GENERAL DESCRIPTION GENERAL DESCRIPTION GENERAL DESCRIPTION GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Hanna Instruments Ion Specific Meters are portable, microproces- sor-based colorimeters that measure the ion content in water and waste waters. The meters use an exclusive positive-locking system to ensure that the cuvet is in the same place every time it is placed into the measure- ment cell.

The quantity of radiation absorbed is given by the Lambert-Beer Law: log I /I = Where log I /I = Absorbance (A) = molar extinction coefficient of the substance at wavelength c = molar concentration of the substance d = optical distance light travels through sample Therefore, the concentration "c"...
It is recommended not to touch the cuvet walls with hands. Furthermore, in order to maintain the same conditions during the zeroing and the measuring phases, it is necessary to close the cuvet to prevent any contamination.

• At this point, follow the chlorine procedure on page 36. Note: Free and total chlorine have to be measured separately with fresh unreacted samples following the above procedure if both values are requested. CYANURIC ACID MEASUREMENTS • Press SET to select the cyanuric acid scale. “A” will appear on the LCD.
BROMINE MEASUREMENT BROMINE MEASUREMENT BROMINE MEASUREMENT BROMINE MEASUREMENT BROMINE MEASUREMENT 10 mL • Fill the cuvet up to the mark with 10 mL of unreacted sample and replace the cap. • Place the cuvet into the holder and ensure that the notch on the cap is positioned securely into the groove.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT BATTERY REPLACEMENT BATTERY REPLACEMENT BATTERY REPLACEMENT BATTERY REPLACEMENT To prolong battery life, switch your meter off after use. However, the meter has an auto-shut off feature that will turn itself off after 10 minutes of non-use. A "V" on the LCD indicates low voltage and the battery should be replaced.
If the instrument is to be returned to Hanna Instruments, first obtain a Returned Goods Authorization Number from the Customer Service department and then send it with shipment costs prepaid. When shipping any instrument, make sure it is properly packaged for complete protection.
