Industrial facilities use turbidity measurement to evaluate cooling water, process water, and wastewater treatment performance, helping maintain system efficiency.
Municipal laboratories rely on benchtop turbidity meters for routine water quality verification and compliance monitoring.
Environmental monitoring laboratories use turbidity analysis to evaluate surface water, groundwater, and environmental samples.
Suitable for small to medium-scale water plants and industrial utilities that require reliable turbidity testing equipment with stable long-term performance.
Benchtop Turbidity Measurement Instrument for Engineering Advantages
The instrument integrates an imported high-performance light source with a lifespan of up to 100,000 hours, combined with a precision narrow-band optical filter system. This configuration ensures excellent optical stability and significantly reduces interference from external light sources, enabling highly reliable turbidity measurements.
With a minimum resolution of 0.01 NTU and ±2% full-scale accuracy, the instrument provides precise turbidity monitoring across the entire measurement range. Low drift performance (<0.1 NTU/hour) ensures measurement consistency during continuous laboratory operation.
A large LCD display with clear menu navigation simplifies instrument operation. Operators can quickly access measurement results, calibration settings, and stored data without complex configuration procedures.
The instrument supports storage of up to 20 standard calibration curves and 200 measurement records. Stored data remains secure even during power interruptions, ensuring continuity in laboratory data management and traceability.
The housing is manufactured using molded ABS corrosion-resistant material, providing excellent durability in laboratory and industrial environments where exposure to moisture and chemicals is common.
A high-performance low-power 16-bit microcontroller system ensures stable instrument operation, fast response time, and reliable measurement processing for daily laboratory use.
