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.
