A simply structured, cheap hexachromium monitor was developed. The monitor is based on UV/VIS absorption technique. A 2-m long water core optical fiber was employed as a long path length sample cell and a UV light emitting diode (LED) was used as a light source. The emission profile of the UV LED fits very well with the absorption spectrum of chromate ions in water. Therefore, the light-dispersing element, which is usually used in an optical spectrometer, is not necessary in this monitor design. The water core fiber as a long path length makes the monitor highly sensitive for hexachromium detection. This monitor is specific for hexachromium detection without interference from tri-valence chromium ions. A detection limit of 0.1 ng Cr(VI) ml(-1) was obtained with this simple monitor.
