This document is an instruction manual for a product, which introduces the correct use of a test kit produced by Hanna. The test kit is used to measure the manganese content in water. Manganese is a fertilizer additive and alloy component, and it is not considered toxic but limited in drinking water. The test kit includes various reagents, mirror, glass vials, etc.
This document is an instruction manual for the Hanna Instruments HI 38042 Manganese Low Range Test Kit. The kit includes reagents (Citrate Buffer and Sodium Periodate), glass vials, a plastic pipette, and a checker disc with mirrors for color comparison. It is designed to measure manganese concentrations in water samples ranging from 0 to 3.0 mg/L using a colorimetric method.
| Range | 0 to 3.0 mg/L (ppm) as Mn |
|---|---|
| Smallest Increment | 0.2 mg/L (ppm) Mn |
| Analysis Method | Colorimetric |
| Sample Size | 20 mL |
| Number of Tests | 100 |
The kit measures manganese concentrations from 0 to 3.0 mg/L (ppm).
Read the value in the result window on the checker disc and divide it by 3 to obtain mg/L.
High levels of calcium (>700 ppm), magnesium (>10,000 ppm), chloride (>7,000 ppm), and iron (>5 ppm) can interfere.
