WQ770 Submersible Turbidity Sensor and Meter

Select a cable length configuration that meets your turbidity monitoring needs, please contact us for pricing on custom cable length configuration. The WQ770 includes a hard carrying case and comes calibrated and ready to use out of the box.

Highly accurate submersible turbidity monitoring sensor with a handheld digital display for in-situ environmental turbidity measurements or process monitoring. The turbidity sensor and digital display come standard with 25ft of marine grade cable, other cable length options are available. This portable turbidity meter features dual-channel, 0-50 NTU and 0-1000 NTU. Each turbidity meter is factory calibrated and ships in padded carrying case for easy transportation and protection in the field.

Turbidity Measuring Method

In accordance with USEPA Method 180.1 for turbidity measurement the sensor is a 90 degree scatter nephelometer where a focused beam is directed into the monitored water. The light beam reflects off particles in the water, and the resultant light intensity is measured by a photodetector positioned at 90 degrees to the light beam. The detected light intensity is directly proportional to the turbidity of the water. The WQ770 sensor utilizes a second light detector to correct for light intensity variations, color changes, and minor lens fouling.
