HACH 2100Q IS Portable Turbidimeter (LED), 0-1000 FNU
2100Q IS Portable Turbidimeter (LED), 0-1000 FNU
The portable turbidimeter is supplied with four alkaline batteries, a carrying case with insert, primary calibration standards in 1" sealed vials (20, 100, 800 NTU), 10 NTU primary verification standard, 6 sample cells with screw-tops, instrument manual (printed & CD-ROM), quick start guide, silicone oil and oiling cloth.
Benefits
Easy calibration and verification
Hach 2100Q and 2100Q IS portable turbidimeters provide the confidence your measurements are right every time. On-screen assisted calibration and verification save you time and ensure accuracy.
With an easy-to-follow interface, complicated manuals are not needed to perform routine calibrations. Single-standard RapidCal calibration offers a simplified solution for low level measurements.
Simple data transfer
Data transfer with the 2100Q / 2100Q IS is simple, flexible, and does not require additional software when used with the optional USB + Power module. All data can be transferred to the module and easily downloaded to your computer with a USB connection, providing superior data integrity and availability. With two different module options, you can customise connectivity and power to meet your unique needs.
Accurate for rapidly settling samples
The Hach 2100Q / 2100Q IS portable turbidimeter incorporates an innovative Rapidly Settling Turbidity mode to provide accurate, repeatable measurements for difficult to measure, rapidly settling samples.
An exclusive algorithm that calculates turbidity based on a series of automatic readings eliminates redundant measurements and estimating.
Convenient data logging
Up to 500 measurements are automatically stored in the instrument for easy access and backup. Stored information includes: date and time, operator ID, reading mode, sample ID, sample number, units, calibration time, calibration status, error messages and the result.
Optical system for precision in the field
The two-detector optical system compensates for colour in the sample, light fluctuation, and stray light, enabling analysts to achieve laboratory grade performance on a wide range of samples, even under difficult site conditions.
