SA LIN ITY TEST
1. Fill test tube (0778) to 10 mL line with deionized water.
2. Fill the Direct Reading Titrator, 0-1 Range (0376) with sample water.
Wipe any excess sample water from the tip.
3. Dispense 0.5 mL of the sample water into the test tube by slowly
pressing the plunger until the tip of the plunger is opposite the 0.5
mark. Discard the remaining water in the Titrator.
4. Add 3 drops of *Salinity Indicator Reagent A (7460) to the test tube.
Cap and gently swirl to mix the contents.
5. Fill the Direct Reading Titrator, 0-20 Range (0378) with *Salinity
Titration Reagent B (7461). Insert into the center hole of the test tube
cap.
6. While gently swirling the test tube, slowly press the plunger to titrate
until the color of the solution changes from yellow to pink-brown.
Read the test result directly from the scale where the large ring on the
Titrator meets the Titrator barrel. Record as ppt salinity. Each minor
division equals 0.4.
EXAMPLE:
Plunger tip is 3 minor divisions below line 10. The test
result is 10 plus (3 divisions x 0.4) equals 11.2 ppt.
