Introduction
A portable suspended solids meter is a handheld instrument used to measure the concentration of suspended solids in water and wastewater, and it is used for environmental monitoring, wastewater treatment, process control, and many other applications where the turbidity or the suspended solids content of the water is important. The suspended solids meter measures the concentration of the suspended particles in the water, which scatter or absorb light, and it typically uses the turbidity measurement principle, in which a light beam passes through the sample, and the scattered light, measured at a specified angle, is related to the concentration of the suspended particles; the meter converts the turbidity or the scattered light measurement to a suspended solids concentration, expressed in milligrams per liter or parts per million, and it may use an infrared or visible light source, and it provides a rapid measurement in the field, with features such as a digital display, calibration, and data logging; the portable meter is battery-operated and designed for field use, with a rugged construction and a sensor that is immersed in the sample. Portable suspended solids meters are used for monitoring the suspended solids in rivers, lakes, and streams, for monitoring the effluent from wastewater treatment plants, for monitoring the suspended solids in industrial process water, for assessing the water quality in aquaculture, for monitoring dredging and construction, and for many other applications, and they are used by environmental professionals, plant operators, and researchers. With their rapid measurement, portable suspended solids meters are essential for on-site water quality monitoring.

FAQ
Q1: What scenarios is this meter used for?
A: It estimates suspended solids in wastewater on site using optical measurement with gravimetric correlation for process control. It is used in laboratory, production and field settings, and our team can recommend a suitable configuration for your specific application.
Q2: What standards does it comply with?
A: It follows Standard Methods 2540, related ISO and GB/T standards, with calibration against gravimetric TSS. The relevant parameters are verified during final inspection before shipment, and compliance documentation or test reports can be provided on request for your quality records.
Q3: What is the warranty?
A: The meter carries a 12 to 24 month warranty covering the unit. Cells are consumables. Damage from immersion beyond rating is excluded.
Q4: Is it hard to operate?
A: Operation requires trained staff for mixing and calibration. We provide a manual and training.
Q5: What is the lead time?
A: Standard models require 7-30 working days. In-stock units can ship within 3-7 working days. Custom configurations or large built-to-order systems may require additional time, and we confirm the exact schedule before order confirmation.
Q6: Is calibration required?
A: Performance should be verified periodically using calibrated reference standards, with results logged in the equipment record. Most users perform this check every 6 to 12 months or according to their internal quality schedule. We provide the procedure, reference materials and formal calibration service if required.
Q7: Are consumables universal?
A: Cells are model-specific, while filters for checks are standard. Ongoing cost is minimal.
Q8: Can it be customized?
A: Yes, several configurations are available. Options include range, data logging and field cases. We can discuss further custom requirements, confirm feasibility and advise any effect on the schedule before the order is confirmed.
Q9: Is installation included?
A: The instrument does not need professional installation. After unpacking, connect it to the specified power supply, allow it to stabilize and confirm the self-check passes. The package includes a printed manual, and our support team offers remote assistance throughout setup.
Q10: What samples are compatible?
A: It handles well-mixed water with solids in range. It is not for settled samples measured without mixing, non-aqueous liquids, or solids beyond range.
