Tips for an Accurate Measurement
Ensure the sample does not contain any debris.
Hold dropper bottles completely vertically and squeeze slowly
to ensure correct drop size.
Whenever the cuvette is placed into the checker, it must be dry
outside and free of fingerprints, oil and dirt.
Wipe the cuvette thoroughly with HI731318 microfiber
cleaning cloth or a lint-free cloth prior to insertion.
Shaking the cuvette can generate bubbles, causing higher
readings. To obtain accurate measurements, remove such
bubbles by swirling or by gently tapping the cuvette.
Do not let the reacted sample stand too long after reagent has
been added, as accuracy will be affected.
Discard the sample immediately after the reading has been
taken or the glass might become permanently stained.
Prepare sample cuvette immediately after collecting sample from tank. Ammonia
is volatile and will dissipate if stored in a bottle before analysis, causing low
measurements.
Calculating Unionized Toxic Ammonia
This method measures NH
3
/ NH
4
+
. To determine the toxic NH
3
portion, use the table
to determine the percentage of toxic NH
3
. Levels of toxic NH
3
greater than 0.01 ppm
have a negative effect on fish. Multiply total ammonia (NH
3
/ NH
4
+
) by the percent
unionized ammonia from the table to determine unionized toxic ammonia.
Example: pH 8.0, Temperature: 24 °C (75 °F), NH
3
/ NH
4
+
1.00 ppm
Unionized toxic ammonia: 1.00 ppm x (5.0 % ÷ 100 )= 0.05 ppm

Battery Replacement
To save the battery, the checker shuts down after 10 minutes
of non-use.
A fresh battery lasts for a minimum of 5000 measurements.
When the battery is drained, the instrument displays “bAd”
then ”bAt”, and turns off.
To replace the battery, follow the next steps:
1. Press and hold the ON/OFF button to turn the checker off.
2. Turn the instrument upside down and use a screwdriver to
unfasten the screw and remove the battery cover.
3. Remove the old battery, replace it with a new 1.5V AAA
battery, inserting the negative end first.
4. Replace the battery cover, fasten and tighten the screw.
