Failure to do so could result in serious injury to the operator or damage to the equipment. To ensure that the protection provided by this equipment is not impaired, do not use or install this equipment in any manner other than that specified in this manual.

  • Page 12: General Product Information

    General information 2.2 General product information 2.2.1 Instrument description ® The Surface Scatter 7 sc (SS7 sc) Turbidimeter is a sensitive, continuous-monitoring instrument designed for measuring turbidity in fluids. The instrument design is based on the nephelometric principle, where light scattered by particles suspended in the fluid is measured to determine the relative amount of particulate matter in the fluid.
  • Page 13 General information 2.2.1.1 Controller The SS7 sc and SS7 sc-HST operate in conjunction with an sc100 controller. The controller enclosure houses the keypad, display, microprocessor board and power supply components. Operating controls and indicators are on the controller. The controller is used to program the instrument for turbidity level alarm set points and to perform diagnostic self-tests and programming operations.
