Tracing dyes come in a wide variety of colours. Depending on your use, environment, or situation you may need a particular colour (or colours) so that it contrasts with your environment. For example, you may need a fluorescent dye so that it is easily visible in dark areas. You can even use multiple colours to test multiple pipelines at once. | |||
BlueAlthough any colour can be used in clear water, blue dye is not fluorescent or as easily visible in large bodies of water, so is best used for small domestic applications such as drain and pipe analysis. |
||||
GreenIf you are working in a large body of water that is a little murky or brown then either green or yellow dye would suit your purposes best, especially if you are using visual methods of tracing. |
||||
YellowAs with the green dye, yellow is best used when working in murky or muddy waters because it is clearly visible to the naked eye. |
||||
RedIf the waters you are working with are green in colour then you are best using the red dye as this will create the greatest contrast for visual tracing. |
||||
PurplePurple dye is great for use on clear waters as its darker shade is readily visible. |
