4. Operating Instructions for Free Chlorine Measurement
Follow these steps for accurate free chlorine measurement using the YSI 251401Y DPD Free Chlorine Reagent Powder with a compatible YSI colorimeter.
- Kwadebe SampCell: Rinse a clean sample cell thoroughly with deionized water, then with a small amount of the sample ka a nwale.
- Jupụta SampCell: Jupụta sample cell with 10 ml of the water sample to be analyzed. Ensure the sample volume is precise.
- Add Reagent: Carefully open one YSI 251401Y DPD Free Chlorine Reagent Powder packet. Add the entire contents of the powder packet to the 10 ml sample na cell.
- Ngwakọta: Kpuchie sample cell and invert it gently several times to dissolve the powder completely. Avoid shaking vigorously, which can introduce air bubbles. A pink color will develop if free chlorine is present.
- Oge mmeghachi omume: Allow a reaction time of approximately 1 minute for the color to fully develop. Consult your colorimeter's manual for specific reaction time recommendations.
- tụọ: Insert the prepared sample cell into the YSI pHotoFlex or 900 Chlorine Colorimeter. Follow the instrument's instructions to initiate the measurement. The colorimeter will display the free chlorine concentration in mg/L.
- Record Results: Record the measurement results immediately.
- Hichapụ: After measurement, empty the sample cell and rinse it thoroughly with deionized water.
Mara: For best results, perform measurements promptly after sample collection. The DPD method is sensitive to light and temperature; protect samples and reagents from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
