Total Suspended Solids (TSS) Standards
Manufacturer: Ricca Chemical Company
The Total Suspended Solids (TSS) Standards from Ricca Chemical are essential for the calibration and verification of analytical methods used in environmental and wastewater testing. Formulated at a precise 100 ppm (mg/L) concentration, these standards provide a consistent baseline for laboratories monitoring compliance with EPA and local discharge regulations. To ensure the integrity of the suspended particles and prevent degradation from light exposure, these solutions are packaged in Amber Glass bottles. With a stable 12-month shelf life, they offer a reliable, ready-to-use alternative to the time-consuming process of preparing internal "house" standards.

Features:
- Ready-to-Use: Eliminates the variability and labor associated with weighing and hydrating particulate matter for manual standard preparation
- Amber Glass Protection: Shielding the solution from UV light prevents microbial growth and physical changes to the suspended solids, maintaining the 100 ppm titer
- Method Compliance: Ideal for use in Gravimetric methods (SM 2540D) and as a check standard for spectrophotometric TSS estimations
- Strict Quality Control: Every lot is tested to ensure precise concentration, providing the accuracy required for regulatory reporting
Handling Information:
- Suspended solids will naturally settle over time. Always shake the bottle vigorously immediately before pouring to ensure the aliquot you take is representative of the 100 ppm concentration.
- Do not return unused portions to the original bottle. Use a clean volumetric pipette or graduated cylinder for each measurement.
- When using this standard to verify your gravimetric setup, ensure you are using the correct glass fiber filter grade (e.g., Whatman 934-AH) to capture the 100 ppm particulate load accurately.
