How To Measure Sulfide Using the CHEMetrics K-9510 Test Kit

Fill the sample cup to the 25 mL mark with the sample to be tested. Add three (3) drops of A-9500 Activator Solution and immediately place the ampoule into the sample cup tip first, then stir and snap the tip. Wait five minutes, then obtain the test result. During that period, you’ll want to dry the ampoule, then invert it several times so the bubble travels end to end to aid in the mixing process. For ampoules that show a darker color, you’ll want to use the kit’s higher range flat comparator. In a well-lit area, place the ampoule between the various color standards until the best color match is found. For ampoules that show a lighter color, use the low range or round comparator. Place the ampoule into the comparator flat end first, then hold it up to a source of light and view from the bottom. Rotate the comparator until you find the best color match.
