OPERATION
DANGER
Handling chemical samples, standards, and reagents can be dangerous. Review the necessary
Material Safety Data Sheets and become familiar with all safety procedures before handling
any chemicals.
DANGER
La manipulation des échantillons chimiques, étalons et réactifs peut être dangereuse. Lire les Fiches
de Données de Sécurité des Produits (FDSP) et se familiariser avec toutes les procédures de sécurité
avant de manipuler tous les produits chimiques.
PELIGRO
La manipulación de muestras químicas, estándares y reactivos puede ser peligrosa. Revise las fichas
de seguridad de materiales y familiarícese con los procedimientos de seguridad antes de manipular
productos químicos.
GEFAHR
Das Arbeiten mit chemischen Proben, Standards und Reagenzien ist mit Gefahren verbunden. Es
wird dem Benutzer dieser Produkte empfohlen, sich vor der Arbeit mit sicheren Verfahrensweisen
und dem richtigen Gebrauch der Chemikalien vertraut zu machen und alle entsprechenden
Materialsicherheitsdatenblätter aufmerksam zu lesen.
PERIGO
A manipulação de amostras, padrões e reagentes químicos pode ser perigosa. Reveja a folha dos
dados de segurança do material e familiarize-se com todos os procedimentos de segurança antes
de manipular quaisquer produtos químicos.
PERICOLO
La manipolazione di campioni, standard e reattivi chimici può essere pericolosa. La preghiamo di
prendere conoscenza delle Schede Techniche necessarie legate alla Sicurezza dei Materiali e di
abituarsi con tutte le procedure di sicurezza prima di manipolare ogni prodotto chimico.

Instrument Cap Cord
The instrument cap for the Pocket Colorimeter™ II doubles as a light shield.
Accurate measurements cannot be obtained unless the sample or blank is covered
with the cap. Use the instrument cap cord to secure the cap to the body of the
colorimeter and prevent loss of the cap. See Figure 1 on page 1—15.
1. Loop the instrument cap cord through the ring on the cap.
2. Remove the battery compartment cover. Press the knotted end of the cord into
the hole indicated by the arrow.
3. Slide the cord into the slot on the battery compartment cover. Snap the cover
into place.

Iron, Total (0.01 to 1.70 mg/L Fe)
Method 8112
For water, wastewater, and seawater
TPTZ Method*
Measuring Hints
Testing generally does not require digestion, however if the sample contains
particulate matter, digestion is required for total iron measurement.**
If samples cannot be analyzed immediately, see Sampling and Storage on
page 1—26.
Wipe sample cells with a soft, dry cloth before placing in the instrument.
After adding TPTZ reagent, a blue color will form if iron is present.
Note:
The Pocket Colorimeter™ II is designed to measure solutions contained in sample cells.
DO NOT
dip the meter in the sample or pour the sample directly into the cell holder.
* Adapted from G. Frederic Smith Chemical Co., 1980, The Iron Reagents, 3rd ed.
** See the Hach Water Analysis Handbook for further information concerning digestions.

Iron, Total, continued
Using Powder Pillows
1.Fill a 10-mL cell to the
10 mL line with sample.
2.Add the contents of one
Iron TPTZ Reagent Powder
Pillow to the cell (the
prepared sample). Cap and
shake for 30 seconds.
3.Wait at least 3 minutes
for full color development
before completing steps 4–
12.
HRS MIN SECHRS MIN SEC

Iron, Total, continued
4.Fill a second sample cell
with 10 mL of sample (the
blank).
5.Press the POWER key to
turn the meter on.
The arrow should indicate
mg/L Fe.
Note:
See page 2—4 for
information on selecting the
correct range channel.
6.Wipe the sample cells
free of liquid or fingerprints.
Any liquid entering the
sample cell compartment
can cause damage to the
instrument.

Iron, Total, continued
7.Place the blank in the
cell holder.
8.Cover the blank with the
instrument cap.
9.Press ZERO/SCROLL.
The display will show
“- - - -” then “0.00”.
Remove the blank from the
cell holder.
