NOTE
If the chloride titrant bottle is full enough to cover the tip of the dropper, and if the bottle has
been stored in the upright position, then the tip will have been soaking during storage and this
test procedure can be started without waiting.
(2)
Collect the water sample by filling the plastic measuring test tube(2) to the brim. Pour the sample into the
mixing bottle(4).

or dry chemical to extinguish.
(3)
Open one Chloride 2 indicator powder pillow(3). Add it to the water sample in the mixing bottle(4). Swirl to
mix.
(4)
Add the chloride titrant(l) drop by drop. Hold dropper vertical. Shake well after each drop. Count the
drops until the color of the solution changes to red-brown or orange. If the solution turns yellow and the
precipitant that forms is orange, more shaking was needed during the test. Repeat test starting at step (2).
f.
Interpretation of Results:
(1)
Multiply the number of drops of chloride titrant required times 500 to get the mg/liter of chloride present in
the test sample.
(2)
Multiply the number of drops of chloride titrant required times 825 to get the mg/liter of sodium chloride
present in the test sample.
