Calibration

Because of the innovative PrimeLab technology, especially in conjunction with the JENCOLOR MultiColour sensor, it is no longer necessary to return the photometer for calibration. The precision of the sensor is so good that the strength of the light source (LED) is measured and the system is calibrated on basis of the calculated value. Calibration should be carried out on a regular basis (e.g. at least 2 weekly) to ensure accurate test results at all times.

In start menu press button 4 to access the SETUP menu.

In setup list scroll up with button 2 and down with button 3 until “Calibration” appears in white on black.

Press button 4.

Select calibration procedures to be carried out by scrolling with keys 2 and 3 by the following list:

PrimeLab Turbidity adapter PTSA adapter Fluorescein adapter

The calibration procedures ending on "adapter" are only needed for parameter-IDs 111 (PTSA) / 112 (Turbidity -NTU-) and 113 (Fluorescein). For all other parameter-IDs, first calcibration option "PrimeLab" is applicable.

Press button 4 to confirm your selection.

If you select “PrimeLab“:

The procedure described below is also shown on the display (3 steps) and can be read in its entirety by scrolling up and down with button 2 and button 3.

Calibration is initiated by pressing button 4 and should only be started after the steps described on the display / in the following description have been taken!

If there is a cuvette inside the device, please remove it.

Place the “Light protection sleeve for 16 mm cuvette” in the (empty / with no cuvette inserted) sample chamber (align with ^ symbol!).

Press button 4 to start the calibration procedure.

The calibration procedure takes no longer than 10 seconds and is confirmed with the message “Calibration successful”.

Press button 4 again to save the calibration value in the system and return to the sub-menu “SETUP”.

Calibration

The following refers to calibration of ID 111/112/113 (PTSA/Turbidity/Fluorescein):

As this Parameter uses an indirect light from above, it is essential to always ensure the correct amount of water in the vial, which is why exactly 10 ml of liquid should be taken when doing a test. To achieve this, use the pipette which is part of the Adapter-kit. Please change or clean the tip of the pipette after each measurement/calibration using destilled water.

Please perform a new calibration for the parameters of the ID111 / 112 / 113 if the measurement results obtained appear to be inaccurate or no longer correspond to the value of the standard solutions supplied.

If you select „Turbidity-adapter“:

You first have to perform a „PrimeLab calibration“ !!! See page „SET 4"

Calibration steps, as shown below, will be displayd on the PrimeLab as well. Please make sure the standard vials (0.5/10/1000 NTU) are free from ﬁngerprints and dirt. Clean vials properly by using the cloth provided in your kit, prior inserting into the PrimeLab.

Use caution to shaking-/rest-instructions

on the standard vials (0.5/10/1000 NTU):

0.5 NTU standard vial: Let vial rest for at least 3 hours before use for the calibration purposes. Turn vial TWO TIMES before you open it. Do not shake! 10 NTU standard vial: Turn vial THREE TIMES before you open it. Do not shake! 1000 NTU standard vial: Shake vial heavily before you open it!

Open „0.5 NTU“ standard vial and insert without lid and with forward arrow into the PrimeLab.

Set Turbidity adapter on top of the open cell. Press TEST. Remove vial from PrimeLab and close it properly for future use. Open „10 NTU“ standard vial and insert without lid and with forward arrow into the

PrimeLab. Set Turbidity adapter on top of the open cell. Press TEST. Remove vial from PrimeLab and close it properly for future use. Open „1000 NTU“ standard vial and insert without lid and with forward arrow into

the PrimeLab. Set Turbidity adapter on top of the open cell.

Press TEST.

ID 112 is now calibrated successfully.

SET 6SET 6

If you select „PTSA-/ Fluorescein-adapter“:

Select a 24mm glass vial for future PTSA and Fluorescein tests. Fill vial with 10ml of distilled water. USE PIPETTE TO ENSURE 10ml! Place vial into the PrimeLab. Do not close it! Place PTSA-/Fluorescein-adapter on top of the open cuvette. Press TEST. Remove vial from PrimeLab. Empty vial.

Fill vial with 10ml of reference-solution „500 ppb PTSA“ / „100 ppb Fluorescein“. USE PIPETTE!

