These multipurpose meters are manufactured to measure the most important parameters of the application they have been especially designed for: C 99 Laboratories, with COD C 200 Laboratories C 203 Aquaculture C 205 Boilers & Cooling Towers C 206 Environmental Testing C 207 Industrial Wastewater C 208 Water Conditioning C 209 Education C 210 Pulp & Paper Mills C 211 Chemical Manufacturers C 212 Power Plant Utilities C 213 Municipal Wastewater C 214 Wastewater Treatment Applic. C 215 Nutrient Analyses C 216 Pool & Spa Applic. C 218 Environmental Applic. C 226 Pool & Spa Applic. The reagents are in liquid or powder form and are supplied in bottles and ready-to-use vials or in packets. The amount of reagent is precisely dosed to ensure the maximum repeatability. Display codes aid the user in routine operations. The meters have an auto-shut off feature that will turn off the instrument after 10 minutes of non-use. The C 99 & C 200 Series can be connected to a personal computer via the HI 920010 three wire RS 232 cable. The HI 92000 Hanna Windows Compatible Software aids the user to manage all test data. ® ACCESSORIES REAGENT SETS HI 93701-01 HI 93701-03 HI 93711-01 HI 93711-03 HI 93754A-25 HI 93754B-25 HI 93754C-25 HI 93758A-50 HI 93758B-50 HI 93758C-50 HI 93763A-50 HI 93763B-50 HI 93764A-25 HI 93764B-25 HI 93766-50 HI 93767A-50 HI 93767B-50 100 free chlorine tests 300 free chlorine tests 100 total chlorine tests 300 total chlorine tests 25 COD LR tests 25 COD MR tests 25 COD HR tests 50 reactive phosphorus tests 50 acid hydrolyzable phosphorus tests 50 total phosphorus tests 50 reactive phosphorus HR tests 50 total phosphorus HR tests 25 ammonia LR tests 25 ammonia HR tests 50 nitrate tests 50 total nitrogen LR tests 50 total nitrogen HR tests OTHER ACCESSORIES C115-00300 5 mL graduated syringe C9800-01 Hanna Reactor (115 VAC) C9800-02 Hanna Reactor (230 VAC) HI 710005 110VAC to 12VDC voltage adapter HI 710006 220VAC to 12VDC voltage adapter HI 721310 9V battery (10 pcs) HI 731311 glass vials with cap (5 pcs) HI 731318 Tissue for wiping cuvets (4 pcs) HI 731340 200 µL automatic pipette HI 731341 1000 µL automatic pipette HI 731342 2000 µL automatic pipette HI 731350 tips for 200 µL automatic pipette (25 pcs) HI 731351 tips for 1000 µL automatic pipette (25 pcs) HI 731352 tips for 2000 µL automatic pipette (4 pcs) HI 740142 1 mL graduated syringe HI 740143 1 mL graduated syringe (6 pcs) HI 740144 Pipette tip (6 pcs) HI 740157 Plastic refilling pipette (20 pcs) HI 740216 Test tube cooling rack (25 holes) HI 740217 Laboratory bench safety shield HI 92000 Windows Compatible Software HI 920010 PC connection cable HI 93703-50 Cuvets cleaning solution (230 mL) ® 4 77 STANDARD METHODS Description Ammonia LR Ammonia HR Chlorine, Free Chlorine, Total Nitrate Nitrogen, Total Nitrogen, Total HR COD LR COD MR COD HR Phosphorus, Reactive Phosphorus, Acid Hydrolyzable Phosphorus, Total Phosphorus, Reactive HR Phosphorus, Total HR SPECIFICATIONS Light Life Light Detector Environment Life of the instrument Silicon Photocell 0 to 50°C (32 to 122°F); max 90% RH non-condensing Power Supply 2 x 9 V batteries / 12 to 20 VDC through voltage adapter Auto-Shut off After 10' of non-use Dimensions 230 x 165 x 70 mm (9.0 x 6.5 x 2.8") Weight 640 g (22.6 oz.)

To prolong battery life, switch your meter off after use. However, the meter has an auto-shut off feature that will turn itself off after 10 minutes of non-use. A blinking "LOBAT" on the display, while a measurement is in progress, indicates low voltage and the batteries should be replaced. If the batteries are not replaced immediately, in order to prevent erroneous readings due to low voltage, "-BA-" is displayed soon afterwards. At this point the batteries must be changed. Battery replacement must only take place in a non-hazardous area using two 9V alkaline batteries. Remove the battery cover on the back of photometer, attach two fresh 9V batteries, while paying attention to the correct polarity, and replace the cover. The meter will turn on automatically when a new battery is connected. You can turn it off by pressing ON/OFF. PRECISION AND ACCURACY Precision is how closely repeated measurements agree with each other. Precision is usually expressed as standard deviation (SD). Accuracy is defined as the nearness of a test result to the true value. Although good precision suggests good accuracy, precise results can be inaccurate. The figure explains these definitions. For each parameter, the precision is expressed in the related measurement section as standard deviation at a specific concentration value of the analite. The standard deviation is obtained with a single instrument using a representative lot of reagents. 76 5 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION Absorption of Light is a typical phenomenon of interaction between electromagnetic radiation and matter. When a light beam crosses a substance, some of the radiation may be absorbed by atoms, molecules or crystal lattices. If pure absorption occurs, the fraction of light absorbed depends both on the optical path length through the matter and on the physicalchemical characteristics of substance according to the Lambert-Beer Law: c d -log or A c d I I / o Where: -logI =Absorbance (A) =intensity of incident light beam =intensity of light beam after absorption =molar extinction coefficient at ...
