Portable Turbidity Meter

Ideal for turbidity measurement of industrial wastewater, construction wastewater, and environmental water such as river and lake water.

The TB-31 Portable Turbidity Meter features high reliability in low concentration regions, power saving design (120 hour continuous measurement with only two AA alkaline batteries), and waterproof construction for field measurement (IP67: The unit can be submerged at 1m depth for up to 30 min). Its immersion-type sensor is perfect for simple turbidity measurements in the field.

Features

  • High accuracy in low concentration regions.
    Repeatability of ± 0.5 NTU in low measurement ranges.
  • Power saving design
    Requires only two AA alkaline batteries for approximately 120 hours of continuous measurements.
  • Immersion measurement for one day monitoring (continuous measurement)
    Directly immersing the sensor into sample water makes it possible to monitor turbidity for one day (24 hours or less).
    *1 This sensor is not equipped with a cleaning function. Depending on the water quality or service conditions, it may not be possible to measure continuously for up to 120 hours. Please contact us for details.
    *2 Maximum water depth is 10 m.
  • 1,000 data memory function
    Auto-save for specified intervals*
    *Short interval memory function: 1 sec. to 99 min. 59 sec. Long interval memory function: 2 min. to 99 hrs. 59 min. (When using the long interval memory function, the power turns off(enters sleep mode)after measuring turbidity for 1 minute. It remains off until the next measurement starts.)
  • Great extensibility (Ability to connect the meter to a personal computer, an external printer and a recorder)
    We provide optional special data acquisition software for loading measurement data in text format on a personal computer.
