Note: The meter will remember the last scanned blank reading. It is not necessary to
scan a blank each time the test is performed. To use the previous blank reading,
instead of scanning a new one, scroll to Scan Sample and proceed. For the most
accurate results, the meter should be blanked before each test and the same tube with
tubepositioningringshouldbeusedfortheblankandthereactedsample.
Testing Tips
1. Wash tubes thoroughly after testing to prevent staining of tubes and
contamination of future test reactions with DPD residue.
2. When using liquid DPD reagents, invert bottle in a completely vertical position to
dispense uniform drops. Do not tilt bottle at an angle.
3. Follow instructions. Obey time limits.
4. In samples with extremely high chlorine concentrations, above 10 ppm, the
reagent system will show an initial flash of dark pink color that will fade quickly.
Dilute the sample and test again.
5. When testing salt water, double the amount of reagent used. Use ten drops of
each DPD liquid reagent or two DPD tablets.
6. Oxidized manganese (permanganate) will interfere with this test. Iodine and
bromine will give a positive interference.
7. A permanganate check standard is not recommended for calibration when using
the liquid DPD reagent system.
8. The averaging option is not available for the chlorine test.
