DESCRIPTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION & INTENDED USE
The HI97106 is a waterproof portable photometer that benefits from Hanna’s
years of experience as a manufacturer of analytical instruments. It is a
compact and versatile device designed to accurately determine chemical oxygen
demand.
The photometer has an advanced optical system that uses a Light Emitting Diode
and a narrow band interference filter for accurate, repeatable readings. The
optical system is sealed from outside dust, dirt, and water.
The meter uses an exclusive positive-locking system to ensure that the vials
are placed into the holder in the same position every time.
With the CAL Check™ functionality, users are able to validate the performance
of the instrument at any time. Hanna Instruments ® CAL Check cuvettes are
certified against NIST‑traceable reference instrument(s). The built-in
tutorial mode guides users step‑by‑step through the measurement process. The
tutorial mode includes all steps required for sample preparation, the required
reagents, and quantities.
Suitable for bench measurements, the photometer features:
- Sophisticated optical system
- Meter validation using certified CAL Check cuvettes
- Tutorial mode guides the user step‑by‑step
- Auto logging
- Waterproof IP67, floating case

PRECISION & ACCURACY
Precision is how closely repeated measurements are to one another, usually
expressed as standard deviation (SD).
Accuracy is defined as the closeness of a test result to the true value and is
method specific.
Although good precision suggests good accuracy, precise results can be
inaccurate.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Absorption of light is a typical phenomenon of interaction between
electromagnetic radiation and matter.
When a light beam crosses a substance, some of the radiation may be absorbed
by atoms, molecules, or crystal lattices. Photometric chemical analysis is
based on specific chemical reactions between a sample and reagent to produce a
light‑absorbing compound.
If pure absorption occurs, the fraction of light absorbed depends both on the
optical path length through the matter and on the physical‑chemical
characteristics of the substance according to the Lambert‑Beer law.
If all other factors are constant, the concentration “c” can be calculated
form the absorbance of the substance.
OPTICAL SYSTEM
The internal reference system (reference detector) of the photometer
compensates for any drifts due to power fluctuations or ambient temperature
changes, providing a stable source of light for the blank (zero) measurement
and sample measurement.
LED light sources offer superior performance compared to tungsten lamps. LEDs
have a much higher luminous efficiency, providing more light while using less
power. They also produce little heat, which could otherwise affect electronic
stability. LEDs are available in a wide array of wavelengths, whereas tungsten
lamps have poor blue/violet light output.
Improved optical filters ensure greater wavelength accuracy and allow a
brighter, stronger signal to be received. The end result is higher measurement
stability and less wavelength error.
A focusing lens collects the light that exits the cuvette, eliminating errors
from cuvette imperfections and scratches, reducing the need to index the
cuvette.
GENERAL OPERATIONS

USING THE 16 mm VIAL ADAPTER
To insert the adapter:
-
Orient the adapter with the two small holes toward the bottom.
The index mark on adapter should align with the index mark on the instrument. -
Press down gently, keeping the marks aligned, until the adapter reaches the bottom of the vial holder.
The meter is ready for use. Always use the adapter for both Zero and Read
measurements as specified in the parameter instructions.
Warning: Improper use of the adapter could cause irreversible damage to
the instrument.
Always use the following precautions while using the 16 mm adapter.
- Never use excessive force to insert the adapter. Users should be able to insert the vial with light pressure using one finger. If the vial does not reach the bottom, if there is resistance, or in case of “Check the Zero cuvette” message during the “Zero” operation, check the aligment of the two index marks, and gently push down the adapter to ensure it reaches the bottom of the vial holder.
- Never insert hot vials or samples into the adapter. Samples should be near room temperature before inserting into the adapter.
VIAL PREPARATION & MIXING
Measure and add correct sample or DI water quantity as specified in the
measurement procedure.
Proper mixing is very important for reproducibility of the measurements. The
proper mixing technique for each method is listed in the method procedure.
Vial inversion is represented here:
For one inversion:
- Hold the vial in vertical position.
- Turn the vial upside‑down and wait for all of the solution to flow to the cap end.
- Return the vial to the upright vertical position.
- Wait for all of the solution to flow to the vial bottom.
MEASUREMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
- Whenever the vial is placed into the measurement holder, it must be dry outside and free of fingerprints, oil, or dirt. Wipe it thoroughly with HI731318 microfiber cleaning cloth or a lint‑free wipe prior to insertion.
- Shaking the vial can generate bubbles in the sample, causing higher readings. To obtain accurate measurements, remove such bubbles by swirling or by gently tapping the vial.
- Do not let the reacted sample stand too long after reagent has been added. For best accuracy, respect the timings described in each method.
- It is possible to take multiple readings in a row, but it is recommended to take a new zero reading for each sample and to use the same vial for zeroing and measurement when possible.
- Discard sample immediately after reading has been taken, or the glass might become permanently stained.
- All reaction times reported in this manual are at 25 °C (77 °F). In general, reaction time should be increased for temperatures lower than 20 °C (68 °F), and decreased for temperatures higher than 25 °C (77 °F).
BATTERY MANAGEMENT
The meter will perform an auto‑diagnostic test when it is powered on. During
this test, the Hanna Instruments ® logo will appear on the LCD. If the
auto‑diagnostic test was successful, the meter is ready for use.
To conserve the battery, the meter turns off automatically after 15 minutes of
inactivity.
If a zero reading has been done but not a Read, auto‑off time is increased to
30 minutes.
The battery icon on the LCD indicates the battery status:
Battery is full.
Battery is below 10 %.
Replace the batteries soon.
Battery is low.
Replace the batteries with new ones.

