MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
• Select the
Chromium VI HR
method using the procedure described in
the
Method Selection
section (see page 12).
• Fill the cuvette up to the mark with 10 mL of unreacted sample and replace
the cap.
• Place the cuvette into the holder and close the lid.
• Press ZERO key. The meter will show “-0.0-” when the meter is zeroed
and ready for measurement.
• Remove the cuvette and add the content of one packet of
HI 93723-0 reagent. Replace the cap and shake vigorously
for about 10 seconds.
10 mL
• Press TIMER and the display will show the countdown prior to the measurement or, alternatively, wait
for 2 minutes and 30 seconds and press READ. When the timer ends the meter will perform the reading.
• The instrument displays the results in mg/L of total chlorine.
Note: free and total chlorine have to be measured separately with fresh unreacted samples following the
related procedure if both values are requested.
INTERFERENCES
Interference may be caused by: Bromine, Iodine, Ozone, Oxidized forms of Chromium and Manganese.
In case of water with hardness greater than 500 mg/L CaCO

, shake the sample for approximately 2
minutes after adding the powder reagent.
In case of water with alkalinity greater than 250 mg/L CaCO

,
the color of the sample may develop only partially, or may rapidly fade. To resolve this, neutralize the
sample with diluted HCl or NaOH.
