Measuring range:

0.03­6.00 mg/L Cl2

Method:

At a pH value of 6.2 to 6.5 in a phosphate buffered system, free chlorine reacts with N,N-diethyl-1,4-phenylene diamine (DPD) and forms a red-violet dye. In order to obtain accurate results the sample must be analyzed immediately after collection and cannot be preserved for later analysis. Bubbles in the sample cell can cause higher chlorine contents and must be avoided. This may require an additional gentle shaking.