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
Before using the reagent kit carefully read all the instructions and the
Safety Data Sheets (SDS).
Pay particular attention to all warnings, cautions and notes. Failure to do so
may result in serious injury to the operator.
Reagent Blank Correction: This method requires a reagent blank correction. A
single blank vial may be used more than once. The blank vial is stable for
several months at room temperature. For improved accuracy measurement, run a
blank for each set of measurements and always use the same lot of reagents for
blank and samples.
-
Choose a homogeneous sample. Samples containing solids capable of settling need to be homogenized with a blender.
-
Preheat the Hanna ® Reactor HI839800 to 150 °C (302 °F). Use of the optional HI740217 safety shield is strongly recommended. Do not use an oven or microwave, samples may leak and generate a corrosive and possibly explosive atmosphere.
-
Remove the cap from two COD Ultra High Range Reagent vials.
-
Add 0.1 mL of deionized water to the first vial (#1) and 0.1 mL of sample to the second vial (#2), while keeping the vials at a 45‑degree angle. Replace the caps and invert several times to mix.
Warning: The vials will become hot during mixing, use caution when handling. -
Insert the vials into the reactor and heat them for 2 hours at 150 °C (302 °F).
-
At the end of the digestion period, switch off the reactor. Wait 20 minutes to allow the vials to cool to about 120 °C (248 °F).
-
Invert each vial several times while still warm, then place them in the test tube rack.
Warning: The vials are still hot, use caution when handling. -
Leave the vials in the tube rack to cool to room temperature. Do not shake or invert them, the samples may become turbid.
-
Select COD UHR method using the procedure described in the Range Selection section.
-
Insert the 16 mm vial adapter using the procedure described in the Using the 16 mm Vial Adapter section.
-
Insert the blank vial (#1) into the holder.
-
Press Zero. The display will show ‑0.0‑ when the meter is zeroed and ready for measurement.
-
Remove the vial.
-
Insert the sample vial (#2) into the holder.
-
Press Read to start the reading. The instrument displays the results in g/L of oxygen (O2).
INTERFERENCES
Interference may be caused by:
• Chloride above 20000 mg/L, samples with higher chloride concentration should
be diluted
WARNING & ERROR DESCRIPTIONS
The instrument shows clear warning messages when erroneous conditions appear and when measured values are outside the expected range. The information below provides an explanation of the errors and warnings, and recommended action to be taken.
| There is an excess amount of ambient light reaching the detector. Ensure
that the notch on the cap is positioned securely in the groove before
performing any measurements. If the issue persists, please contact Hanna
Instruments ® technical support.
---|---
| The sample and the zero vials are inverted.
Swap the vials and repeat the measurement.
| There is either too much light or the instrument can not adjust the light
level. Please check the preparation of the zero vial and that the sample does
not contain any debris.
| The meter is either overheating or its temperature has dropped too low to
operate within published accuracy specifications. The meter must be between 0
and 50 °C (32 and 122 °F) to perform any measurements.
| Meter temperature has changed significantly since the zero measurement has
been performed.
The zero measurement must be performed again.
| The measured value is outside the limits of the method. Verify that the
sample does not contain any debris.
Check the sample preparation, the measurement preparation and method range.
| Date and time settings have been lost. Reset the values. If the issue
persists, please contact Hanna Instruments technical support.
