Colour Change Yellow → Red
Reaction Principle Pretreatment tube: CH2:CHCN + Cr6+ + H2SO4 → HCN
Detector tube : 2HCN + HgCl2 → 2HCl + Hg(CN)2
HCl + Base → Chloride
Coefficient of Variation 10% (for 5 to 40 ppm), 5% (for 40 to 120 ppm)
Shelf Life 3 Years
Corrections for temperature & humidity Temperature correction is necessary
Store the tubes at cool and dark place.