Place vial into the PrimeLab. Do not close it! Place PTSA-/Turbidity-adapter on top of the open cuvette. Press TEST. Calibation was sucessful!

Please use ONLY THIS VIAL for future PTSA/Flurescein tests!

Error Messages

During calibration and / or during the measurement, the following error messages might be displayed on the PrimeLab:

Adapter not recognized - Possible causes:

Ÿ Battery depleted Ÿ Adapter incorrectly (eg diagonally) placed Ÿ Wrong adapter used (eg PTSA instead Turbidity) Ÿ Adapter-lense (bottom) or optical path in the sample chamber Ÿ (PrimeLab) dirty or wet

Measurement failed - Possible causes:

Ÿ Battery depleted Ÿ Adapter incorrectly (eg diagonally) placed Ÿ The identified water sample does not match the turbidity curve Ÿ Wrong adapter used (eg PTSA instead of Turbidity) Ÿ Adapter-lense (bottom) or optical path in the sample chamber Ÿ (PrimeLab) dirty or wet

If the message reads “Calibration: ERROR!” or

“LED problem. Please check!” please abort the procedure and check that

there is no cuvette in the sampling chamber and that the sampling

chamber and especially the two “windows” on the sensor / LED level are

clean (see also “Cleaning the device” on page A 3).

Restart the calibration procedure.

If the device fails to calibrate after a second attempt it must be returned to

the manufacturer for inspection.

Continued...

Calibration

The following refers to calibration of ID 111/113 (PTSA/Fluorescein):

For ID 111 and ID 113 it is essential to always use the same vial for calibration as well as for testing as adapter shines from above and each vial has different bottom

Due to the above it is essential to always use the same vial for testing which has been used for calibration!

Important notes for accurate testing

TEST-8

Please read the following instructions carefully because these must be strictly observed to ensure accurate measurements:

Before inserting the cuvette into the sampling chamber please ensure that the cuvette is absolutely dry and clean, that there is no soiling by fingerprints etc., so that the light ray transmitted by the device for testing is not refracted or blocked. It is best to wipe the outside of the cuvette with a clean and dry cloth before inserting it.

The cuvette lid, the cuvette itself and the stirring rod (if used) must be clean, to ensure that the samples to be tested are not contaminated by dirt, residues or remaining reagents of a previous test.

Never clean cuvette, lid or stirring rod with a detergent as these will leave residues and could influence any subsequent tests.

It is best to always use the same cuvette for any single parameter and to mark the cuvette on the outside on the bottom with a waterproof marker accordingly for this particular parameter.

The cuvette must also be free of any scratches as these would divert the light ray transmitted during the test. Replace any scratched or damaged cuvettes with new ones.

Make sure that you use only photometer grade reagents (PL range and Photometer tablets). Using RAPID reagents will lead to incorrect results!

Check before each test run that the reagents used have not exceeded their best before date.

Always keep the sampling chamber (where the cuvette is inserted) clean. On the left and right inside of the chamber you will see an opening and behind that a transparent plastic pane. The LED and the sensor are located behind these. Both panes must be dry and clean. Any soiling must be cleaned according to A-3 in these instructions.

The measurement must be performed in a radiation-free environment which is not electromagnetically influenced. Keep mobile phones and radio devices away during sampling.

Some reagents are classified as hazardous materials. These are identified as such on the packaging. In addition you can download safety specifications for the reagents offered by PrimeLab from the website www.primelab.org. Always adhere to the safety instructions on the packaging and in the safety specifications to prevent damages to yourself, the PrimeLab device and the environment.

NEVER touch reagents with your fingers, pour them directly from the container into the water sample!

Always close liquid reagent containers immediately after use. Always ensure uniform drop sizes are used.

Air bubbles on the inside of the cuvette wall will result in incorrect measurements! If there are any bubbles carefully shake the cuvette to release these.

! !

TEST-8

Page 32

TEST-9

Always conduct baseline (zero) measurements with the same cuvette used for the subsequent test. Always make sure that the triangular marking on the cuvette is aligned with the triangle on the front of the sampling chamber on the device. There are always small differences between cuvettes (tolerances due to production).

