Proof: Certifications, Patents & Field Results

Quick Answer

What evidence backs up Halogen's chlorine analyzer claims?

The Halogen MP5 is certified to NSF/ANSI 61 and 372, is EPA Method 334.0 compliant and BABA compliant, and is protected by 11 patents originating from a U.S. Navy research program. Its performance is documented in independent third-party testing and in field results at utilities including Lakewood, Orange County, Iron Bridge, Palm Beach County, and Maui.

Patented technology

Halogen Systems holds 11 patents across the US, EU, Korea, China, and Germany covering its bare-electrode amperometric sensor, the SensiCLENE™ self-cleaning system, and multiparameter measurement. The core technology originated from a U.S. Office of Naval Research (Navy SBIR) program and has been commercialized for municipal drinking water, distribution, Legionella control, and maritime applications.

Accuracy & independent validation

The MP5 measures free chlorine to ±5% of reading or 0.02 mg/L. In an independent five-month evaluation at a Wessex Water (UK) treatment works, it ran with zero calibration, zero cleaning, and zero maintenance — and revealed that the incumbent sensor had been driving chronic chlorine over-dosing of 10.67% per operational cycle. A published 65-day study documents the MP5's stability against sensors that drift over the same window.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Halogen MP5 certified for drinking water?

Yes. The MP5 is certified to NSF/ANSI 61 and NSF/ANSI 372 for direct contact with drinking water, and it is the only amperometric chlorine sensor certified for direct in-pipe (wet-tap) installation. It is also EPA Method 334.0 compliant for regulatory reporting and BABA compliant for federally funded projects.

How many patents does Halogen Systems hold?

Halogen Systems holds 11 patents across the US, EU, Korea, China, and Germany covering its bare-electrode amperometric sensor, the SensiCLENE self-cleaning system, and multiparameter measurement. The technology originated from a U.S. Office of Naval Research (Navy SBIR) program.

Has the MP5 been independently validated?

Yes. In a five-month independent evaluation at a Wessex Water (UK) treatment works, the MP5 ran with zero calibration, zero cleaning, and zero maintenance while revealing that the incumbent sensor had been driving chronic chlorine over-dosing of 10.67% per cycle. Utilities including Lakewood, Orange County, Iron Bridge, Palm Beach County, and Maui have documented similar field results.

How accurate is the MP5?

The MP5 measures free chlorine to ±5% of reading or 0.02 mg/L. In the City of Lakewood pilot it held within 0.04 ppm of the reference method with zero calibration over six months, and a published 65-day study documents its stability against sensors that drift over the same period.
