Page 5: Significance Of Pool And Spa
SIGNIFICANCE OF POOL AND SPA TESTING A major family leisure pursuit is the enjoyment of Swimming Pool and Spa facilities world-wide. A basic necessity of Pool water treatment, to ensure such enjoyment, is to maintain the water in a safe and pleasant condition for the bathers. - Page 6 between the hypochlorous acid (HOCl) and the hypochlorite ions (OCl Although both forms are considered free chlorine, it is the hypochlorous acid that provides the strongest disinfecting and oxidising characteristic of chlorine solutions. The amount of hypochlorous acid in chlorinated water dependends upon the pH value of the solution.
- Page 7 frequently large amounts of pool water. In general its application is found just before water passes through the filter units. Its sanitizing power is not pH related. Mainly because of its strong oxidizing power the return water may contain only trace concentrations of ozone. It has to be mentioned that ozone is very unstable and there is anyway the need for low-level chlorination to ensure sanitizing throughout the whole pool.
- Page 8 rate increases. If the alkalinity values are sufficiently high it will not be difficult to control the pH. Most pools managers do prefer to keep the pH between 7.2 and 7.4, that does ensure low corrosion rates and a sufficient activity of chlorine.

Page 11: Principle Of Operation
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 physical- chemical characteristics of substance according to the Lambert-Beer Law:... - Page 12 A microprocessor controlled special tungsten lamp emits radiation which is first optically conditioned and beamed to the sample contained in the cuvet. The optical path is fixed by the diameter of the cuvet. Then the light is spectrally filtered to a narrow spectral bandwidth, to obtain a light beam of intensity I or I.

GUIDE TO DISPLAY CODES Note: The secondary LCD below shows a generic "P– –", whereas the meter will indicate the exact program number (e.g. in C 216, "P1" for Alkalinity). This indicates that the meter is in a ready state and zeroing can be performed. Sampling in progress. - Page 15 The lamp is not working properly. Contact your dealer or the nearest Hanna Customer Service Center. The lamp is not working properly. Contact your dealer or the nearest Hanna Customer Service Center. This indicates that the meter has lost its configuration.

Page 17: Measurement
TIPS FOR AN ACCURATE MEASUREMENT The instructions listed below should be carefully followed during testing to ensure best accuracy. • Color or suspended matter in large amounts may cause interference, therefore, these should be removed by treatment with active carbon and by prior filtration. •... - Page 18 • In order to avoid reagent leaking and to obtain more accurate measurements, it is recommended to close the cuvet first with the supplied HDPE plastic stopper and then with the black cap. • Each time the cuvet is used, the cap must be tightened to the same degree.
