Ammonia Marine Test Kit Red Sea

Ammonia Test - Instructions for use

1. Using the supplied syringe, inject exactly 5 ml of water to be tested in the glass panel.

2. Add a leveled ammonia reagent to doser to, close the ampoule with the cap and shake for 10 seconds.

3. Add 5 drops of AMMONIA REAGENT B, close the ampoule with the cap and shake for 10 seconds.

4. Add 5 drops of AMMONIA REAGENT C, close the ampoule with the cap and shake for 10 seconds.

5. Wait 15 minutes until color stabilization in the ampoule.

6. Once the test is finished, move the ampoule into the designated positions on the colored paper, look into the ampoule from above and

Compare the color with those of the card. Choose the ammonia level that corresponds to the most similar color and if necessary estimate an intermediate value.

7. The color in the reaction ampoule will remain stable for 5 minutes. Do not consider the color in the epolla spent this time lapse.

Example:

1. Total ammonia level of 1 ppm, pH of 8.4 and temperature of 26 degrees Celsius.

2. The table provides 14% toxic ammonia (see table gray area).

3. The toxic ammonia level is 14% of 1 ppm = 0.14 ppm. This level is toxic to fish.
