heavy metal survey (Fe, Mn, Cu, As)

• Drinking water treatment heavy metal screening (As, Hg, Fe, Mn, Al)

• Electronic industry wastewater metal contamination assessment (Cu, Ni, Cr)

• Petroleum and chemical refinery heavy metal effluent testing

• River and lake heavy metal pollution emergency response

Functional Performance

1. Nine heavy metal elements measured in a single handheld device — Fe, Cu, Al, Zn, Mn, Ni, Cr, Hg, As.

2. Spectrophotometric detection with 0.001 absorbance resolution for precise low-concentration metal analysis.

3. Cost-effective alternative to ICP ($20,000–$80,000) and AAS instruments for field metal screening.

4. Imported cold light source with up to 100,000 hours operational lifespan.

5. Automatic wavelength selection eliminating manual filter changes between metal parameters.

6. Android smart operating system with 3.5-inch color LCD touch screen for intuitive metal analysis workflow.

7. 80,000+ record onboard data storage for long-term heavy metal monitoring campaigns.

8. Type-C, WiFi, and Bluetooth connectivity for data export and cloud reporting.

9. 5,600 mAh lithium battery supporting 8-hour continuous on-site metal detection.

10. 325 g handheld form factor (190 × 77 × 72 mm) for portable deployment across multiple monitoring sites.
