6.1 Sample measurement notes
Read the notes that follow before sample measurements.
• Rinse the probe with deionized water and dry with a lint-free cloth between measurements to
prevent contamination.
• If the stabilization time is long, try a different stir rate and make sure to condition the probe.
• Keep all of the solutions (standard solutions and samples) at the same temperature (± 2 °C
(± 3.6 °F)) for best results.
• If complete traceability is necessary, enter a sample ID and operator ID before measurement.
Refer to the meter manual for instructions.
• Stir the standards and samples at a slow and constant rate to prevent the formation of a vortex.
• The meter automatically saves the measurement data when the user manually reads each data
point and when the meter is set to read at regular intervals. The user must manually save each
data point when the meter is set to read continuously.
• Air bubbles below the sensor can cause a slow response or error in the measurement. Make sure
to remove air bubbles before and during measurements.
6.2 Sample measurement procedure
1. Pour 25 mL of
fresh sample into a
50‑mL beaker.
5. Put the probe in
the sample with the
sensor fully in the
sample. Do not put
the probe on the
bottom or sides of
the beaker.
6.3 Low-level measurements
Use the guidelines that follow for measurements at low concentrations (<10 mg/L Cl
• Clean the probe regularly as specified in
2. Add one Chloride
Ionic Strength
Adjustor (ISA)
Powder Pillow.
6. Shake the probe
from side to side to
refresh the reference
junction and remove
air bubbles.
Maintenance
3. Add a stir bar.
Put the beaker on an
electromagnetic
stirrer. Stir at a
moderate rate.
7. Stir for 30 to
60 seconds, then
read the chloride
concentration of the
sample. The display
shows the value
when the reading is
stable.

4. Rinse the probe
with deionized water.
Dry the probe with a
lint-free cloth.
