Instructions
Directions for Nitrate Pro Test Kit
1. Using the syringe provided, place exactly 16 ml of the water to be tested into both of the glass vials.
2. Insert one of the vials (control vial) into the outer hole of the comparator.
3. Vigorously shake the bottle of Nitrate Pro Reagent A for 30 seconds and add 8 drops to the second vial (reaction vial). Close the vial with the cap and shake for 15 seconds.
4. Add 5 drops of Nitrate Pro Reagent B, close the vial with the cap and shake for 15 seconds.
5. Add 5 drops of Nitrate Pro Reagent C, close the vial with the cap and mix gently for 15 seconds.
6. Remove the cap from the reaction vial and insert the vial into the center hole of the comparator.
7. Wait 9 minutes for the color in the reaction vial to stabilize at the end point.
8. When the end point of the test reaction has been reached look into both vials from above and rotate the color disc until the closest color match possible is achieved between the vials. Note: Turbidity or severe coloration of the water sample (high organic load) may distort the colors.
9. The nitrate level corresponding to the color selected is printed on the color disc as indicated by the pointer on the side of the comparator body. If necessary, estimate an intermediate value.
10. The color in the reaction vial will remain stable for 5 minutes. Do not relate to the color in the reaction vial after this time.
High Range: For levels of nitrate above 4ppm dilute 1ml of the water to be tested with 15ml of RO water.
