• Reinsert the cuvette into the instrument.
• Press TIMER and the display will show the countdown prior to the
measurement or, alternatively, wait for 6 minutes and press
READ. When the timer ends the meter will perform the reading.
The instrument displays concentration in µg/L of chromium VI.

INTERFERENCES
Interference may be caused by:
Vanadium above 1 ppm. However, waiting 10 minutes before reading, the interference is removed.
Iron above 1 ppm
Mercurous and mercuric ions cause slight inhibition of the reaction.
Chromium VI LR
Chromium VI LR
CHROMIUM VI LOW RANGE
SPECIFICATIONS
Range 0 to 300 µg/L
Resolution 1 µg/L
Accuracy ±1 µg/L ±4% of reading
Typical EMC ±1 µg/L
Deviation
Light Source Tungsten lamp with narrow band interference filter @ 525 nm
Method Adaptation of the
ASTM Manual of Water and Environmental Technology, D1687-92
,
Diphenylcarbohydrazide method. The reaction between chromium VI and the reagent
causes a purple tint in the sample.

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
• Select the
Chromium VI LR
method using the procedure described in
the
Method Selection
section (see page 12).
• Fill the cuvette up to the mark with 10 mL of unreacted sample
and replace the cap.
• Place the cuvette into the holder and close the lid.
• Press ZERO key. The meter will show “-0.0-” when the meter is
zeroed and ready for measurement.
• Remove the cuvette and add the content of one packet of
HI 93749-0 reagent. Replace the cap and shake vigorously
for about 10 seconds.
