Instruction Manual MA887 Refractometer for Seawater Measurements
Sodium Chloride solutions can be used to check the accuracy of the meter. The table below
lists two Sodium Chloride solutions and their expected ppt Seawater value.
To make a Standard NaCl Solution (g/100 g) follow the procedure below:
•
Place container (such as a glass vial or dropper bottle that has a cover) on an analytical
balance.
•
Tare the balance.
•
To make an X NaCl solution weigh out X grams of high purity dried Sodium Chloride
(CAS #: 7647-14-5; MW 58.44) directly into the container.
•
Add distilled or deionized water to the container so the total weight of the solution is 100 g.
MAKING A STANDARD SODIUM CHLORIDE SOLUTION
To change the temperature measurement unit from Celsius to Fahrenheit (or vice versa),
follow this procedure.
1. Press and hold the
ON/OFF
key continuously for approximately 8 seconds. The
LCD will display the “all segment” screen followed by a screen with the model
number on the primary display and the version number on the secondary display.
Continue pressing the
ON/OFF
key.
2. While continuing to hold the
ON/OFF
key, press the
ZERO
key. The temperature
unit will change from °C to °F or vice versa.
