In READ mode: test sample concentration is below
the measurement range (test specific).
In ZERO mode: sample absorbance (due to a
cloudy or colored sample or a dirty cell) is too high
to zero, the meter will read “LO”.
Excessive stray light detected. Normally this
does not occur, even when testing in sunlight.
Low battery indication.
Corrective Action
Dilute and retest. Dilution Kit available
(Part Number 487200)
Sample value is below measurement
range.
Dilute sample, filter sample, or clean cell.
Testing cannot proceed until a valid ZERO is
acheived.
Place the LIGHT BLOCKING CAP over the CELL
for zeroing and for reading result. Moving
to a shaded area can also fix this problem.
Replace the batteries.
About The Built-In Cell
The built-in CELL is transparent plastic and, when filled to the top, contains 4ml. The sturdy CELL
design will last for over 20,000 readings. Scratches on the CELL will not interfere or compromise
the accuracy of the readings because of its fixed position. For best accuracy, rinse cell with clean
water immediately after a test is completed. Do not use solvents, such as acetone, to clean the
cell. When the CELL becomes stained or cloudy from repeated testing, or when the meter does
not blank when you press the ZERO/ON button, the cell needs to be cleaned. Clean as follows: Fill
cell with clean water and add two drops of Acid-1 or HCl-1. Leave meter undisturbed for 5
minutes. Afterwards, rinse the cell and the meter is ready for use again. Cleaning the cell
regularly will not be necessary if you rinse the CELL immediately after the test.
