LaMotte OCTET COMPARATOR & BI-COLOR READER - Manual (Page 3)

8. Slide the Octet Comparator until the
bottom of the lower row of standards is
level with the top of the Bi-Color
Reader. Hold the comparator so natural
light shines through the test tubes, and
compare the reacted sample to the first
and second color standards in the lower
row of the Octet Comparator. If the
color matches a standard, record the
result. If the color does not match a
standard, continue.
9. To compare the reacted sample to the color standards on the right
side of the Octet Comparator, move the reacted sample to the
opening in the right-hand side of the Octet Comparator. Move the
Distilled Water Ampoule (2748) and the blank samples to the right
side of the Bi-Color Reader, so that the ampoule is directly behind
the reacted sample and the blanks are on either side of the ampoule.
Compare the color of the reaction to the color standards as above.
