MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
Select the
Molybdenum
method using the procedure described
in the
Method Selection
section (see page 12).
Fill the cuvette with 10 mL of unreacted sample (up to the
mark) and replace the cap.
Place the cuvette into the holder and close the lid.

Press Read to start the reading. The instrument displays the results in
µµ
µµ
µg/L of manganese.
Press s or t to access the second level functions.
Press the Chem Frm key to convert the result in µg/L of potassium permanganate (KMnO
4
) and
permanganate (MnO
4
).
Press s or t to return to the measurement screen.
