Turbidity Test Kit LaMotte 7519-01 Individual Meter 5x7x6 in 1 lb

Description

Product Overview

The LaMotte 7519-01 Individual Test Kit is engineered to provide accurate turbidity measurements in a compact, user‑friendly package. Constructed in the United States, this kit combines a high‑quality optical sensor with a durable housing that measures 5 x 7 x 6 inches and weighs just one pound, making it easy to transport between laboratory benches, field sites, and water treatment facilities. The instrument utilizes a calibrated light source and detector system that quantifies the scattering of light caused by suspended particles, delivering results in Nephelometric Turbidity Units (NTU) with repeatable precision. Designed for both seasoned professionals and newcomers to water analysis, the kit includes all necessary accessories: a calibrated cuvette, a protective case, a quick‑start guide, and a USB interface for data export. The robust plastic enclosure meets industry standards for impact resistance, while the internal optics are sealed to protect against moisture and dust, ensuring long‑term reliability even in harsh environments.

Usage

In laboratory settings, the LaMotte 7519-01 serves as a primary instrument for monitoring water clarity in research, quality control, and compliance testing. Its rapid response time allows technicians to obtain results within seconds, facilitating high‑throughput sample analysis. The kit is equally effective in field applications such as environmental monitoring of rivers, lakes, and reservoirs, where portability and quick setup are essential. Users can deploy the device on site, collect turbidity data, and immediately transmit results to a central database via the USB connection or compatible wireless adapters. The intuitive interface features a single button operation and a clear LCD display, reducing the learning curve for new operators. Maintenance is straightforward: the sensor head can be cleaned with a soft lint‑free cloth, and the calibration routine can be performed using the supplied standard solutions, ensuring consistent performance over the lifespan of the instrument.
