Turbidity measurements
With its especially positioned 860 nm LED the PF‑12Plus enables nephelometric turbidity measurements (NTU) in the range of 1–1000 NTU. Therefore, disturbing turbidities will be detected reliably in parallel to a measurement of tube tests – a huge PLUS onmeasurement safety. Furthermore, the PF‑12Plus offers the possibility to accurately determine the turbidity in transmitted light from 4–350 FAU.
Easy implementation
Measurement results are obtained very quickly with the PF‑12Plus, thanks to its simple operation. Equipped with more than 100 preprogrammed methods, it is the ideal companion for analysis on the road. The PF‑12Plus comes with easy to understand pictogram instructions in a practical manual for the evaluation of VISOCOLOR ECO test kits.
Free programming
In addition to the preprogrammed methods, the PF‑12Plus offers the possibility to create up to 50 special methods for customized applications. Equations up to 4th degree and logarithmic functions can be programmed systematically.
