1. Mandatory Certifications for Export-Grade Turbidity Meters
Three Indispensable Global Certifications
CE certification, ISO 9001, and RoHS compliance are the three essential certifications for exporting turbidity meters to international markets.
CE MarkingProves conformity with EU health, safety and environmental protection standards; mandatory access credential for European Economic Area sales.
ISO 9001 Quality System CertificationValidates standardized factory quality management system, guarantees stable product quality and full production traceability.
RoHS ComplianceRestricts harmful heavy substances (lead, mercury, cadmium, etc.), meets strict chemical control regulations in EU, US and major Asian regions.
Certified Product Model
ERUN-SP5-B6 Portable Turbidity Meter fully obtains CE, ISO 9001 and RoHS triple certifications, greatly simplifying customs clearance and overseas regulatory approval for global purchasers.
2. Working Principle of Portable Turbidity Meter
Core Detection Principle
A portable turbidity meter measures water clarity by detecting light scattered by suspended particles, adopting the standard 90-degree nephelometric method.
The equipment emits light beam into water sample; suspended particles scatter incident light;
A photosensitive detector installed at 90° receives scattered light signals;
Higher light intensity corresponds to higher water turbidity, and the result is output in NTU (Nephelometric Turbidity Units).
Optical Configuration of ERUN-SP5-B6
Equipped with imported long-life high-performance light source + cold light source + narrow-band interference optical system, featuring outstanding repeatability and high measurement precision.
Supports one-click switch between dual light sources to satisfy ISO and EPA two mainstream testing standards, applicable to multi-region regulatory testing scenarios.

6. Professional FAQ
Q: What is the difference between NTU, FTU, and EBC units?
A: NTU (Nephelometric Turbidity Units) is the most widely used turbidity unit for water testing. FTU (Formazin Turbidity Units) is equivalent to NTU in most practical testing scenarios. EBC (European Brewery Convention) is specially applied in beverage brewing industry. ERUN-SP5-B6 supports free switching among the three units.
Q: How often should a turbidity meter be calibrated?
A: Calibration frequency depends on service frequency and testing medium. ERUN-SP5-B6 supports 2–5 point calibration and factory one-key reset function. For high-standard critical testing scenarios, daily or weekly calibration is recommended.
Q: Can ERUN-SP5-B6 work in harsh field environments?
A: Yes. IP66 protection grade, working temperature range 1–45°C, storage temperature range -15–60°C, designed for long-term outdoor field detection under complicated conditions.
