ACCURATE AND AFFORDABLE NITRITE ULR MEASUREMENT
Nitrites are an inte rmediate form of nitroge n, 
produced when ammonia is converted into nitrate 
during the Nitrogen Cycle. As organic matter decays, it 
produces ammonia. Highly toxic ammonia is converted 
into nitrite by bacteria, and the nitrite is converted 
into nitrate by another bacteria. Nitrite is dangerous 
to aquatic life if it builds up, causing tissue damage 
that can lead to illness and death.
The HANNA HI 764 Checker®HC bridges the gap 
between simple chemical test kits and professional 
instrumentation. C hemical test kits are not very 
accurate and only give 5 to 10 points resolution while 
professional instrumentation can cost hundreds of 
dollars and can be time consuming to calibrate and
maintain. The HANNA HI 764 Checker®HC is accurate 
and affordable.
This Checker®HC features an accuracy of ±4% of reading 
and uses an adaptation of EPA Diazotization method.
The contoured style of this Checker®HC fits in your 
palm and pocket perfectly and the large LCD is easy to 
read. The auto shut-off feature assures the battery 
life will not be drained if you forget to turn it off. 
The  HI 764 Checker®HC is extremely simple to use. 
First, zero the instrument with your water sample. 
Next, add the reagent. Last, Place the vial into the  
HI 764 Checker®HC, press the button and read the 
results. It’s that easy.
