EISCO Turbidity Tube Stopper with Secchi Disc Fits PH1120148 Series

Description

Product Overview

The EISCO Turbidity Tube Stopper with Secchi Disc is engineered as a precise replacement component for the PH1120148 series of turbidity tubes. Constructed from a high‑grade rubber material, the stopper provides an airtight seal that prevents leakage and contamination during sample handling. The attached Secchi disc is fabricated from water‑resistant, impact‑tolerant plastic and features alternating black and white quadrants that give a clear visual cue for turbidity assessment. The stopper measures 48 mm in diameter, while the Secchi disc below it measures 42 mm, creating a compact yet functional assembly that fits snugly into the standard 2‑inch tube opening. The combined length, including the ergonomic knob, is 80 mm (3.1 inches), offering a balanced profile that is easy to grip and operate. Designed for both laboratory benches and portable field kits, this component maintains dimensional stability across a wide temperature range, ensuring reliable performance in diverse environments. The product dimensions of 3.1 × 1.9 × 1.9 inches and weight of 4.8 oz make it lightweight for transport yet robust enough for repeated use. Manufactured by EISCO, a reputable name in scientific instrumentation, the stopper adheres to strict quality standards and is compatible with existing turbidity measurement protocols.

Usage

When conducting water quality analysis, the EISCO Turbidity Tube Stopper with Secchi Disc simplifies sample preparation and measurement. Users insert the stopper into the tube, ensuring the rubber seal engages the tube wall to create a leak‑free environment. The Secchi disc then provides a visual reference point that can be aligned with calibrated turbidity scales, allowing technicians to quickly estimate sample clarity. This stopper is suitable for routine monitoring of drinking water, wastewater treatment plants, environmental field surveys, and research laboratory experiments. Its design accommodates both manual and automated turbidity meters, making it a versatile accessory for a range of analytical instruments. The heavy‑duty rubber component tolerates repeated insertion and removal without loss of elasticity, while the plastic Secchi disc resists discoloration and deformation caused by exposure to chemicals or UV light. Users can confidently employ the stopper in outdoor conditions, such as river sampling or lake assessments, where durability and ease of handling are critical. The product’s compatibility with standard 2‑inch tubes eliminates the need for additional adapters, streamlining workflow and reducing setup time.
