AELAB Portable Turbidity Meter AE-TU1000P – Accurate Field Water Testing

The Portable Turbidity Meter  is a compact, handheld instrument designed for measuring the turbidity of liquids in the field. It provides accurate turbidity readings, displayed in Nephelometric Turbidity Units (NTU), by shining a light through the sample and detecting the scattered light caused by suspended particles.

Thefeatures a digital display for easy reading of results and is designed for quick calibration, ensuring reliable measurements. Its portable design makes it ideal for use in remote locations or in situations where lab equipment is not available. The meter is durable, with a sturdy build that can withstand harsh environmental conditions, and is powered by batteries for convenient field use.

Features:

• 850nm LED light Source.
• Uses Nephelometric principle with 90° detection.
• Meets ISO 7027 and offers consistent light source for higher accuracy.
• Selectable turbidity units, including the NTU, FNU and EBC.
• Settable parameters, including user ID, number of calibration points, data and time, etc.
• Auto-power-off feature effectively extends the battery usage time.
• IP65 waterproof.
• 1-7 points calibration using Formazin standards or zero water.
• Autoranging from 0-1000 NTUs.
• Data capacity of up to 2000 sets (GLP-compliant).
• Data stored can be transferred into the computer by USB or RS-232 communication interface.

🔬 How It Works?

The AE-TU1000P measures turbidity using the nephelometric principle—a beam of light is passed through the sample, and a sensor detects the light scattered at a 90° angle by suspended particles. The meter’s 850 nm infrared LED ensures stability and compliance with ISO 7027 standards. Users can quickly calibrate the instrument, take measurements in NTU, FNU, or EBC, and store results for later analysis.
