MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
• Select the
Dissolved
Oxygen
method using the procedure described in the
Method Selection
section (see page 12).
• Fill one 60 mL glass bottle completely with the unreacted sample.
• Replace the cap and ensure that a small part of the sample spills over.
• Remove the cap and add 5 drops of HI 93732A-0 and 5 drops of
HI 93732B-0.
• Add more sample, to fill the bottle completely. Replace the cap again
and ensure that a part of the sample spills over. This is to make sure
that no air bubbles have been trapped inside, which could alter the
reading.
• Invert several times the bottle. The sample becomes orange-yellow and a
flocculent agent will appear.

DISSOLVED OXYGEN
• 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 mg/L
of nitrite.
• Press the or to access the second level of functions.
• Press the Chem Frm functional key to convert the result in mg/L of nitrogen-nitrite (NO
2
–
-N) and sodium
nitrite (NaNO
2
).
• Press the or to go back to the measurement screen.
INTERFERENCES
Interference may be caused by the following ions:
ferrous, ferric, cupric, mercurous, silver, antimonious, bismuth, auric, lead, metavanadate and chloroplatinate.
Strongly reducing and oxidizing reagents.
High levels of nitrate (above 100 mg/L) could yield falsely high readings due to a minute amount of
reduction to nitrite that could occur at these levels.
