The PCE-TUM 50 turbidity meter is a portable turbidity measuring device according to the ISO 7027 standard. With this, the user can quickly and easily determine important water parameters with a turbidity meter, as well as check the quality of drinking water and wastewater leads. Calibrating the PCE-TUM 50 turbidity meter is very easy thanks to the included calibration standards. Configuration can be done with 7 preset points. In addition, user-specific correction points can be set. The Turbidity Meter can measure liquid turbidity up to 2000 NTU.
Also, the unit can be changed to EBC (European Brewery Convention) or ASBC (American Society of Beer Pharmacists). The measured value can be seen in the large color image. Turbidity meters are often used in laboratories, so they are mains-powered. The turbidity meter can be connected to a computer via the rear USB interface and the memory can be erased.
