  • Page 3: Preliminary Examination

    PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION Please examine this product carefully. Make sure that the instrument is not damaged. If any damage occurred during shipment, please notify your Dealer. Each HI 96700 Ion Selective Meter is supplied complete with: • Two Sample Cuvettes and Caps •...
  • Page 4: General Description

    GENERAL DESCRIPTION The HI 96700 is an auto diagnostic portable microprocessor meter that benefits from Hanna’s years of experience as a manufacturer of analytical instruments. It has the advanced optical system based on a special Tungsten Lamp and a narrow band interference filter that allows most accurate and repeatable readings.

    SPECIFICATIONS Range 0.00 to 3.00 mg/L Resolution 0.01 mg/L Accuracy ±0.04 mg/L ±4% of reading@ 25°C Typical EMC Deviation ±0.01 mg/L Light Source Tungsten lamp Light Detector Silicon Photocell with narrow band interference filter @ 420nm Method Adaptation of the ASTM Manual of Water and Environmental Technology, method D1426-92 Nessler method.
  • Page 6: Principle Of Operation

    PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION Absorption of Light is a typical phenomenon of interaction between electromagnetic radiation and matter. When a light beam crosses a substance, some of the radiation may be absorbed by atoms, molecules or crystal lattices. If pure absorption occurs, the fraction of light absorbed depends both on the optical path length through the matter and on the physical-chemical characteristics of the substance according to the Lambert-Beer Law: = ε...
  • Page 7: Functional Description

    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 8 KEYPAD DESCRIPTION • ON/OFF: to turn the meter on and off. • ZERO/CFM: this is a bi-functional key. Just press to zero the meter prior to measurement, or confirm edited values. In calibration mode press to confirm factory calibration restore. •...
  • Page 9: Errors And Warnings

    ERRORS AND WARNINGS 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 10 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.

    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. GENERAL TIPS FOR AN ACCURATE MEASUREMENT The instructions listed below should be carefully followed during testing to ensure best accuracy.
  • Page 12: Startup

    • 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 HI 731318 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 13 • When the beeper sounds briefly and the LCD displays dashes, the meter is ready. The blinking “ZERO” indicates that the instrument needs to be zeroed first. • Fill one cuvette with 10 mL of unreacted sample, up to the mark. •...
  • Page 14 • 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. • At the end of measurement, the instrument directly displays concentration in mg/L of ammonia nitrogen (NH -N) on the LCD.
  • Page 15: Validation Procedure

    VALIDATION PROCEDURE 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 CAL Standards, otherwise erroneous results will be obtained. CHECK • Turn the meter on by pressing ON/OFF. •...
  • Page 16 • Press CAL CHECK and the lamp, cuvette and detector icons together with “CAL CHECK” will appear on the display, depending on the measurement phase. • At the end of the measurement the display will show the validation standard value. The reading should be within specifications as reported in the CAL CHECK Standard Certificate.
  • Page 17: Calibration Procedure

    CALIBRATION PROCEDURE 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 CAL CHECK Standards, otherwise erroneous results will be obtained. •...
  • Page 18 • 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 HI 96700-11 Cuvette B into the cuvette holder and ensure that the notch on the cap is positioned securely into the groove.
  • Page 19 DATE INPUT • Press GLP/ to edit the desired year (2009-2099). If the key is kept pressed, the year number is automatically increased. • When the correct year has been set, press ZERO/CFM or READ/ /TIMER to confirm. Now the display will show the month blinking.
  • Page 20: Glp

    • The instrument will return automatically to measurement mode by displaying dashes on the LCD. 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: •...
  • Page 21: Battery Management

    • Press READ/ /TIMER to enter in the factory calibration restore screen. The instrument asks for confirmation of user calibration delete. • 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 .
  • Page 22: Battery Replacement

    BATTERY REPLACEMENT 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. •...
