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 96702 Ion Selective Meter is supplied complete with: • Two Sample Cuvettes and Caps • CAL CHECK standard cuvettes •...
The cuvette is made from special optical glass to obtain best results. The HI 96702 meter measures the copper content in water and wastewater in the 0.00 to 5.00 mg/L (ppm) range. The method is an adaptation of the EPA approved method.
SPECIFICATIONS Range 0.00 to 5.00 mg/L Resolution 0.01 mg/L Accuracy ±0.02 mg/L ±4% of reading @ 25°C Typical EMC Deviation ±0.01 mg/L Tungsten lamp Light Source Light Detector Silicon Photocell with narrow band interference filter @ 575nm Method Adaptation of EPA approved method. The reaction between copper and the bicinchoninate reagent causes a purple tint in the sample.
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...
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.

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.
• 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.

• 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 the cuvette with 10 mL of unreacted sample, up to the mark, and replace the cap.

• Remove the cuvette. • Add the content of one packet of HI 93702-0 reagent. Replace the cap and shake gently. • Replace the cuvette into the cuvette holder and ensure that the notch on the cap is positioned securely into the groove. •...
• When the beeper sounds briefly and the LCD displays dashes, the meter is ready. • Place the CAL CHECK™ Standard HI 96702-11 Cuvette A into the cuvette holder and ensure that the notch on the cap is positioned securely into the groove.

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.
In the GLP mode, the last user 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.
• 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 . BATTERY MANAGEMENT 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.
