Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the ExStik® CL200 chlorine tester. The CL200 is a
revolutionary first of its kind measurement device that offers direct reading of Total Chlorine from

0.01 to 10.00 ppm. The electrode method employed by the ExStik

®

is approved by the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as an acceptable method for wastewater compliance
monitoring of total chlorine. For this type of electrode method, a reagent tablet* (supplied) must be
added to the measurement solution before testing. The advantages of the CL200 to the user
include: Easy to use and maintain, high accuracy, and fast response. The CL200 offers
simultaneous Chlorine and Temperature displays and a 15-reading memory storage. Careful use
and maintenance will provide years of reliable service.
