Dilution Ratio

measurement

The ratio of concentrated chemical to water used to prepare a working solution.

Definition

A dilution ratio like 1:100 means one part concentrate to 100 parts water. With tablets, dilution is expressed as tablets-per-volume, which is far less error-prone.

Why it matters

Manual dilution of liquid concentrates is the single largest source of dosing error in facility cleaning.

Practical applications

Use the on-site dilution calculator or a fixed-volume dispenser to guarantee correct strength on every batch.
