How to use the Colombo pH Test?

General instructions

• Always make sure the test tube is thoroughly clean before use.
• Clean it thoroughly after each use so that it no longer contains any chemical residue that could distort subsequent results.
• Take the water sample as carefully as possible.
• Hold the vial upright when counting drops.
• Make sure there are no air bubbles in the drops.

Test procedure:

1. Take a 5 ml water sample.
2. Add 5 drops of pH test liquid.
3. Shake the test tube.
4. Determine the pH value using the color chart.

To judge the color of the water sample after all the test liquids have been added, proceed as follows: place the test tube on the colorimetric card supplied with the kit and look simultaneously - from above - into the test tube and onto the card. Do not look under direct sunlight, but under indirect light.

Compare the color of the water sample with the colors on the chart. The color that matches best indicates the desired value. The colors of the sample and the chart are not always the same, since the actual values usually lie between two standardized values and therefore correspond to a mixture of two adjacent colors. In this case, it is necessary to judge approximately between which colors the sample actually lies.
