Introduction

CongratulationsonyourpurchaseoftheCL500chlorinetester.TheCL500isarevolutionaryfirst

ofitskindmeasurementdevicethatmeasuresfreeandtotalChlorinefrom0.00to3.50ppm.

TheelectrodemethodemployedisapprovedbytheU.S.EnvironmentalProtectionAgency(EPA)

asanacceptablemethodforwastewatercompliancemonitoringoftotalchlorine.Forthistype

ofelectrodemethod,areagenttabletmustbeaddedtothemeasurementsolutionbefore

testing.TheadvantagesoftheCL500fortheuserinclude:easytouseandmaintain,high

accuracy,self‐calibration,andfastresponse.Thismeterisshippedfullytestedandcalibrated

and,withproperuse,willprovideyearsofreliableservice.Pleasevisitourwebsite

(www.extech.com)tocheckforthelatestversionofthisUserGuide,ProductUpdates,and

CustomerSupport.

Applications

TheCL500canbeusedwhereverameasurementofthetotalchlorineinwaterasneeded.This

isalsoreferredtoastotalresidualchlorine.Itmeasuresthetotalofallchlorinepresentinall

forms,includingdissolvedfreechlorine,chloramines,hypochlorousacid,andhypochloriteion.

TypicalapplicationsincludeTotalChlorinemeasurementsofdischargewaterfromwater

treatmentplants,publicdrinkingwatersuppliesandcoolingtowers,andfreechlorine

measurementsofthedisinfectantpropertiesinswimmingpoolsandcoolingwater

GettingStarted

EquipmentRequired

Achlorinetestrequiresa10mlsamplebottle,reagentpowderfortestingFreeandTotal

chlorine,andtheCL500meter.

MeasurementProcedure

Calibrationconsiderations

1. Ensurethatthemeterhasbeencalibratedpriortouse.

2. Refertothecalibrationsectionforthisprocedure.



Testsample“Zero”measurement

Note:Priortotesting,setthemetermodetoFREEorTOTALbasedonthedesiredtest

method.SeeModeSelection.

1. ThemetershouldbeintheOFFposition.

2. Placethetestsampleintothesamplebottleuptothe10mLline(minimum).Placethe

caponthebottleandtighten.

3. Cleananddrytheoutsideofthesamplebottletoensureacleansurface.

4. Openthecoverofthetestchamberandinsertthebottlecompletelyintothechamber.

5. Lineupthewhitemarkonthebottlewiththewhitemarkofthetestchamber.

6. Closethecoverandlockitinplace.

7. Pressthe“POWER”buttontoturnthemeterON.Thedisplaywillshow‘Free’or‘Total’

for1secondandthen‘CAL0’.Themeterisnowreadyforthe“zero”test.

8. Pressthe“Zero”button,thedisplaywillflash“tEST”andthen“0.00”ppm.TheZeroTest

isnowcomplete.Donotpowerdownthemeter.

MeasurementofTestSolution

1. Openthetestchamberandremovethetestbottle.

2. AddtherequiredDPDpowder(FreeorTotal)intothesampleandthenshakefor20

secondsuntilcombined.Placethecaponthebottleandtighten.

FortheFreeChlorinetest,usetheFreeChlorineDPDpowder

FortheTotalChlorinetest,usetheTotalChlorineDPDpowder

3. Cleananddrytheoutsideofthesamplebottletoensureacleansurface.

4. Wait2minutebeforeplacingthetestbottleintothemetertoallowtimeforthesolution

tomixthoroughly.

5. Openthecoverofthetestchamberandinsertthebottlecompletelyintothechamber.
