DAILY CONTROL TESTS

Read MSDS before running these tests. Before testing, samples must be cooled to 25 OC (77 OF) by collect- colored or turbid, filter before testing. If the sample remains cloudy after the first filtering, the sample should
ing through a sample cooler for safety and to prevent flashing which concentrates the sample. If the sample is be refiltered through the same filter paper since the filter becomes more retentive on the second filtration.

the meter.
2. Add 2 drops of phenolphthalein indicator to the cooled boiler water sample and stir. If
the sample turns pink, add Gallic Acid while stirring until the pink color disappears. This
neutralizes the sample (Fig. 2).
3. Place the electrode into the sample and take care to ensure that the liquid level is above
its upper steel band. Stir the electrode gently in the sample to create a homogenous MEANS OF ADJUSTMENT DOSAGE INFORMATION

4. Allow time for the reading to stabilize. Note the reading on the display. NORMAL MAINTENANCE BLOWDOWN INCREASE BLOWDOWN FREQUENCY
5. Record the result and refer to chart at right for blowdown adjustment.
Blowdown should be carried out as per boiler manufacturer’s instructions. Blowdown is necessary to
reduce dissolved and suspended solids. If suspended solids are noticed in boiler water samples, blowdown
regardless of conductivity test results. Weekly flash bottom blowdown for 10-20 seconds duration is advisable
to remove normal sludge and to ensure clear operational lines.
