To test pH using a Taylor test kit, you'll typically fill a comparator tube with 44ml of the water sample, add 5 drops of the R-0004 phenol red indicator, cap, and mix by inverting. Then, you'll match the resulting color to the color standards provided in the kit to determine the pH level.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
- 1. Prepare the sample:
Rinse and fill the large comparator tube (usually marked to 44ml) with the water sample you want to test. - 2. Add indicator:
Add 5 drops of the phenol red indicator solution (usually labeled as R-0004) to the sample in the tube. - 3. Mix:
Cap the tube and gently invert it several times to ensure the indicator is well mixed with the water. - 4. Compare colors:
Hold the comparator tube at eye level, preferably against a white background (like the included color standard card) and compare the color of the sample to the color standards provided with your test kit. - 5. Record the result:
Note the pH value that corresponds to the closest color match. If the color falls between two values, the pH is the average of the two. - 6. Adjust if needed:
If the pH is outside the desired range, you may need to adjust it by adding an acid or base demand. Consult your test kit instructions or a pool professional for specific instructions on how to adjust pH and total alkalinity. - 7. Proper Storage:
Store your test kit in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and chemicals, to ensure accurate results and prolong the life of your reagents. - 8. Best Practices:
Avoid using your bare hands when handling the reagents or comparing colors. Consider using a white background or a daylight simulator for color matching.
