Dear Customer,
Thank you for choosing a Hanna product. This manual will provide you
with the necessary information for the correct use of the instrument. Please
read it carefully before using the meter. If you need additional technical
information, do not hesitate to e-mail us at [email protected]. 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 “0.00” 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, the meter is ready.
The blinking “ZERO” indicates that the
instrument needs to be zeroed first.
3• Fill a graduated beaker with 50 mL of
sample.
4• Add the content of one packet of
HI 96712A-0 Aluminum Reagent A and
mix until dissolution is complete.
5• In the same beaker add the content of
one packet of HI 96712B-0 Aluminum
Reagent B and mix until dissolution is
complete. This is the sample.
6• Fill two cuvettes with 10 mL of sample
each.
7• Add the content of one packet of
HI 96712C-0 Aluminum Reagent C to
only one of the two cuvettes. Replace the
cap and shake gently. This is the blank.
8• Place the blank into the holder and ensure
that the notch on the cap is positioned
securely into the groove.
9• Press and hold READ/ /TIMER for three
seconds. The display will show the
countdown prior to measurement. The
beeper is playing a beep at the end of
countdown period. Alternatively, wait for
15 minutes and press ZERO/CFM directly.
In both cases the lamp, cuvette and
detector icons will appear on the display,
depending on the measurement phase.
10•After a few seconds the display will show
“-0.0-” . The meter is now zeroed and
ready for measurement.
11•Remove the blank and insert the other
