TEST KIT CONTENTS: A kit contains 30 test ampoules, 1 sample cup and 1 color standard chart. When the 30 tests have been used, no replacement components are required, just order a new kit.
TEST KIT OPERATION STEPS:
  1. Using the water to be tested, rinse the Sample/Snapping Cup 3 times and then fill with aqueous sample.

  2. Place an IME.Test™ Ampoule tip down into one of the holes in the bottom of the filled Sample/Snapping Cup and pull back on the top to break the ampoule tip (see Step 1 on the other side of this sheet). The IME.Test™ Ampoule will automatically fill with the aqueous sample.

  3. Gently rock the filled IME.TestTM Ampoule back and forth for 30 seconds (longer if the sample is cold water) to mix the test reagent. After mixing, place IME.Test™ Ampoule in a 86 to 95 (F) degree environment (I/A 2000, warm room or radiator). Periodically compare the ampoule color to the color card to determine end of test and test results. Or, select a control limit and look once at the IME.Test™ Ampoule.

WHAT IF: The Sample color is BLUE at the test start? - The sample water has a high Dissolved Oxygen level. The initial sample color is not Blue or Green at the start? - The sample has a color to it or if clear, the sample is anaerobic at the start of test.

USING as SAMPLER
: If the IME.TestTM Ampoule is kept at a cool temperature, Biological growth will be delayed until the sample is brought to a proper incubation temperature. This feature can be used to take a sample at site and forward a proper sample to a lab. Or, if an abnormal field result is observed, the IME.TestTM Ampoule contents can be used for additional analysis (Biological or Chemical).
