The meter is supplied with ready-to-use, highly stable EPA-approved polymer bead primary standards. Calibration is easy with step-by-step prompts with the option to choose which points to calibrate. The standards can be used for a cal check at any time, verifying that your readings are accurate.

The Thermo Orion AQ3010 portable turbidity meter uses the nephelometric principle of measurement for the detection of light scattered at a 90 degree angle from the incident light. This infrared (IR) incident light meter meets ISO Standard 7027 Turbidity method.

The infrared (IR) light source of the AQ3010 meter offers better performance than tungsten sources in highly colored solutions and also offers a lower cost of ownership than tungsten bulb meters. The meter saves you time and money with minimal maintenance of its LED light source, consistent calibrations and confidence in the accuracy and reproducibility of your results.
