Halogen Sensor Savings Over Older Technology Sensors Water Cost Savings Unlike other chlorine analyzers, Halogen MP5 sensors are certified to NSF61 standards for safe drinking water exposure, eliminating the need to waste treated water. Traditional sensors generate significant waste streams, often exceeding 70,000 gallons annually, with one customer reporting 138,000 gallons from a prior instrument. At billable water rates ranging from $0.007 to over $0.01 per gallon, this translates to a minimum cost of $490 per year.
