Structure:
The kit appears to consist of a blue plastic case with several components:
- Test vials: These are likely transparent vials used to hold water samples for testing.
- Reagents: Bottles containing chemical solutions (OTO and Phenol Red) used for testing chlorine and pH levels, respectively.
- Color comparator: A chart or scale used to compare the color of the water sample after adding reagents to determine the chlorine or pH level.
Specifications:
- Tests: The kit can test for both chlorine (CL) and pH (Hydrogen) levels in pool water.
- Water sample: Water samples should be taken from 18 inches (46 cm) below the surface of the pool.
- Chlorine Test (CL):
- Reagent: OTO (Orthotolidine) solution
- Procedure:
- Fill the test vial with a water sample.
- Add 4 drops of OTO solution.
- Cap and shake the vial.
- Compare the color with the chlorine scale.
- Ideal chlorine level: Between 1.0 and 1.5.
- pH Test (Hydrogen):
- Reagent: Phenol Red solution
- Procedure:
- Fill the test vial with a water sample.
- Add 4 drops of Phenol Red solution.
- Cap and shake the vial.
- Compare the color with the pH scale.
- Ideal pH level: Between 7.2 and 7.6.
