MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
• Fill the beaker up to the 50 mL mark with sample,
place the stir bar into the beaker and then place the
beaker in the appropriate place on the instrument top.
• Place the electrode holder on the top of the beaker
and secure it by turning clockwise. Close all unused
holes of the beaker holder.
• Immerse HI 61101 ammonia electrode and the
HI 7662-T temperature probe approximately 2 cm
(0.8“) into the sample to be tested paying attention
to not touch the stir bar, and press Start.
• Use the 1000 µL automatic pipette to add exactly 1 mL
HI 84185-0 ISA and immediately close the stopper.
• Wait until the reading is stable, CFM key displayed, if
the “Reading confirm” option is selected, and then
press CFM. If the “Reading confirm” option is
disabled the instrument automatically memorizes the
reading when this is stable and waits to add standard.
Until the standard addition is detected the instrument
will beep if beeper is enabled in Setup.
