Performance  
Measuring Range
0.1 to 0.2 ppm 0.2 to 6.0 ppm 6.0 to 18.0 ppm
Number of Pump Strokes
4 2 1
Correction Factor
1/2 1 3
Sampling Time 3 minutes per pump stroke
Detecting Limit 0.05 ppm (n=4)
Colour Change Yellow → Pink
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 0.25 to 1 ppm), 5% (for 1 to 6 ppm)
Shelf Life 3 Years
Corrections for temperature & humidity Unnecessary
Store the tubes at cool and dark place.
