Overview

A Benchtop Turbidity Meter is an instrument used to measure the turbidity of liquids, which indicates the presence of suspended particles. It operates by passing a light beam through a liquid sample and measuring the intensity of light scattered by the particles. The results are typically displayed in Nephelometric Turbidity Units (NTU). This device is commonly used in water treatment facilities, laboratories, and industrial settings to monitor the clarity and quality of liquids.

Features:

• 1-5 points calibration using Formazin standards or zero water.
• Autoranging from 0-200 NTUs.
• 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.

🔬 How It Works?
The AE-TU200 measures turbidity by passing an 850nm LED light beam through a liquid sample. Suspended particles scatter the light, which is detected at a 90° angle by the sensor. The intensity of scattered light correlates with turbidity levels, displayed in Nephelometric Turbidity Units (NTU). This nephelometric principle ensures accurate, real-time monitoring of liquid clarity. Calibration with Formazin standards or zero water ensures measurement precision.
