Method 8021
Powder Pillows or AccuVac
Scope and Application:
treated waters, estuary, and seawater. USEPA accepted for reporting for drinking water analyses.**
* Adapted from Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater.
** Procedure is equivalent to USEPA method 330.5 and Standard Method 4500-Cl G for drinking water.
Tips and Techniques
• Analyze samples immediately. Do not preserve for later analysis.
• After adding reagent to the sample cell, a pink color will develop if free chlorine is present.
• If the test overranges, dilute the sample with a known volume of high quality, chlorine demand-free water (Cat. No. 26415-49) and
repeat the test. Some loss of chlorine may occur due to the dilution. Multiply the result by the dilution factor. See Section 2.7
Sample Dilution on page 21.
• Wipe the outside of sample cells before each insertion into the instrument cell holder. Use a damp towel followed by a dry one to
remove fingerprints or other marks.
