PH
6.5 – 8.4
Tablet
Powder
Fill a clean vial (24 mm Ø) with 10 ml of the water sample and
0.0.0
perform zero calibration (see "Operation").
Tablet
Powder
Add one PHENOL RED PHOTOMETER tablet straight from the foil to
the 10 ml water sample and crush the tablet using a clean stirring rod.
Close the vial tightly with the cap and swirl gently several times until
the tablet is dissolved.
Place the vial in the sample chamber making sure that the
are aligned.

Tolerance: ± 0.1 pH
Notes:
1. For photometric determination of pH-values only use PHENOL RED tablets in black
printed foil pack and marked with PHOTOMETER.
2. Water samples with low values of Alkalinity-m (below 35 mg/l CaCO
pH readings.
3. pH-values below 6.5 and above 8.4 can produce results inside the measuring range.
A plausibility test (pH-meter) is recommended.
4. Salt error
For salt concentrations below 2 g/l no significant error, due to the salt concentration of
the reagent tablet, is expected. For higher salt concentrations the measurement values
have to be adjusted as follows:
