pH Test – directions for use

1. Using the syringe provided, place exactly 5 ml of the water to be tested into the glass vial.

2. Add 3 drops of pH indicator close the vial with the cap and shake for 10 seconds.

3. Remove the cap and move the vial between the designated positions on the color card, look into the vial from above and compare the color in the vial to the colors on the card. Choose the pH level that gives the closest color match and if necessary estimate an intermediate value.

4. The color in the reaction vial will remain stable for 5 minutes. Do not relate to the color in the reaction vial after this time

KH Test – directions for use

Red Sea’s Marine Care KH test kit provide an easy measurement of °KH with a resolution of either 0.5 or 1 °KH as desired

1. Using the syringe provided, place exactly 10 ml of the water to be tested into the glass vial in order to measure °KH levels in 0.5 °KH resolution, or 5 ml of the water to be tested in order to measure °KH levels in 1 °KH resolution.

2. Draw KH indicator into the dropper.

3. Add 1 drop of KH indicator and shake for 10 seconds. The test sample will obtain the titration “start” color as shown on the instruction card.

4. Continue to add KH indicator one drop at a time (shake for 10 seconds after each drop) until the color of the sample in the glass vile changes to the corresponding “end” color as shown on the instruction card. Count the number of drops required to reach the end color.

5. Return any unused indicator to the bottle and ensure that the bottle is closed tightly.

6. Each drop of indicator corresponds to 0.5 °KH (0.18 meq/L) or 1°KH (0.36 meq/L) depends on the water sample volume.

7. If the last drop gave the overdose color instead of the end color reduce the calculated level by 0.25 °KH (0.09 meq/L) for 0.5°KH resolution or 0.5°KH (0.18 meq/L) for 1°KH resolution.

Note: The Alkalinity test kit enables accurate dosing of Red Sea’s KH-Coralline Gro and Foundation™ KH/Alkalinity Buffer Supplements in fish only systems.
