1. Become familiar with the meter and the different tests by reading the instructions carefully.
2. The Free Chlorine, Combined Chlorine, and Total Chlorine reagents are compliant for meeting
USEPA (4500-Cl G); ISO 7393/2; and German DIN 38408 G4-2 requirements.
3. Observe the dip time (as required for the test) for accurate results.
4.
5. Be sure the CELL
6. Rinse the CELL with clean water immediately after completing the test. (DPD will stain the CELL
wall if allowed to remain in the CELL)
7. Just before testing, rinse the sample CELL with the sample water several times to get a
representative sample. (Use deionized or distilled water for rinsing if you have a limited amount of
sample).
8. Store the meter and all test materials out of direct sunlight and away from chemical storage areas.
9. Minimize exposure of meter and test reagents to heat above 32°C (90°F).
10. Dry the outside of the meter when testing is complete or before storage of the meter.
11. When running a DPD-1 Free Chlorine test AFTER a Total Chlorine DPD-3, a Total Chlorine DPD-4,
or a HR Free Chlorine test, rinsing is very important to remove residual KI, which may interfere.

12. Each eXact Strip Micro is valid for ONLY one test. Discard strip after single use in regular refuse
that is inaccessible to children and pets.
13. Each bottle of eXact
larger in width than the normal strips in the bottle. These should be discarded. Using these strips
may give incorrect results.
®
14. The eXact Chlorine Plus Meter is not compatible for use with DPD-1, DPD-3, and DPD-4 powder
pillows, tablets, or liquids available from other manufacturers. Accurate results can only be
guaranteed by using genuine eXact
15. Our lab testing with the Chlorine Plus meter has shown that zeroing and measuring of the sample
normally does not require any cell cover for accurate results, except in sunlight. To obtain optimal
accuracy when testing with the meter outdoors (sunlight), use the Mixing Cap/Cell Cover when
zeroing and reading the sample.
16. Remove batteries when meter is not used for more than a month (Warranty Requirement).
