PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The HI 93735 meter measures the total hardness in drink-
ing, surface and wastewater.
The meter uses an exclusive positive-locking system to ensure

that the cuvet is in the same place every time it is placed

into the measurement cell.
The reagents are in liquid and powder form and are

supplied in bottles and in packets. The amount of reagent

is precisely dosed to ensure maximum repeatability.
Display codes aid the user in routine operations.
The meters have an auto-shut off feature that will turn the

instrument off after 10 minutes of non-use.

This indicates that the meter is in a
ready state and zeroing can be per-
formed.
Sampling in Progress. This prompt ap-
pears each time the meter is performing
a measurement.
This indicates that the meter is in a
zeroed state and measurement can be
performed.
Under range. A flashing value lower
than the minimum concentration read-
able (see specifications) 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.
Over range. A flashing value higher than
the maximum concentration readable (see
specifications) indicates that the sample
absorbs too much light, meaning that
the concentration is too high. Dilute the
sample.
Light over range. The cuvet is not in-
serted correctly and an excess ambient
light is reaching the detector. If the cover
is properly installed, then contact your
dealer or the nearest Hanna Customer
Service Center.
Light under range. The zero sample is
too dark for proper zeroing. If this is not
the case, contact your dealer or the
nearest Hanna Customer Service Center.
The "LOW BATTERY" indicates that the
battery voltage is getting low and the
battery needs to be replaced.
