Turbidity in Laboratory
Turbidity in Laboratory
In laboratory settings, turbidity measurement supports a wide range of research, quality control, and validation activities across environmental, industrial, and academic disciplines. Reliable and precise turbidity data helps researchers and technicians perform repeatable experiments, validate filtration methods, and assess sample clarity in real time.
AlpHa’s TU90 turbidity sensor features a rugged optical system designed with the following features:
- Precision 90° laser-based scattering method compliant with ISO 7027
- Wide NTU range options (0 – 100, 0 – 1500, and 0 – 5000 NTU)
- Industry-leading low-range accuracy with ± 1% error in the 0 – 100 NTU range
- Built-in temperature compensation
- Custom OEM sonde and stand-alone configurations including optional programmable wiper
The measurement of turbidity is important in laboratory applications for the following reasons: AlpHa’s TU90 turbidity sensor is an ideal fit for laboratories requiring reliable and accurate turbidity measurement that aligns with both academic research and industrial QA / QC needs.
