• Using the plastic pipette, fill each glass vial with 5 mL of sample (up to the mark).
• Insert one of them into the left hand opening of the checker disc. This is the blank.
• Rotate the disc while looking at the color test windows and stop when you find the color match. Read the value in the result window directly in pH units.
Note: A concentration of Chlorine above 50 ppm causes
interference inhibiting the development of the color. In this case require the HI 38058/O Test Kit.

Dear Customer, Thank you for choosing a Hanna Product. Please read the instruction sheet carefully before using the
test kit. It will provide you with the necessary information for correct use of the kit. If you need additional information, do not hesitate to e-mail us at tech@hannainst.com.
Each kit is supplied with:
HI 38058-0 pH 4.0-10.0 Reagent, 1 bottle with
• dropper (30 mL);
1 checker disc (containing the 38058 disc);
• 2 glass vials with caps;
• 1 plastic pipette (3 mL).
Note: Any damaged or defective item must be returned in
its original packing materials.
pH represents acidity or alkalinity of an aqueous solution and is proportional to the hydrogen-ion concentration of the solution. Under neutral conditions water is dissociated into
-
the OH
and H+ ions in equal ratio and hence it has a pH of 7. When bases or acids are added to a water solution they ionize, increasing the concentration of OH respectively. Thus solutions with a pH of 1-3 contain strong acids, whereas those with a pH of 4-6 contain weak acids. Weak bases result in solutions of pH 8-10 and strong bases in pH of 11-13.

• Add to the other glass vial 2 drops of HI 38058-0 reagent. Replace the cap and mix the solution by gently swirling. This is the reacted sample.
• Remove the cap and in­sert the reacted sample into the right hand open­ing of the checker disc.
• Hold the checker disc so that a light source illumi­nates the samples from the back windows.
For best results: Intensely colored samples will make the
color matching determination difficult and they should be adequately treated before performing the test. Suspended matter in large amounts should be re­moved by prior filtration.
Caution: Ultraviolet radiation may cause fading of colors.
When not in use, keep the disc protected from light, in a cool and dry place.
