MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
• Turn the meter on by pressing
ON/OFF.
• When the LCD displays
"- - -", it is ready.
• Fill the cuvet up to 1.5 cm
(¾") below the rim 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.
• Press ZERO and "SIP" will appear on the display.
• Wait for a few seconds and
the display will show
"-0.0-". Now the meter is
zeroed and ready for
measurement.
• Remove the cuvet and add the content of one packet of
HI 93716-0 Bromine Reagent. Replace the cap and
shake gently.

TIMED
• Reinsert the cuvet into the
instrument.
• Press READ TIMED and the display will show the
countdown prior to the measurement, or, alternatively
wait for 2 minutes and 30 seconds and press READ
DIRECT. In both cases "SIP" will appear during
measurement.
• The instrument directly displays concentration in mg/L of
bromine on the Liquid Crystal Display.
INTERFERENCES
Interference may be caused by:
Chlorine
Iodine
Ozone
Oxidized forms of chromium and manganese
Alkalinity above 300 mg/L and acidity above 150 mg/L as
CaCO
3
require neutralization since the color could instantly
fade. To resolve this, neutralize the sample with diluted HCl
or NaOH.
In case of water with hardness greater than 500 mg/L
CaCO

, shake the sample for approximately 1 minute after
adding the reagent.

Operational Guide
The instruction listed below should be carefully followed
during testing to ensure best accuracy.
• Do not touch the cuvet walls with hands.
• 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.
• Do not let the test sample stand too long after reagent is
added or accuracy will be lost.
• Whenever the cuvet is placed into the measurement cell,
it must be completely free of fingerprints, oil or dirt.
Wipe it thoroughly with HI 731318 or a lint-free cloth
prior to insertion.
• It is important that the sample does not contain any
debris. This would corrupt the readings.
• It is possible to take multiple readings in a row, but it is
recommended that a zero reading be taken for each
sample and that the same cuvet is used for zeroing and
measurement.
• It is important to discard the sample immediately after
the reading is taken because the glass might become
permanently stained.
• Shaking the cuvet can generate bubbles in the sample,
causing higher readings. To obtain accurate measurements,
remove such bubbles by swirling or by gently tapping the
vial.
• All the reaction times reported in this manual are referred
to 20°C (68°F). As a general rule of thumb, they should
be doubled at 10°C (50°F) and halved at 30°C (86°F).
Battery replacement must only take place in a non-hazardous
area using a 9V alkaline battery.
Simply slide off the battery cover on the back of the meter.
Detach the battery from the terminals and attach a fresh 9V
battery while paying attention to the correct polarity. Replace
the battery and the cover.
