3. Use the 0.1 g spoon (0699) to add 2 measures of *Ammonium Persulfate Reagent
(6566). Add two drops of *Silver Nitrate Solution, 0.0141N (6346WT). Mix until the

7.
At end of 20 minute waiting period fi ll a clean tube (0290) to the 10 mL line with the
developed test sample.
8. Fill a second clean tube (0290) to 10 mL line with deionized water or untreated
sample water. This is the blank.
9. Press and hold
ENTER
10. Press

14. Insert test sample into chamber, close lid and select Scan Sample. Record
result.
15. Press
to turn colorimeter off or press
make another menu selection.
NOTE: It is strongly suggested that a reagent blank be determined to account for any
contribution to the test result by the reagent system. To determine the reagent blank,
follow the above test procedure to scan a distilled or deionized water blank. Then follow
the above procedure to perform the test on a distilled or deionized water sample. This
test result is the reagent blank. Subtract the reagent blank from all subsequent test
results of unknown samples.
