1.0 Overview
1.1 The M100+ Product Description
The M100+ is a process turbidimeter that allows for the laboratory measurement of
the turbidity of sample water. The white light M100+ has been designed to meet the
design criteria specified by the US EPA 180.1 on turbidity measurement. The
infrared M100+ 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.
The M100+ instruments are equipped with a USB slot in order to download logged
data and calibration information and to update operating software.
The M100+ is equipped with a color touch screen for easy and efficient operation.

A ferrite is included with the power supply. This should be looped twice
through the cord near the side that connects to the instrument to eliminate EMI
interference.
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 Customer Service department.

3.0 Site Selection
The M100+ must be used in a suitable dry location with adequate ventilation. It
should not be located where chemicals such as chlorine are located. It must be operated
and stored between 1 and 40°C. The instrument should be used on a stable table top
and less than 90 cm (3 feet) from a power source.
Power Requirements:
The M100+ requires 12VDC for proper operation. The provided supply is rated at
1A.
The M100+ is supplied with a wall mount power supply intended for operation with
100-240 VAC, 47-63 Hz power source. BEFORE installing, verify that the line
voltage falls within these specifications.
Connect the wall mount power supply to the rear panel of the M100+.
An optional Euro wall mount power supply is available.
4.0 Setup, Configuration and Calibration
Before using your M100+, you will need to familiarize yourself with the
instrument’s operating modes and functions and perform some setup, configuration, and
calibration.
The M100+ allows for the measurement of the turbidity of water. The
turbidity of the water is usually reported in Nephelometric Turbidity Units
(NTU) but may be reported in Formazin Nephelometric Units (FNU). This is
user selectable.
Readings up to 4400 are possible but readings above 4000 are outside of
the rated specifications. Readings above 4400 NTU will cause the display to
flash indicating an over-range condition.
During normal operation, the instrument will be at the HOME screen. This is
this screen where measurements can be viewed.
Please note, some features depicted in this manual may change with future
firmware updates.
