    Range 0.00 to 3.00 mg/L ‑N Resolution 0.01 mg/L ‑N Accuracy ±0.04 mg/L ±4% of reading @25 °C (77 °F) Light Source Tungsten lamp Light Detector Silicon Photocell with narrow band interference filter @420 nm Adaptation of ASTM Manual of Water and Environmental Technology Method D1426 Nessler method.
  • Page 7 The optical system of Hanna Instruments’ HI96 series colorimeters is based on special subminiature tungsten lamp and narrow‑band interference filters to guarantee both high performance and...
  • Page 8 A microprocessor controlled special tungsten lamp emits radiation which is first optically conditioned and beamed to the sample contained in the cuvette. The optical path is fixed by the diameter of the cuvette. Then the light is spectrally filtered to a narrow spectral bandwidth, to obtain a light beam of intensity I or I.

  • Page 10: Operating Modes

    OPERATING MODES • Measurement mode: default operation mode, enables both validation and measurement. • Calibration mode: may be entered by keeping CAL CHECK pressed for three seconds (the “CAL” tag appears), it enables calibration of the instrument. • GLP mode may be entered by pressing GLP/ (“GLP” appears), it enables consulting of user calibration date or restore factory calibration.
  • Page 11 The instrument shows clear messages when erroneous condition appears. Messages are also displayed when the obtained values are outside expected range. The beeper is playing a beep on errors. a) on zero reading Light High: There is too much light to perform a measurement. Please check the preparation of the zero cuvette.
  • Page 12 Under Range: A blinking “0.00” indicates that the sample absorbs less light than the zero reference. Check the procedure and make sure you use the same cuvette for reference (zero) and measurement. Over Range: A flashing value of the maximum concentration indicates an over range condition.
  • Page 13 Battery low: The battery must be replaced soon. Dead battery: This indicates that the battery is dead and must be replaced. Once this indication is displayed, normal operation of the instrument will be interrupted. Change the battery and restart the meter. The instructions listed below should be carefully followed during testing to ensure best accuracy.
  • Page 14 • Whenever the cuvette is placed into the measurement cell, it must be dry outside, and completely free of fingerprints, oil or dirt. Wipe it thoroughly with HI731318 or a lint‑free cloth prior to insertion. • Shaking the cuvette can generate bubbles in the sample, causing higher readings. To obtain accurate measurements, remove such bubbles by swirling or by gently tapping the cuvette.
  • Page 15 To compensate the meter for the sample turbidity or color, the measurement takes place in two phases. First, the meter is zeroed using the unreacted sample. After the reagents are added the reacted sample is measured. • Turn the meter on by pressing ON/OFF. The display briefly shows all tags on. •...
  • Page 16 • Press ZERO/CFM and the lamp, cuvette and detector icons will appear on the display, depending on the measurement phase. • After a few seconds, the display will show “-0.0-”. The meter is now zeroed and ready for measurement. • Add 4 drops of the HI93700A‑0. •...
  • Page 17 • Press and hold READ /TIMER for three seconds. The display will show the countdown prior to measurement. The beeper is playing a beep at the end of countdown period. 3’’ • Alternatively, wait for 3 minutes and 30 seconds then just press READ /TIMER. In all cases, the lamp, cuvette and detector icons will appear on the display, depending on the measurement phase.
  • Page 18 Use the validation procedure to ensure that the instrument is properly calibrated. Warning: Do not validate the instrument with any standard solutions other than the Hanna Instruments CAL Check Standards, otherwise erroneous results will be obtained. • Turn the meter on by pressing ON/OFF.
  • Page 19 • After a few seconds, the display will show “-0.0-”. The meter is now zeroed and ready for validation. • Remove the cuvette. • Place the CAL Check Standard HI96700‑11 Cuvette B into the cuvette holder and ensure that the notch on the cap is positioned securely into the groove. •...
  • Page 20 Note: It is possible to interrupt calibration procedure at any time by pressing CAL CHECK or ON/OFF keys. Warning: Do not calibrate the instrument with standard solutions other than the Hanna Instruments CAL Check Standards, otherwise erroneous results will be obtained.
  • Page 21 • After a few seconds the display will show “-0.0-”. The meter is now zeroed and ready for calibration. The blinking “READ” asks for reading calibration standard. • Remove the cuvette. • Place the CAL Check Standard HI96700‑11 Cuvette B into the cuvette holder and ensure that the notch on the cap is positioned securely into the groove.

  • Page 22: Date Input

    Note: If the display shows “STD HIGH”, the standard value was too high. If the display shows “STD LOW”, the standard value was too low. Verify that both CAL Check Standards HI96700-11 Cuvettes, A and B are free of fingerprints or dirt and that they are inserted correctly.
  • Page 23 • When the correct month has been set, press ZERO/CFM or READ /TIMER to confirm. Now the display will show the day blinking. • Press GLP/ to edit the desired day (01‑31). If the key is kept pressed, the day number is automatically increased.

  • Page 24: Last Calibration Date

    In GLP mode, the last calibration date can be verified and the factory calibration can be restored. LAST CALIBRATION DATE To display the calibration date: • Press GLP/ to enter GLP mode. The calibration month and day will appear on the main display and the year on the secondary display.
  • Page 25 • Press ZERO/CFM to restore the factory calibration or press GLP/ again to abort factory calibration restore. • The instrument briefly indicates “donE” upon restoration of factory calibration prior to returning to measurement mode. To save battery, the instrument shuts down after 10 minutes of non‑use in measurement mode and after 1 hour of non‑use in calibration mode.
  • Page 26 To replace the instrument’s battery, follow the steps: • Turn the instrument off by pressing ON/OFF. • Turn the instrument upside down and remove the battery cover by turning it counterclockwise. • Extract the battery from its location and replace it with a fresh one. •...
