DO 1730 dissolved oxygen bench meter. The Eutech 1700
series meters are designed to provide the important
functions needed for routine measurements with simplified,
convenient, easy-to-use functionality.
The Eutech DO 1730 dissolved oxygen meters are capable
of measuring dissolved oxygen as % saturation or
concentration in mg/L or ppm simultaneously with
temperature. These meters offer a large, backlit display for
clear viewing with small footprint to conserve laboratory
bench space.
Ensure important data is preserved with a 500-point data
log with date/time stamp that can also be exported to a
printer or computer using the meter communication port.
All Eutech DO 1730 dissolved oxygen meters include a
meter-attached electrode holder and universal 100-240V
power adapter with wall plugs for US/Japan, Euro,
UK/Singapore, Australia/New Zealand and China.
