Errors and warnings:

Light High: There is too much light to perform a measurement.
Please check the preparation of the zero cuvette.

Light Low: There is not enough light to perform a measurement. Please
check the preparation of the zero cuvette.

Inverted Cuvettes: The sample and the zero cuvette are inverted.

Under Range: A blinking “0.0” indicates that the sample absorbs less

light than the zero reference. Check the procedure and make sure you
use the same cuvette for reference (zero) and measurement.
Over Range: A flashing value of the maximum concentration indicates
an over range. Dilute the sample and re-run the test.

Battery Low: The battery must be replaced soon.

Dead Battery: This indicates that the battery is dead and must be

replaced. Once this indication is displayed, normal operation of the
instrument will be interrupted. Change the battery and restart the
meter.

Measurement procedure: Accessories:Tips for an accurate measurement

• Turn the meter on by pressing the button. All
segments will be displayed. When the display
shows “Add”, “C1” with “Press” blinking,
the meter is ready.

• Fill the cuvette with 10 mL of unreacted
sample and replace the cap. Place the cuvette
into the meter and close the meter’s cap.

• Press the button. When the display shows
“Add”, “C.2” with “Press” blinking the meter
is zeroed.

• Remove the cuvette, from the meter and
unscrew the cap. Add the content of one packet
of HI 716-0 reagent. Replace the cap and
shake gently for 20 seconds to dissolve most
of the reagent. Place the cuvette back into
the meter.

• Press and hold the button until the timer is
displayed on the LCD (the display will show
the countdown prior to the measurement)
or, alternatively, wait for 2 minutes and
30 seconds and press the button.

• The instrument directly displays the
concentration of bromine in ppm. The meter
automatically turns off after 10 minutes.

10 mL

• It is important that the sample does not contain any debris.

• Whenever the cuvette is placed into the measurement cell, it must be dry outside,
and completely free of fingerprints, oil and dirt. Wipe it thoroughly with
HI 731318 or a lint-free cloth prior to insertion.

• Shaking the cuvette can generate bubbles, causing lower readings. To obtain
accurate measurements, remove bubbles by swirling or by gently tapping the
cuvette.

• Do not let the reacted sample stand for too long after reagent is added, as accuracy
will be affected.

• After the reading it is important to immediately discard the sample, otherwise the
glass might become permanently stained.

Battery management

To save the battery, the instrument shuts down after 10 minutes of non-use.
One fresh battery lasts for a minimum of 5000 measurements. When the battery is dead the
instrument will display “bAd” then ”bAt” for 1 second and then turns off.
To restart the instrument, the battery must be replaced with a new one.
To replace the instrument’s battery:

• Turn the instrument off by holding the button until the meter shuts off.

• Turn the instrument upside down and remove the battery cover with a screwdriver.

• Remove the battery from its location and replace it with a new one, inserting the
negative end first.

• Insert the battery cover and replace the screw with a screwdriver.
