Factory Reset

 

The Reset feature is used to restore the meter back to factory default 
settings. If enabled, all of the calibration data and selected options   
will be deleted or reset, the meter must be recalibrated. 
 
 

Note, the data logs will not be deleted.

Measurement and Calibration Hints 

 

Never pour the sample directly into the measurement chamber

 

and using a vial to perform measurement. 

 

Make sure the sample in vial is homogeneous. Do not shake or 

 

agitate the solution violently to prevent air bubbles. 

 

Keep the outside of vial clean and dry. If necessary, wipe the vial 

 

with a lint-free cloth. 

 

If the vial has scratches or scuffs, replace a new one (order code 

 

TB-GV). 

 

During the calibration and measurement processes, make sure 

 

the vial is positioned in the measurement chamber and the   

 

triangle mark on the vial must be aligned with the arrow on the 

 

meter. 

 

 

 

 

Always  close  the  light  shield  lid  to  prevent  the  measurement 

 

errors from ambient light. 

 

Wash the sample vial with distilled water after measurement. 

 

Any residues can cause inaccurate readings. 

 

 

 

Turbidity Calibration 

The TB200 turbidity meter allows turbidity calibration up to 7 points 
with minimum of 2 points, the default calibration points include the 
0.02, 10, 200, 500, 1000, 1500 and 2000 NTU. For better accuracy, we 
recommend to select a calibration point close to the sample value you 
are measuring. Note, the meter is calibrated with Formazin Standards 
at the factory and does not require user calibration before use. 

 

Calibrating the Meter 

1. 

Press the 

Cal

 key to enter the calibration mode. Press the 

 / 

 

 key to select the number of calibration points. 

 

 

 

 
2. 

Press the 

Enter

 key, the screen shows 0.02 NTU. If necessary, 

 

press the 

 / 

 key to select first calibration point, the meter 

 

will perform the calibration from the low to high turbidity. 

 

 

 

 
3. 

Take out the corresponding turbidity standard from accessory box 

 

(e.g., 0.02 NTU), wipe the vial with a lint-free cloth to remove 

 

fingerprints. Hold the vial cap and gently inverting vial several 

 

times, ensure that the turbidity standard is homogeneous and no

 

air bubbles. 

 

 

 
4. 

Insert

 

the vial into the measurement chamber.

 

Align the triangle 

 

mark on the vial cap with the arrow on the meter.

 

Close the light 

 

shield lid.
