Chemical exposure hazard. Obey laboratory safety procedures and wear all of the personal protective
equipment appropriate to the chemicals that are handled. Refer to the current safety data sheets
(MSDS/SDS) for safety protocols.
The colorimeter measuring cell can collect sediment or cause layers to grow on the inside walls.
Clean the cell with an acid solution and a cotton swab on a monthly basis.
Items to collect:
• Sulfuric acid standard solution, 19.2 N, 100 mL MDB
• Wooden or paper cotton-tipped swab
• Bent steel paper clip
• Stir bar (optional)
1. Remove the plug from the top port of the colorimeter. Refer to Figure 13 on page 16.
2. Remove the magnetic stir bar with a bent steel paper clip as a retrieval tool.
3. Use the pipette to add 2–3 drops of 19.2 N sulfuric acid standard solution in the colorimeter.
Note: Lower normality sulfuric acid is not sufficient to clean the colorimeter.
4. Let the sulfuric acid stay in the colorimeter for 15 minutes.
5. Use a wooden or cotton-tipped swab to clean the interior surfaces of the colorimeter cell. Move
the cotton-tipped swap gently up and down.
Note: Do not use a plastic swab to clean the colorimeter with sulfuric acid. The acid will dissolve the plastic.
