Description
T500-1 Standard calibration solution set (20/100/400/800 NTU) for TN500/TN420 is a complete kit of AMCO Clear® turbidity standard solutions intended for portable white-light turbidity meters. The set comprises four ready-to-use standards at 20,0 NTU, 100 NTU, 400 NTU and 800 NTU. These practical submicron polymer suspensions function as non-toxic primary calibration standards approved by the US EPA for turbidity analysis of drinking water. The solutions require no dilution or resuspension, are safe to handle and easy to dispose of after use. Designed specifically for the TN500 and TN420 instruments, the kit enables straightforward calibration of turbidity sensors in laboratory and field settings. Offered by manufacturer APERA Instruments, the standards deliver consistent optical properties suited to white-light turbidimeters. The convenient multi-value format supports routine verification across a useful measurement range while maintaining the simplicity expected of primary reference materials for drinking-water turbidity work.
This article is part of pH buffers & conductivity standards, in Buffers & pH solutions.

Questions about T500-1 Polymer AMCO Turbidity Calibration Solution Kit for TN500 and TN420
What is this article?
T500-1 Polymer AMCO Turbidity Calibration Solution Kit for TN500 and TN420 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes APERA Instruments for laboratory use. It sits in pH buffers & conductivity standards, inside Buffers & pH solutions, in Lab chemicals.
A pH buffer for calibration has a stated pH at a stated temperature, often traceable. A conductivity standard has a stated conductivity. They are not general reagents and they should not be poured back into the bottle. The temperature of the measurement has to be the temperature on the label, or the meter has to compensate.
A buffer resists a change in pH when a little acid or base is added. It does that because a weak acid and its conjugate base are both present. A pH buffer used to calibrate a meter has a stated value at a stated temperature. A biological buffer such as Tris or HEPES is chosen because it holds the pH of a living system and does not poison it. Conductivity standards are the sister articles for a conductivity meter. The ions are on PubChem. Electrode calibration practice sits with EURAMET and BELAC.
