will display blinking dashes and the measuring
icon during zero measurement.
At the end of zero measurement the “-0.0-” is

COLORIMETER CALIBRATION
The
HI 93414
free and total chlorine colorimeter has a powerful CAL CHECK function that allows the
user to check the instrument calibration against a NIST traceable standard before making a set of
measurements. With the same standard, the instrument could be re-calibrated, if necessary.
Note:
Free and total chlorine must be calibrated separately. Calibration of one range will not
calibrate the other range.
VALIDATION PROCEDURE
Warning:
Do not validate or calibrate the instrument with standard solutions other than Hanna CAL
CHECK™ Standards, otherwise erroneous results will be obtained. For accurate validation
and calibration please perform test at room temperature, 18 to 25ºC (64.5 to 77.0ºF).
