experienced. This valuable information will enable the service department to

make the required repairs more efciently.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

Before attempting to set up or operate this instrument it is important to read the

instruction manual. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or damage to

the equipment.

The COD3 Plus Colorimeter should not be stored or used in a wet or corrosive

environment. Care should be taken to prevent water or reagent chemicals from

wet colorimeter tubes from entering the colorimeter chamber.

NEVER PUT WET TUBES IN COLORIMETER.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Read the labels on all LaMotte reagent containers prior to use. Some containers

include precautionary notices and rst aid information. Certain reagents are

considered hazardous substances and are designated with a * in the instruction

manual. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) can be found at www.lamotte.

com. Read the MSDS before using these reagents. Additional emergency

information for all LaMotte reagents is available 24 hours a day from the Poison

Control Center listed in the front of the phone book or by contacting the 24

hour emergency line for ChemTel 1-800-255-3924 (USA, Canada, Puerto Rico);

locations outside the North American Continent 813-248-0585 (call collect). Be

prepared to supply the name and four-digit LaMotte code number found on the

container label or at the top of the MSDS or in the contents list of the procedure.

LaMotte reagents are registered with a computerized poison control information

system available to all local poison control centers.

Keep equipment and reagent chemicals out of the reach of young children.

STATISTICAL & TECHNICAL DEFINITIONS RELATED TO PRODUCT

SPECIFICATIONS

Method Detection Limit (MDL): “The method detection limit (MDL) is dened

as the minimum concentration of a substance that can be measured and

reported with 99% condence that the analyte concentration is greater than zero

and is determined from analysis of a sample in a given matrix containing the

analyte.”1Note that, “As Dr. William Horwitz once stated, ‘In almost all cases when

dealing with a limit of detection or limit of determination, the primary purpose of

determining that limit is to stay away from it.’”2

Accuracy: Accuracy is the nearness of a measurement to the accepted or true

value.3The accuracy can be expressed as a range, about the true value, in

which a measurement occurs (i.e. ±0.5 ppm). It can also be expressed as the

% recovery of a known amount of analyte in a determination of the analyte (i.e.

103.5 %).

Resolution: Resolution is the smallest discernible difference between any

two measurements that can be made.4For meters this is usually how many

decimal places are displayed. (i.e. 0.01). Note that the resolution many change

with concentration or range. In some cases the resolution may be less than the

smallest interval, if it is possible to make a reading that falls between calibration

marks. A word of caution, that resolution has very little relationship to accuracy or

precision. The resolution will always be less than the accuracy or precision but it

is not a statistical measure of how well a method of analysis works. The resolution

can be very, very good and the accuracy and precision can be very bad! This is

not a useful measure of the performance of a test method.

Repeatability: Repeatability is the within-run precision.5A run is a single data

set, from set up to clean up. Generally, one run occurs on one day. However, for

meter calibrations, a single calibration is considered a single run or data set, even

though it may take 2 or 3 days.

Reproducibility: Reproducibility is the between-run precision.6

Detection Limit (DL): The detection limit (DL) for the 2020we/wi

is dened as the minimum value or concentration that can be determined by the

meter, which is greater than zero, independent of matrix, glassware, and other

sample handling sources of error. It is the detection limit for the optical system of

the meter.
