PROCEDURE
3.
Use the yellow
scoop (31712) to
add one level
measure of
*Arsenic Reagent
#1 Powder (4054).
Remove cap. Use
the red scoop
(31709) to add one
level measure of
*Arsenic Reagent
#2 Powder (4055).
2.
Fill a bottle (28145)
to the upper (250
mL) line with the
sample to be tested.
NOTE: For the
most accurate results,
the temperature of
the sample should be
between 18° -24°C
(65-75° F).
1.
NOTE:
Hydrogen sulfide will interfere with
the test result. If the sample
contains hydrogen sulfide, wait 2
minutes before proceeding with
Step 6. This will minimize the
interference of up to 2 ppm
hydrogen sulfide.

6.
Remove cap. Use
the white scoop
(31710) to add one
level measure of
*Arsenic Reagent
#3 Powder (4056).
Cap the bottle
with the black
cap. Hold bottle
upright. Shake
vigorously for
5 seconds.

Open test strip
pop-top bottle.
Remove one
*Arsenic Test
Strip (4057).
Immediately close
test strip bottle.
10.
Remove the black
cap from the bottle.
Place the white fliptop cap, with the
spout open, on the
bottle.
Insert test strip
into open spout
of the white cap
with the red line
and the pad
facing the tallest
edge of the spout.
9.
Flip open the spout
of the white flip-top
cap (28556).
8.
13.
Wait 10 minutes.
NOTE: The reaction
should be performed in
a well-ventilated area.
Gas bubbles will form
during the reaction. Do
not disturb the bottle
during the reaction
period.
12.
11.
14.
Flip up the spout
and carefully
remove the test
strip. Do not
touch the pad.
Immediately
compare the color
of the pad to the
Arsenic Color
Chart (4053-02CC). The reaction
must be read
within 30 seconds.
Record the result
as ppb Arsenic.
Insert the strip
into the spout
until the red line
is even with the
top of the spout.
Flip the spout
down to hold the
test strip in place.

NOTE: For best accuracy at levels greater than 30 ppb arsenic.
Dilute the sample and retest as follows: Fill the bottle to the lower (50ml)line with
the sample to be tested. Fill the bottle to the upper (250ml) line with arsenic free
water. Follow steps 2-15 of the test procedure. Multiply the result aby 5. Record the
result as ppb Arsenic.

After testing, pour the reacted sample down the drain with excess water.
Avoid using sinks in food preparation areas. Rinse bottles and all caps
with water. Before running the next test, shake off as much water as
possible from the caps. Place used strips in the Waste Bag for later
disposal according to local regulations for mercury waste.
