Turbidity Measurement 

An accurate turbidity measurement depends on good measurement 
techniques. Factors such as clean sample vial, positioning of vial in 
the measurement chamber, covering the vial with the light shield lid, 
meter calibration, removal of bubbles, etc. Refer to the 

Measurement 

and Calibration Hints

 section for detailed instructions on page 3. 

 

Measuring the Low Turbidity Sample 

For the low turbidity samples (< 200 NTU), we recommend that using 
the same vial to perform the calibration and measurement. 
1.1  Rinse the vial with approximately 10 ml of sample. Cap and upend 
 

the vial several times. Discard the used sample and repeat the 

 

rinsing procedure two more times. 

1.2  Fill the vial with the sample. Cap the vial and wipe with a lint-
 

free cloth to remove waterdrops and fingerprints. Hold the vial 

 

cap and gently inverting vial several times, ensure that the sample 

 

is homogeneous and no air bubbles. 

 

 

 

 
1.3  Insert the vial into the measurement chamber. Align the triangle 
 

mark on the vial with the arrow on the meter. Close the light   

 

shield lid. 

 

 

 
1.4  Press the 

Meas

 key, the meter begins measurement, the

 

 

 

icon shows on the screen. When the reading stabilizes, the icon 

 

will automatically switch to

 

 

 

 
1.5  If necessary, press the 

Meas

 key to take a new measurement. 

 

 

During the measurement, press the   key, the reading will be locked. 
Press the key again to resume measurement.
