38Measurement of Disinfectants• Free Residual Chlorine– Red color formation with DPD and buffer– Reaction time of 3 – 5 sec– According ISO 7393-2 / EPA 334.0– Other methods are acceptable (i.e. amperometric principle) aslong as they are calibrated against above mentioned DPDmethod.• Total Chlorine 1– Additional Potassium Iodide (KI) is added to the buffer.– Red color formation with DPD– Reaction time of 3-5 sec• Total Chlorine 2– Red color formation with DPD, buffer and KI– Reaction time of 120 seconds!Disinfection

39Measuring Process1. Zero measurement: Measurement of sample backgroundto compensate for light absorption effects (turbidity, samplecolor) not related to red DPD color2. Free residual chlorine (FRC) measurementSample + Buffer+DPD dosing, immediate reaction3. Total Residual chlorine 1 (TC 1) measurementSample + Buffer+DPD+KI dosing, immediate reaction-> Calculation of monochloramine content4. Total Residual chlorine 2 (TC 2) measurement:Sample + Buffer+DPD+KI plus 2 minutes to completereaction->Calculations:Combined Chlorine contentDisinfection