The device must be acclimatised to the ambient temperature. Great differences between the device temperature and that of the environment can lead to the formation of condensation obstructing the optical system, which in turn will lead to incorrect measurements.

The sampling chamber must be free from water or humidity, otherwise there will be the risk of damage to the electronics inside the device.

Please calibrate your PrimeLab on a regular basis (at least 2 weekly) as described in SET-4 of these instructions to obtain the best possible measurement results.

PrimeLab must remain on a flat surface while testing as otherwise the LED light will not pass correctly through the sample water which will lead to incorrect results.

Note(s)

-> The temperature of your water sample should be between 20°C and 25°C.

-> Fluorides and polyphosphates in the sample water will reduce the

measurement results. So long as no fluoride has been actively added this effect is negligible. Otherwise, the result will be, depending on the fluoride concentration in the water, 0.01 to 0.23 mg/l too low. To take this effect into account the fluoride content in the water must be determined in a separate procedure. Multiply the separately determined fluoride value with 0.4 and then add 1 to this result, which will render the factor by which the measurement result (aluminium) must be multiplied to get the correct value.

Example:

Determined fluoride value = 0.6 mg/l; multiplied with 0.4 = 0.24; plus 1 = 1.24 (= factor). Determined aluminium value = 0.15; multiply with the above factor (1.24) = 0.186 mg/l aluminium concentration.

-> Iron and manganese are eliminated by the reagent tablet and have no influence on the measurement result.

Note(s)

-> If the water sample contains chlorine and bromine both will be detected by

the DPD reagent and shown in the test result. If this is not required, the measurement procedure must be amended as follows: After step 3 add a "DPD Glycine" tablet to the sample liquid. Empty the cuvette except for a few drops into a second clean vial. Add a DPD N° 1 Photometer tablet to the first cuvette, which contains just a few drops and crush it with a clean stirrer. Now fill the sample water with the dissolved glycine tablet from the second cuvette into the first cuvette containing the crushed DPD N° 1 Photometer tablet. Mix the tablet with the liquid until it has dissolved completely. Wait for 2 minutes and then continue with step 6.

-> When preparing the measurement it is important to avoid any bromine escaping, which can happen during pipetting and shaking the sample. The measurement must be performed directly after sampling.

-> It is important that the measurement devices to be used have not been cleaned with household detergent, as this could greatly reduce the measurement. To prevent any contamination the cuvette, the cuvette lid and the stirrer should be stored in a 0.1 g/l sodium hypochlorite solution for one hour and then rinse thoroughly with distilled water.

-> The DPD reagent used in this procedure buffers the pH value of the sample water in a range of 6.2 to 6.5 pH. If your sample water is very alkaline or acidic it must be adjusted to a pH range between 6 and 7 by adding 0.5 mol/l sulphuric acid or respectively 1 mol/l caustic soda.

-> Water samples with parameter levels ´higher´ than the defined range may lead to errors with the DPD chemistry; resulting in an incorrect reading (possibly showing none detected). For measurement of higher bromine values please dilute the water sample prior to testing.

-> If the water sample contains other reducing chemicals (e.g. active oxygen, chlorine etc.) this will also be detected and be included in the result.

-> Water samples with a high calcium content resp. a high conductivity will render the sample cloudy, which is detrimental to the measurement precision. In this case use the "DPD N° 1 High Calcium (HC)".

Note(s)

-> Alkalinity of more than 250 mg/l CaCO affect the measurement and the

color development. Neutralize to pH 6-7 with 1 N Sodium Hydroxide before performing the test.

-> Acidity of more than 150 mg/l CaCO affect the measurement and the color

development. Neutralize to pH 6-7 with 1 N Sodium Hydroxide before performing the test.

-> Other oxidants, such as bromine, chlorine dioxide, ozone, peroxides as well as iodine will interfere with the reagent reaction and will be part of the displayed value.

-> Organic chloramines may interfere. Monochloramines lead to higher readings (~0.1 mg/l at 3 mg/l monochloramines after 1 minute).

-> If oxidized manganese or oxidized chromium is present in the sample, sample needs to be pre-treated.

-> Hardness levels above 1000 mg/l CaCO affect the measurement

-> Extreme pH-values of the sample need to be corrected to pH 6-7 before measuring the sample.
