Reliable Nitrate/Nitrite Analyzers for Precision Water Testing
Monitor nitrate and nitrite levels with high-performance analyzers municipal built for industrial,, and environmental applications
Ensuring Water Safety with Nitrate and Nitrite Analyzers
Nitrate and nitrite analyzers play a critical role in environmental monitoring, industrial wastewater treatment, and drinking water safety. Excessive levels of these compounds can lead to significant ecological damage and public health risks, making accurate detection essential for regulatory compliance and operational control.Modern nitrate/nitrite analyzers provide continuous, real-time measurements with minimal maintenance and high sensitivity. These systems are used in both field and fixed installations, offering reliable data collection under variable and demanding conditions. By automating detection and reporting, organizations can better manage treatment efficiency, detect contamination, and minimize nutrient runoff.Water Quality Instruments serves B2B clients throughout North America, delivering reliable analyzer solutions supported by expert technical guidance, strict quality controls, and advanced integrations. Our innovative nitrate/nitrite systems are designed to improve monitoring, compliance, and process performance across a range of water-focused industries.

Hardware Components
- UV Absorption Sensors – Measure nitrate directly through UV light absorption, eliminating the need for chemical reagents.
These sensors are supported by our Optical & Imaging Sensors, offering consistent spectral analysis performance in lab and field applications. - Colorimetric Analyzers – Perform nitrate and nitrite detection using color-based chemical reactions and optical interpretation.
Best paired with our Colorimeters, these devices enable accurate results in both fixed installations and mobile testing. - Ion-Selective Electrodes (ISEs) – Use targeted sensing to detect nitrate and nitrite ions with high sensitivity.
These precision tools align with our Ion Metersto ensure seamless integration in water quality testing workflows. - Multiparameter Probes – Combine nitrate/nitrite analysis with other parameters like pH, dissolved oxygen, and ammonia.
Enhanced by our Environmental & Agriculture Sensors, these systems allow simultaneous measurements across multiple water quality indicators. - Portable Field Meters – Compact and rugged tools designed for real-time nitrate testing during field inspections or emergency sampling.
These meters are ideal with our BLE Gateways, Beacons & Accessories, providing fast wireless connectivity for mobile field operations.

Case Studies
Guelph, ON (Canada)
A groundwater monitoring network integrated nitrate analyzers into wellheads across the city’s perimeter. The project supported early detection of agricultural impacts on drinking water supplies and strengthened regional water safety planning.
Salinas, CA (USA)
In an agricultural watershed, nitrate sensors were used to study runoff from irrigated fields. The system helped inform fertilizer management strategies, reducing nutrient loading in nearby creeks and streams.
Cincinnati, OH (USA)
An urban wastewater plant deployed inline nitrate analyzers to monitor secondary effluent quality. The data enabled the optimization of denitrification processes, reducing nitrate discharges and improving compliance with local environmental permits.
