Certification

Canadian Radio Interference-Causing Equipment Regulation, IECS-003, Class A:
Supporting test records reside with the manufacturer.
This Class A digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations.
Cet appareil numérique de classe A répond à toutes les exigences de la réglementation canadienne sur les équipements provoquant des interférences.
FCC Part 15, Class "A" Limits
Supporting test records reside with the manufacturer. The device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following conditions:
1. The equipment may not cause harmful interference.
2. The equipment must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at their expense. The following techniques can be used to reduce interference problems:
1. Disconnect the equipment from its power source to verify that it is or is not the source of the
interference.
2. If the equipment is connected to the same outlet as the device experiencing interference, connect
the equipment to a different outlet.
3. Move the equipment away from the device receiving the interference.

4. Reposition the receiving antenna for the device receiving the interference.
5. Try combinations of the above.

Product overview

The TU5200 turbidimeter measures low turbidity mostly in finished drinking water applications. This laboratory instrument is factory calibrated and measures scattered light at an angle of 90° in a 360° radius around the axis of the incident light beam. Use the touch screen to operate the instrument. Refer to Figure 1.
An optional RFID module is available. Figure 1 shows the RFID module. The RFID module lets process and laboratory turbidity measurements be easily compared.
Videos on how to install, operate and do maintenance and troubleshooting on the TU5200 turbidimeter are available on the TU5 Series Turbidimeters playlist at
http://www.youtube.com/user/hachcompany.
For the accessories, refer to Replacement parts and accessories on page 34.

Installation

C A U T I O N
Multiple hazards. Only qualified personnel must conduct the tasks described in this section of the document.
This instrument is rated for an altitude of 3100 m (10,710 ft) maximum. Use of this instrument at an altitude higher than 3100 m can slightly increase the potential for the electrical insulation to break down, which can result in an electric shock hazard. The manufacturer recommends that users with concerns contact technical support.

Installation guidelines

Install the instrument:
• On a level surface
• In a clean, dry, well ventilated, temperature controlled location
• In a location with minimum vibrations that has no direct exposure to sunlight
• In a location where there is sufficient clearance around it to make connections and to do maintenance tasks
• In a location where the power button and power cord are visible and easily accessible

Connect to external devices (optional)

The instrument has three USB 1.1 ports and one Ethernet port. Refer to Figure 1 on page 8.
English

USB type A port—Connect to a printer, barcode handset scanner, USB flash drive, keyboard3 or
SIP 10 module.
USB type B port—Not used.
Ethernet port—Connect to a LAN with a shielded cable (e.g., STP, FTP, S/FTP). The maximum
length of the shielded cable is 20 m (65.6 ft). To identify if a LAN connection is necessary, refer to
Set up a LAN connection on page 16.
Note: USB cables must not be longer than 3 m (9.8 ft).

User interface and navigation

The instrument display is a touch screen. Only use a clean, dry finger tip to navigate the functions of the touch screen. Do not use writing tips of pens or pencils or other sharp objects to make selections on the screen or damage to the screen will occur.
