The TSS Portable hand-held meter (photo) offers turbidity, suspended solids and sludge-blanket level measurement in one instrument. The TSS is ideal for remote monitoring of rivers and applications involving municipal and industrial wastewater, and drinking water. Additionally, this instrument can be used as an optimization tool or as an easy way to calibrate or validate on-line sensors. The TSS Portable uses a multi-beam alternating light method with an infrared (IR) diode system, allowing a broad measuring range for both turbidity and suspended solids. It stores up to four different calibration curves for suspended solids and one for turbidity. The meter’s internal memory stores up to 290 measuring values, including time, date, measurement, location, and homogeneity. — Hach Co., Loveland, Colo.
