Turbidity Meter
Turbidimeters are equipment that through optical analysis measure the turbidity of a liquid. That is, they are devices capable of measuring the size and concentration of particles in a suspension by diffusing light at 90 ° in a tube. It can be portable or fixed.
These instruments determine how cloudy a liquid is, in fact, they are considered the most widely used instrumental method today, among others for its ease of use, high precision and repeatability. Turbidimeters require no warm-up time and provide marked long-term performance without the need for lamp replacement.

Our Best Selling Turbidity Meter
The amount of light reflected for a specific particle density depends on the properties of the particles such as their shape, color and reflectivity. From an optical detector, with the light source at 90 degrees, the density of the particles will be a function of the light reflected by the particles suspended in the detector.
Turbidity, is a measure of the opacity or haze of a fluid, it was originally thought as a qualitative measure of the aesthetics of drinking water. It is not a measure of actual particles in the water; it actually measures how much those particles affect the light that is transmitted through the water, or how that light reflects off the particles in the water.

Turbidity Meter operating
A Turbidimeter measures suspended particles with a beam (beam source) and a light detector fixed at 90° from the original beam. The density of the particles is a function of the light reflected by the particles suspended in the detector. The amount of light reflected for a given particle density depends on the properties of the particles such as their shape, color, and reflectivity.
Turbidity can be estimated with equipment such as the spectrophotometer and the colorimeter, which can measure the decrease in transmitted light due to the blockage generated by particles. However, these measurements are not considered valid by the international regulatory bodies because they do not comply with the accepted definition of turbidity, they propose at all times the use of the turbidimeter.
