Overview: The Hanna Instruments HI83306 Environmental Analysis Photometer is a compact, benchtop instrument designed for comprehensive water quality monitoring. It offers 23 distinct methods to measure 16 key environmental parameters, including critical nutrients like nitrates and phosphates, and dissolved oxygen. Its advanced optical system, featuring precision LEDs, narrow band interference filters, and a focusing lens, combined with both an absorbance photodetector and a reference detector, ensures consistently accurate and repeatable photometric measurements.

This versatile photometer is engineered to address the most common challenges in environmental water quality. Precise measurement of parameters like nitrates and phosphates is vital for managing nutrient pollution in agricultural runoff, which can lead to harmful algal blooms and negatively impact aquatic ecosystems. Similarly, accurate dissolved oxygen levels are essential for sustaining healthy aquatic life and microbial processes within water bodies.

Beyond its photometric capabilities, the HI83306 doubles as a professional pH meter through its digital pH electrode input. This innovative feature allows the pH electrode to store its own calibration data, enabling seamless "hot-swapping" without the need for frequent recalibrations and providing automatic temperature compensation for superior accuracy. Additionally, an integrated absorbance measuring mode supports CAL Check™ validation and allows users to develop custom concentration curves across multiple wavelengths (420 nm, 525 nm, 575 nm, and 610 nm), making it ideal for custom chemistry or educational applications.

Equipped with dual USB ports, the HI83306 facilitates effortless data transfer to flash drives or computers, exporting readings as .CSV files. For enhanced portability and field use, the meter also operates on an internal 3.7 VDC rechargeable Lithium-polymer battery, offering reliable performance for both laboratory and on-site environmental analysis.

Note: Reagents are not included with the meter.

IDEAL APPLICATIONS: Environmental Water Quality Monitoring, Wastewater Treatment, Drinking Water Analysis, Aquatic Ecosystem Health, Agricultural Runoff Analysis, Research & Education.

Advanced Optical System

Innovative Design

HI83306 is designed with an innovative optical system that incorporates a beam splitter so that light can be used for absorbance readings and for a reference detector. The reference detector monitors the intensity of light and modulates when there is drift due to power fluctuation or the heating of the optical components. Each part has an important role in providing unparalleled performance from a photometer.

High Efficiency LED Light Source

An LED light source offers superior performance as compared to a tungsten lamp. LEDs have a much higher luminous efficiency, providing more light while using less power. They also produce very little heat, which could otherwise affect the optical components an electronic stability. LEDs are available in a wide array of wavelengths, whereas tungsten lamps are supposed to be white light (all wavelengths of visible light) but actually have a poor blue/violet light output.

High Quality Narrow Band Interference Filters

The narrow band interference filter not only ensure greater wavelength accuracy (+/- 1 nm) but are extremely efficient. The filters used allow up to 95% of the light from the LED to be transmitted as compared to other filters that are only 75% efficient. The higher efficiency allows for a brighter, stronger light source. The end result is higher measurement stability and less wavelength error.

Reference Detector for a Stable Light Source

A beam splitter is used as part of the internal reference system of the HI83306 photometer. The reference detector compensates for any drift due to power fluctuations or ambient temperature changes. Now you can rely on a stable source of light between your blank (zero) measurement and sample measurement.

Large Cuvette Size

The sample cell of the HI83306 fits a round, glass cuvette with a 25 mm path length. Along with the advanced optical components, the larger size of the cuvette greatly reduces errors in rotation from the indexing mark of the cuvettes. The relatively long path length of the sample cuvette allows the light to pass through more of the sample solution, ensuring accurate measurements even in low absorbance samples.

Focusing Lens for Greater Light Yield

Adding a focusing lens to the optical path allows for the collection of all of the light that exits the cuvette and focusing the light on the silicon photo detector. This novel approach to photometric measurements cancels the errors from imperfections and scratches present in the glass cuvette eliminating the need to index the cuvette.
