A water quality meter is a device that is used to measure either a single or multiple water quality parameters in real-time. Often used in laboratories to confirm lab water quality, make buffer solutions, and numerous other uses, many industries such as the environmental industry also use multiparameter water quality meters in the field to rapidly analyze and record water quality data. Common parameters water quality meters measure include turbidity, total dissolved solids, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, and pH. Most laboratories will opt for a multiparameter water quality meter for its ability to measure multiple parameters simultaneously. When comparing water quality meters consider the number and type of parameters measured as well as their range and accuracy. Also, consider the calibration process of each device, and for those wishing to use the meter in the field consider the durability and portability of the device. With use in almost every industry, water quality meters are an indispensable part of any testing laboratory.

| Description | The Turbidity Meter enables precise turbidity measurement using infrared scattered-light technology. This means turbidity is captured and assessed reliably, largely independent of the sample color.
The Turbidity Meter consists of a portable handheld unit with an ergonomic design and a robust The Turbidity Meter enables precise turbidity measurement using infrared scattered-light technology. This means turbidity is captured and assessed reliably, largely independent of the sample color.
The Turbidity Meter consists of a portable handheld unit with an ergonomic design and a robust turbidity sensor connected via a 3 m / 9.8 ft cable. The sensor housing made of SUS316L stainless steel is protected to IP68 and is suitable for use in damp or wet environments. The handheld unit meets IP67 protection and is therefore protected against dust and temporary immersion.
For convenient operation, the Turbidity Meter features a 3.5-inch color display with adjustable backlighting. The clearly arranged user interface with symbol-based menu guidance makes operation easier, while the measured values remain easy to read even in strong ambient light. A non-slip rubber grip and a detachable wrist strap ensure secure handling, even in wet conditions or when used on the move.
The integrated USB interface is used both for charging the lithium-ion battery and for data transfer. The 8 GB memory provides space for more than 100,000 measured values. Measurement data can be saved, exported via USB as a CSV file, and then further processed for analysis, documentation or report creation.
A password-protected user access system with different user rights protects the device settings from unauthorized changes. The Turbidity Meter is therefore particularly suitable for professional applications in water analysis, environmental monitoring, water management, aquaculture, and industrial and municipal water testing.

In addition, the device is also suitable for use in sea water or saline media (salt water). It is used for reliable monitoring of waterThe Environmental Meter is used for continuous online monitoring of water turbidity in drinking water systems, filtration systems and direct drinking water systems. In addition, the device is also suitable for use in sea water or saline media (salt water). It is used for reliable monitoring of water quality after treatment, filtration and disinfection processes in a wide range of applications.
The Environmental Meter operates using the nephelometric 90° scattered light method. A tungsten lamp emits light into the water sample, which is scattered by suspended particles. A silicon sensor detects the scattered light at a 90° angle and determines the turbidity in NTU from this. The Environmental Meter has a measuring range of 0.001 ... 100 NTU and enables high-resolution detection of even very low turbidity values. Measurement is continuous in online operation and the measured values are transmitted cyclically to an external evaluation system via the RS485 Modbus interface.
Calibration of the Environmental Meter is software-based via the RS485 Modbus interface. First, the zero point is set using pure water (0 NTU), after which a standard solution is used for adjustment.
The Environmental Meter is characterised by repeatability of ±2% and protection rating IP65. It is designed for easy installation and low maintenance requirements. The flow rate is 300 ... 700 ml/min. The connections are 1/2 inch NPT (outlet) and 1/4 inch NPT (inlet and overflow), and the power supply is 12V DC.
This makes the device suitable for reliable and continuous monitoring of water quality in modern water treatment, environmental and process systems – both in fresh water and in sea water/salt water applications....
