MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE:
1• Turn the meter on by pressing
ON/OFF.
2• When the LCD displays “- - -”, the
meter is ready.
3• Add 5 mL of DPD 0
reagent by using a
syringe.
4• Fill the cuvet up to the
10 mL mark with 5 mL
of unreacted sample
using a pipette.
5• Replace the cap and
shake gently for a few
seconds.
6• Reinsert the cuvet into
the holder and ensure
that the notch on the
cap is positioned
securely into the
groove.
7• Press ZERO and “SIP” will blink on the
display.
8• After a few seconds the display will
show “-0.0-”. The meter is now zeroed
and ready for measurement.
9• Remove the cuvet. Open it.
10• For free chlorine measurement:
Add 3 drops of DPD 1 reagent.
Replace the cap and swirl gently.
11• Immediately insert the cuvet into the
holder and ensure that the notch on
the cap is positioned securely into the
groove.
12• Press READ and “SIP”
will blink during
measurement.
13• The instrument directly
displays concentration in
mg/L of chlorine.
14• Then, for total chlorine measurement,
remove the cuvet and add to the
reacted sample 3 drops of DPD 3.
Replace the cap and swirl gently.
15• Reinsert the cuvet into the holder and
ensure that the notch on the cap is
positioned securely into the groove.
16• Wait for 2 minutes and 30 seconds
then press
READ and
“SIP” will blink
during
measurement.
17• The instrument directly displays
concentration in mg/L of total
chlorine.
Interferences
• Bromine (positive error)
• Chlorine dioxide (positive error)
• Iodine (positive error)
• Oxidized Manganese and Chromium
(positive error)
• Ozone (positive error)
• Alkalinity above 250 mg/L CaCO3 or
acidity above 150 mg/L CaCO3 will not
reliable develop the full amount of
color or it may rapidly fade. To resolve
this, neutralize the sample with diluted
HCl or NaOH.

GUIDE TO DISPLAY CODES:
This prompt appears for 1 second each
time the instrument is turned on.
The dashes “- - -”
indicates that the
meter is in a ready
state and zeroing can
be performed.
Sampling In Progress.
Flashing “SIP” prompt
appears each time the
meter is performing a
measurement.
“-0.0-”, the meter is in
a zeroed state and
measurement can be
performed.
The blinking "BAT"
indicates that the
battery voltage is
getting low and the
battery needs to be
replaced.
“-bA-”, the battery is
dead and must be
replaced. Once this
indication is displayed,
the meter will lock up.
Change the battery
and restart the meter.
“Conf”, the meter has
lost its configuration. Contact your dealer
or the nearest Martini Customer Service
Center.
ERROR MESSAGES
On zero reading
• Blinking “-0.0-” indicates that the zeroing
procedure failed due to a low signalto-
noise ratio. In this
case
press ZERO again.
• “no L”, the
instrument can not
adjust the light
level. Please check
that the sample
does not contain
any debris.
• “L Lo”, there is
not enough light to
perform a
measurement.
Please check the
preparation of the
zero cuvet.
• “L Hi”, there is too
much light to
perform a
measurement.
Please check the preparation of the zero
cuvet.
On sample reading
• “-SA-”, there is too
much light for the
sample
measurement.
Please check if the
right sample cuvet is
inserted.
• “Inv”, the sample
and the zero cuvet
are inverted.
• “ZErO”, a zero
reading was not
taken. Follow the instruction in the
measurement procedure for zeroing the
meter.
• Under range. A blinking “0.00” indicates
that the sample
absorbs less light
than the zero
reference.
Check the procedure
and make sure you
use the same cuvet
for reference (zero)
and measurement.
• A flashing value of
the maximum
concentration
indicates an over
range condition.
The concentration of the sample is beyond
the programmed range: dilute the sample
and re-run the test.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Battery replacement must only take place
in a non-hazardous environment.
Simply rotate the battery cover on the back
of the meter.
Detach the
battery from
the terminals
and attach a
fresh 9V
battery while
paying
attention to
the correct
polarity.
Insert the battery and replace the cover.
