Purpose:
The U-50 series multi-parameter water-quality meter simultaneously measures and displays 11 parameters. Rugged, powerful and GPS-equipped, it is ideal for testing rivers, ground-water and waste-water.
Features:
• Read-outs in five languages (English, Japanese, Russian, Spanish, Portuguese)
• Simultaneous display of 11 parameters: pH, pH (mV), ORP, dissolved oxygen, conductivity, salinity, TDS, seawater specific gravity, temperature, turbidity and water depth
• U-53 turbidity probe meets US EPA requirements; resolution 0.01 NTU with automatic cleaning brush
• U-54 turbidity probe complies with EN ISO 7027; resolution 0.01 NTU
• Improved DO probe gives faster response and easier maintenance
