GENERAL DESCRIPTIONGENERAL DESCRIPTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTIONGENERAL DESCRIPTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
C 99 & C 200 Series is a line of 15 different bench, microprocessor-
based photometers that measure up to 46 parameters in water and
wastewater. 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 215 Nutrient Analyses C 216 Swimming Pool Applic.
C 218 Environmental Applic.
All meters use an exclusive positive-locking system to ensure that the cuvet
is in the same position every time it is placed into the measurement cell.
The reagents are in liquid or powder form and are supplied in bottles
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, turning the unit off 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.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATIONPRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATIONPRINCIPLE 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 physico-
chemical characteristics of substance according to the Lambert-Beer
Law:
-log I/Io= ελc d
or
A = ελc d
Where:
-log I/Io=Absorbance (A)
Io=intensity of incident light beam
I=intensity of light beam after absorption
ελ=molar extinction coefficient at wavelength λ
c =molar concentration of the substance
d =optical path through the substance
Therefore, the concentration "c" can be calculated from the absorbance
of the substance as the other factors are known.
Photometric chemical analysis is based on the possibility to develop an
absorbing compound from a specific chemical reaction between sample
and reagents.

The optical system of Hanna's C 99 & C 200 multiparameter
photometers is based on special subminiature tungsten lamps and
narrow-band interference filters to guarantee both high performance
and reliable results.
Four measuring channels (at four different wavelengths) allow a wide
range of tests.
C 200 Block diagram (optical layout)
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 Ioor I.
The photoelectric cell collects the radiation Ithat is not absorbed by
the sample and converts it into an electric current, producing a
potential in the mV range.
The microprocessor uses this potential to convert the incoming value
into the desired measuring unit and to display it on the LCD.
The measurement process is carried out in two phases: first the meter
is zeroed and then the actual measurement is performed.
The cuvet has a very important role because it is an optical element
and thus requires particular attention. It is important that both the
measurement and the calibration (zeroing) cuvets are optically iden-
tical to provide the same measurement conditions. Whenever possible
use the same cuvet for both.
It is also necessary that the surface of the cuvet is clean and not
scratched. This is to avoid measurement interference due to unwanted
reflection and absorption of light. It is recommended not to touch the
cuvet walls with hands.
Furthermore, in order to maintain the same conditions during the
zeroing and the measuring phases, it is necessary to close the cuvet
to prevent any contamination.
Given that the absorption of a compound strictly depends on the
wavelength of the incident light beam, a narrow spectral bandwidth
should be selected as well as a proper central wavelength to optimize
measurements.

prompt appears each time the meter is
performing a measurement.
The microprocessor is adjusting the light

is ready to perform a zero reading. This
flashing prompt will only appear when a

Follow the measurement procedure de-
scribed in the related chapter.

TIPS FOR AN ACCURATE MEASUREMENTTIPS FOR AN ACCURATE MEASUREMENT
TIPS FOR AN ACCURATE MEASUREMENTTIPS FOR AN ACCURATE 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 interfer-
ence, therefore, these should be removed by treatment with active
carbon and by prior filtration.
• For a correct filling of the cuvet: the
liquid in the cuvet forms a convexity
on the top; the bottom of this convex-
ity must be at the same level of the
10 mL mark.
• In order to measure exactly e.g. 0.5 mL of sample or reagent
with the 1 mL syringe, push the plunger completely into the
syringe and insert the tip into the solution. Pull the plunger up
to above the 0.0 mL mark. Take out the syringe and clean the
outside of the syringe tip. Then, adjust the plunger to the 0.0 mL
mark (the lower edge of the seal must be exactly on the 0.0 mL
mark). Be sure that no drops are hanging on the tip of the
syringe, if so eliminate them. Then, keeping the syringe in vertical
position above the cuvet, push the plunger down until the lower
edge of the seal is exactly on the 0.5 mL mark. Now the exact
amount of 0.5 mL has been added to the cuvet, even if the tip
still contains some reagent or sample.
10 mL
• Proper use of the dropper: to get good
reproducible results, tap the dropper on the
table for several times and wipe the outside
of the dropper tip with a cloth. Always keep
the dropper bottle in a vertical position
while dosing the reagent.

11
(a) (b) (c)
• It is important that the sample does not contain any debris. This
would corrupt the readings.
• Do not let the reacted sample stand too long after reagent is
added, or accuracy will be lost.
• 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.
• Whenever the cuvet is placed into
the measurement cell, it must be
dry outside, and completely free of
fingerprints, oil or dirt. Wipe it
thoroughly with HI 731318 or a
lint-free cloth prior to insertion.
• It is possible to take multiple read-
ings in a row, but it is recommended
to take a new zero reading for each sample and to use the same
cuvet for zeroing and measurement.
• It is important to discard the sample immediately after the
reading is taken because the glass might become permanently
stained.
• All the reaction times reported in this manual are referred to 20°C
(68°F). As a general rule of thumb, they should be doubled at
10°C (50°F) and halved at 30°C (86°F).
• Proper use of the powder reagent packet:
(a) use scissors to open the powder packet;
(b) push the edges of the packet to form a spout;
(c) pour out the content of the packet.

Plug the 12VDC adapter (HI 710005 - 110VDC, or HI 710006 -
220VDC) into the DC socket. Plug the adapter into the outlet.
Alternatively, remove the battery cover on the back of the meter;
attach 2 fresh 9V batteries and replace the cover.
Note:Insure the main line is surge protected.
Note: Always turn the meter off before unplugging it to insure no
data is lost.
MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
•Turn the meter on by pressing ON/OFF.
•The meter will first perform an LCD self
diagnostic test by displaying a full set of
figures.
• Then it will show a scrolling "c --- Hanna Inst" message.
•When the LCD displays “----”, the meter is
ready. On the secondary LCD "P1" will
appear to inform that the first parameter
measurement procedure (e.g. in C200, P1
for Aluminum) can be performed.
•Press the PROGRAM Wand PROGRAM Vkeys to select the
desired parameter.
For the program number, see the tables on page 12 or look at
the list printed on the mask of the meter.

display, follow the measurement procedure described in the
related chapter.
•Select a new parameter measurement procedure by pressing the
