Description
Product Overview
The Bante TB200 Laboratory Turbidity Meter is engineered for professionals who demand accurate, repeatable measurements of water clarity and total suspended solids (TSS). Housed in a compact 9.8 x 6.9 x 3.7 inch frame that weighs only 3.3 pounds, the instrument balances portability with durability, making it suitable for both bench-top laboratory environments and on‑site field testing. The device supports a wide measurement range, from 0.02 NTU up to 2000 NTU, and offers selectable units including NTU, FNU, EBC, and ASBC, allowing users to align results with industry standards and regulatory requirements.
Calibration is streamlined through a 2‑to‑7 point process using certified turbidity standards (0.02, 10, 200, 500, 1000, 1500, 2000 NTU). This flexible calibration approach ensures the meter maintains its ±2% accuracy across the entire measurement spectrum, reducing the need for frequent recalibration and minimizing downtime. The TB200 also features a selectable measurement mode that toggles between turbidity and TSS calculations, providing versatility for diverse analytical protocols.</n
Data management is facilitated by an integrated USB interface that enables rapid transfer of up to 200 stored data sets to a computer. Accompanying communication software automatically formats the received measurements into Excel‑compatible files, simplifying data analysis, reporting, and archival. The instrument’s internal memory can retain up to 200 data sets, ensuring that critical measurements are not lost even when the device is powered down.
Security is addressed through password protection, which restricts unauthorized access to calibration settings and configuration menus. The setup menu includes eight configurable options: date and time, measurement mode, resolution, TSS factor, auto‑power‑off timer, factory reset, and more. This level of control guarantees that the instrument operates consistently according to the user’s specifications, while also safeguarding the integrity of the measurement process.
Usage
The TB200 is designed for a broad spectrum of applications, ranging from environmental monitoring of rivers, lakes, and wastewater treatment plants to quality control in pharmaceutical manufacturing, food and beverage production, and industrial process water management. Its robust construction and intuitive interface make it equally effective in controlled laboratory settings and rugged field conditions. Users can quickly deploy the meter to assess turbidity levels in raw water sources, evaluate the effectiveness of filtration systems, or verify compliance with regulatory limits for drinking water quality.
Because the device supports both turbidity and TSS measurement modes, analysts can obtain comprehensive insight into particulate content without the need for separate instruments. The selectable units allow seamless integration of results into existing data management systems, ensuring that reports align with the specific standards required by local, national, or international guidelines. The USB data transfer capability further streamlines workflow by eliminating manual transcription errors and accelerating the generation of analytical reports.
Field technicians appreciate the TB200’s lightweight design and battery‑operated auto‑power‑off feature, which conserves energy during extended sampling campaigns. The instrument’s quick‑response sensor delivers real‑time readings, enabling immediate decision‑making when water quality thresholds are approached or exceeded. Whether deployed on a research vessel, in a remote monitoring station, or within a cleanroom laboratory, the TB200 provides reliable, high‑resolution data that supports critical environmental and industrial decisions.
