High Range Chloride test procedure
This test requires a 1:20 dilution of the salt system sample – Mini Dilution Kit (Part No. 487202)
PREPARE SAMPLE FOR TESTING
1
Using the Mini Dilution Kit (Part No. 487202) and Distilled or Deionized (salt–free water)
prepare a 1 to 20 (1:20) dilution of your sample.
PREPARE DILUTION SAMPLE
1. Rinse the syringe 3 times with salt system sample that you want to test by moving the plunger up and down.
2. Rinse 50 mL graduated conical tube with distilled or deionized (salt–free) water.
3. Rinse the 3.0 mL syringe with water sample to be tested. Fill the 3.0 mL syringe to the 2.0 mL line precisely
(plunger ring should line up at the 2.0 mL line and little or no air bubble should be present).
4. Add the syringe content (2.0 mL salt system sample) to the clean 50 mL graduated conical tube by pushing the
plunger all the way down to expel sample.
5. Fill the graduated conical tube to the 40 mL line with distilled or deionized (salt–free) water and place cap on top.
6. Mix content of graduated conical tube by turning upside down at least 3 times.
Sample is now ready for testing.
