Chemical or biological hazards. If this instrument is used to monitor a treatment process and/or
chemical feed system for which there are regulatory limits and monitoring requirements related to
public health, public safety, food or beverage manufacture or processing, it is the responsibility of the
user of this instrument to know and abide by any applicable regulation and to have sufficient and
appropriate mechanisms in place for compliance with applicable regulations in the event of malfunction
of the instrument.
The TU5300 sc and the TU5400 sc turbidimeters are used with an SC controller to measure lowrange turbidity mostly in finished drinking water applications. Refer to Figure 1.
The TU5300 sc and the TU5400 sc turbidimeters measure scattered light at an angle of 90° in a 360°
radius around the axis of the incident light beam.
An optional RFID module and an automatic system check option are available4. The RFID module is
shown in Figure 1. The RFID module lets process and laboratory turbidity measurements be easily
compared. A description of the automatic system check option is given in the expanded user manual
on the manufacturer's website.
PROGNOSYS predictive diagnostic software is available for the TU5300 sc and TU5400 sc
turbidimeters. To use PROGNOSYS, connect the turbidimeter to an SC controller with
PROGNOSYS.
Videos on how to install, operate and do maintenance and troubleshooting on the TU5300 sc and the
TU5400 sc turbidimeters are available on the TU5 Series Turbidimeters playlist at
