C. Free Chlorine
1.
Chlorine is a germicide used in the disinfection of drinking water,
with water to form the hypochlorite ion and hypochlorous acid, the
Some chlorine is initially consumed by organic matter and metal
ions present in solution. The amount of chlorine a particular solution
consumes is called chlorine demand. The amount of chlorine that
remains beyond this initial consumption is called free chlorine. Enough
chlorine must be added to solution so that residual levels of free
chlorine have ongoing germicidal properties. The 6Pfc is designed to
measure these residuals.
Free Chlorine Units

The Myron L Company has been able to increase the accuracy of low-
range ppm free chlorine readings through extensive bench testing.
This feature allows the 6Pfc to measure a dynamic range of sanitizer
concentrations that is wider than the range of a colorimetric test kit.
