MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
• Select the Manganese HR method using the procedure described in
the Method Selection section (see page 12).
• Fill the cuvette with 10 mL of unreacted sample (up to the
mark) and replace the cap.
• Place the cuvette into the holder and close the lid.
• Press the Zero key. The display will show “-0.0-” when the meter is zeroed and ready for
measurement.
• Remove the cuvette.
• Add the content of one packet of HI 93709A-0 Citrate reagent.
Replace the cap and invert to mix with gently movements for
2 minutes.
Manganese HR
MANGANESE HIGH RANGE
• Remove the cuvette.
• Using the other 1 mL syringe, add to the cuvette exactly 0.5 mL of sample.
Note: Do not mix up the two syringes!
• Replace the cap and invert several times to mix.
• Reinsert the cuvette into the instrument.
• Press Timer and the display will show the countdown prior to the measurement or, alternatively, wait
for 15 seconds and press Read. When the timer ends the meter will perform the reading.
• The instrument displays the results in mg/L of Magnesium (Mg 2+ ).
