Hannah Phosphate ULR Checker

[denverjon]

I just started testing phosphates with my new Phosphate ULR Checker and I'm getting a reading of .16. I know you don't need to convert the results with this particular checker but the number seems high to me. Am I analyzing it correctly?

Nope the ULR phosphorus checker needs to be converted. The phosphate checker is already in ppm

We are going to need a little more info

Yep, that's a little on the high side.

Sorry I completely misread your question!

I thought it was a bit high but I just wanted to make sure I'm analyzing it accurately. If I'm striving to keep my phosphates at say .03, that's would it would read on my checker, correct? Again, it's the ULR Phosphate so there shouldn't be any need to convert the numbers.

.03 on the ULR should be 10. 16 is actually .05ish.

ULR phosphate checker, or HI774, to be more specific, does not need to be converted. And yes, 0.13 does seem a bit on the high side.

Guys, there is a ULR phosphate checker (HI774), as opposed to the ULR phosphorus checker (HI736).
Since the op specifically mentioned ULR phosphate, i am assuming he has the newest 774 model.

Thanks for the replies. I do have the new 774 model. I just got confused because it's been a long time since my phosphates have tested that high so I thought I might be reading it wrong.
