An Experiment with the BACKPACK LAB ™ by Hanna Instruments

OBJECTIVES  To demonstrate the use of the Hanna Backpack Lab ™ in testing various water sources in Illinois.  To present notes and show results from the experiment to exhibit the capabilities of the Backpack Lab ™.  To help provide ideas for versatility of use.

SAMPLE LOCATIONS / TYPES  Calumet-Sag Channel  Maple Lake Forest Preserve  Lake Michigan  Tap Water (Frankfurt, IL)  Softened Water  Reverse Osmosis

Water Quality Backpack Lab ™ Contains:  Backpack for all items needed for testing.  Key terms for water quality testing.  Laminated field test procedure for each parameter.  Much more…

TEST PARAMETERS MEASURED / AVAILABLE  Nitrate  Phosphate  Temperature  Total Dissolved Solids  Turbidity  Acidity  Alkalinity  Carbon Dioxide  Conductivity (EC)  Dissolved Oxygen  Hardness

Notes from Cal-Sag Collection Site  Site located in Cook County at SEPA facility in Worth, IL at approximately 117 th and Harlem Ave.  Samples collected at 3:30 p.m. on 3/23/03.  Sunny  No wind  Air temperature was 64°F  Water flowing 0.25 ft/sec  Very turbid.

Notes from Maple Lake Collection Site  Site located in the Cook County Forest Preserves at 95 th Street and Wolf Road.  Samples collected at 4:30 p.m. on 3/23/03.  No wind  Air temperature was 64°F  Water was calm and had no flow.  Extremely clear

TESTING WAS PERFORMED
