Functional description:

Light High:

There is too much light to perform

a measurement. Please check the preparation of
the zero cuvette.

Light Low:

There is not enough light to perform

a measurement. Please check the preparation of
the zero cuvette.

No Light:

The instrument cannot adjust the

light level. Please check that the sample does
not contain any debris.

Inverted cuvettes:

The sample and the zero

cuvette are inverted.

Zero:

A zero reading was not taken. Follow the

instructions of the measurement procedure for
zeroing the meter.

Under range:

A blinking “200” indicates that

the sample absorbs less light than the zero
reference. Check the procedure and make sure
you use the same cuvette for reference (zero)
and measurement.

Over Range:

A flashing value of the maximum

concentration indicates an over range condition.
The concentration of the sample is beyond the
programmed range: dilute the sample and
re-run the test.

Standard Low:

The standard reading is less

than expected.

Standard High:

The standard reading is higher

than expected.

Errors and warnings:

Measurement procedure:

1• Turn the meter on by pressing ON/OFF.

2• When the beeper sounds briefly and the LCD

displays dashes and “P1” (Low range), “P2”
(Medium range) or “P3” (High range), the
meter is ready. The code that appears on
the secondary display is the one of the last
selected range. If necessary, press RANGE/
GLP/

to change range. The blinking

“ZERO”

indicates that the instrument needs

to be zeroed first.

3• Add 0.5 mL of unreacted sample to the

cuvette. With the plastic dropper fill the
cuvette up to the 10 mL mark adding
HI 93735A

indicator reagent appropriate to

the selected range.

4• Add two drops of HI 93735B buffer reagent.

Replace the cap and shake gently to mix.

5• Place the cuvette into the cuvette holder

and ensure that the notch on the cap is
positioned securely into the groove.

6• Press ZERO/CFM and the lamp, cuvette

and detector icons will appear on the display,
depending on the measurement phase.

7• After a few seconds the display will show “-

0.0-”

. The meter is now zeroed and ready

for measurement. Remove the cuvette.

8• Add the content of 1 packet of HI 93735C

fixing reagent. Replace the cap and shake
gently to mix.

9• Replace the cuvette into the holder and

ensure that the notch on the cap is positioned
securely into the groove.

10•Press READ/ /UNIT. In all cases the lamp,

cuvette and detector icons will appear on
the display, depending on the measurement
phase.
