Bench Top Turbidity Meter BT2042

Introduction

Bench Top Turbidity Meter is a microcontroller based high accuracy device specially designed for water quality measurements. It is equipped with a 4.5 inch TFT display and calibration points up to 7 points using formazin standards. The robust outer material and casing offer additional protection to the device. It has an expanded memory storage up to 200 sets of data, providing reliable and accurate readings. The device uses an infrared-emitting diode having an 850 nm wavelength within 0° to 50°C operating temperature range.

Applications

It is suitable for testing the suspended solids in various fields such as water treatment plants, research centers, water recycling units, food and beverage industry and other laboratories.
