1.0 Overview
The MICRO TOL process turbidimeter allows for the measurement of the turbidity of
process water on-line. The White Light MICRO TOL has been designed to meet the
design criteria specified by the US EPA 180.1 on turbidity measurement. The infrared
MICRO TOL was designed to meet the design criteria specified in ISO 7027 and DIN
27027 for the measurement of the turbidity of a sample. Both models have long life lamps.
Some models have ultrasonic cleaning. Refer to section 8.2 for more information.
A pressure regulator on the incoming line is a standard on all Micro TOL instruments and
will reduce pressures up to 1380kPa (200 PSI) down to (104kPa) 15 PSI.

Remove the instrument from the packing carton. Carefully inspect all items to ensure that
no visible damage has occurred during shipment. If the items received do not match the
order, please immediately contact the local distributor or the HF scientific, inc. Customer
Service department.
Note: The spare cuvette part# 50033 is not included for models 20055, 20056 20063 & 20064.
1.3 The Display
Figure 1 illustrates all the items that can appear on the display. The upper row of the
display (1) is used for reporting the turbidity levels and to provide user guidance in the
customer setting routine. The lower row of the display (2) is used to communicate error
messages and provide user guidance. The display has two icons (3) that are used to
indicate the use of access code and offset mode. In addition, mode arrows (4) are used to
indicate the current instrument operating mode; AUTO (normal operation), CAL
(calibration) and CONFIG (configuration).

1.4 The Touch Pad
Figure 2 illustrates the touch pad. The touch pad has four buttons: MODE/EXIT, ↵, t,
and u. The MODE/EXIT button is used to cycle between the three operational modes of
the instrument: CAL, CONFIG, and AUTO (Measurement) mode. The ↵ button enters
the option (or mode that is highlighted or chosen. The tand u buttons are used to change
settings.
Figure 2: Touch Pad
1.5 Vapor Purge
The Micro TOL is equipped with a continuous vapor purge system. A replaceable
desiccant pouch in the lower portion of the instrument dries the air. System heat is used to
warm the air. A fan inside the instrument continuously circulates heated dry air around the
optical well and the flow through cuvette. This feature eliminates the need for a dry purge
line.
The Micro TOL monitors the replaceable desiccant pouch condition continuously. The
LCD display will show DESC on the lower line in the event that the desiccant pouch
needs replacement. Replacement desiccant pouches are available from HF scientific, inc.
or the local representative (Part # 21555R). Refer to section 10.2 Replacing or installing
the Desiccant Pouch.
The desiccant can activate an alarm to notify the operator of a saturated desiccant. See
section 7.14 Desiccant Alarm.
Note: Prior to installing the desiccant pouch for the first time the shipping support must be
removed. This tube can be discarded.
2.0 Safety
This manual contains basic instructions that must be followed during the commissioning,
operation, care and maintenance of the instrument. The safety protection provided by this
equipment may be impaired if it is commissioned and/or used in a manner not described in
this manual. Consequently, all responsible personnel must read this manual prior to
working with this instrument.
In certain instances Notes, or helpful hints, have been highlighted to give further
clarification to the instructions. Refer to the Table of Contents to easily find specific
topics and to learn about unfamiliar terms.

3.0 Installation and Commissioning
Prior to use for the first time, the supplied desiccant pouch will need to be installed. Refer
to section 10.2 Replacing or Installing the Desiccant Pouch.
3.1 Mounting & Site Selection
The instrument is designed for wall mounting. If wall mounting is not practical, the
instrument can be mounted on any suitable level surface. For ease of service there should
be about 20 cm (8”) free area above the instrument; this will ensure enough room for
calibration and cuvette maintenance. Choose a location that is easily accessible for
operation and service and ensure that the front display rests at eye level. The overall
mounting dimensions of the instrument are shown in Figure 3. The recommended
mounting screws are M6 (¼”) for the instrument enclosure and M4 (#8) for the field
terminal box. The Micro TOL is designed to have the field terminal box cradled under the
sensor portion of the instrument. It is recommended that the field terminal box be mounted
first, and then the rest of the instrument be mounted on top. The template on the last page
of this manual may be used to establish mounting hole locations.
Figure 3: Overall Mounting Dimensions of the Instrument
It is critical that the instrument be mounted as close as possible to the sampling point to
ensure a quick response time (within 2-3 meters (6-10 ft) of the sampling point).

Rev. 4.1
3.2 Plumbing
The recommended plumbing for the instrument is shown in Figure 4. The instrument is
designed to require very little head pressure to operate; around 6.9kPa (1 PSI). The flow
through cuvette is rated for a flow of 100ml/min. – 1 liter/min. (0.026-0.26Gal/min). The
integral pressure regulator is rated for a maximum pressure of 1380 kPa (200 PSI.). The
maximum allowable fluid temperature is 50°C (122°F).
Figure 4: Recommended Plumbing for the Instrument
The instrument is equipped to be plumbed using 4.75 mm (3/16”) ID, 8 mm (5/16”) OD
flexible tubing. Opaque tubing should be used if the tubing will be exposed to sunlight, to
prevent algae growth.
In figure 4, there are two flow devices shown. The one on the input side is a shutoff clamp
used during cuvette maintenance. The other device is a backpressure valve. Backpressure
may be required to prevent air from coming out of solution, which may be observed as
tiny air bubbles.
MICRO TOL (6/08) 6
Rev. 4.1
3.2.1 Drain Vent: The Micro TOL has been fitted with a drain vent in the “OUT”
bulkhead fitting. This fitting allows for atmospheric equalization, thus helping to alleviate
bubble formation in the cuvette. Refer to Figure 4.
Upon initial flow minor leakage may occur through the drain vent. This will subside once
normal flow is established.
For some high pressure systems, where the vent hole continuously leaks, a 6:32 seal screw
is provided which should be inserted into the vent hole and tightened.
The sensor drain tubing should be routed to a suitable drain. It is not recommended to
reintroduce the drain sample to the process stream.
3.2.2 Wetted Materials: HF scientific inc. accepts no responsibility for damage caused
by the introduction of vapors, fluids or other materials into the instrument process stream
which is not compatible with the instrument’s wetted materials. A list of the wetted
materials can be found in the specifications on page 1 of this manual.
3.3 Electrical Connections
All of the electrical connections to the instrument are made through the field terminal box,
which should be located directly under the sensor portion of the instrument. The
connections are labeled within the terminal box and are self-descriptive (see Figure 5).
Please follow all local and government recommendations and methods for installation of
electrical connections to and between the instrument and other peripheral devices.
Plugs are inserted into the alarm and 4-20mA/RS-485 cable bulkheads when shipped, to
ensure a watertight seal. These plugs should be removed and discarded when cabling to
either of these connections.
The power cable bulkhead will accept cable diameters from 5.8mm (.230 in.) up to 10 mm
(.395 in.). All terminals are designed to accept wires in the range of 14-28 AWG. All
wires should be stripped to a length of 6 mm (¼”). A strain relief strap is provided to
reduce tension on the power terminals.
It is the user’s responsibility to assure that the watertight seal is maintained after the
terminal box has been wired for operation. If any of the bulkheads are not tightened
properly around a cable or plug, the ratings of the instrument will be jeopardized and there
is a possibility of creating a shock hazard.
Note: Only qualified electricians should be allowed to perform the installation of the
instrument as it involves a line voltage that could endanger life.
