Before starting
A manual calibration is necessary for this procedure, refer to
the user program for each new lot of arsenic absorber solution.
Prepare the arsenic absorber solution before starting the test procedure. Refer to
Set up the distillation apparatus in a fume hood to prevent exposure to hazardous gas.
In bright light conditions (e.g., direct sunlight), close the cell compartment, if applicable, with the protective cover during
measurements.
Do not use the Pour-Thru Cell or sipper module (for applicable instruments) with this test.
Review the Safety Data Sheets (MSDS/SDS) for the chemicals that are used. Use the recommended personal protective
equipment.
Dispose of reacted solutions according to local, state and federal regulations. Refer to the Safety Data Sheets for disposal
information for unused reagents. Refer to the environmental, health and safety staff for your facility and/or local regulatory
agencies for further disposal information.
