Ordering Information
The Clarity II is a complete system for the determination of turbidity in water. It consists of an analyzer and one or two sensors with
a debubbler/measuring chamber assembly and a cable for each sensor. Four alarm relays are standard. A calibration cup is available
as an option. Because a sensor cannot be calibrated without a calibration cup, at least one cup must be ordered. Calibration standard
(formazin or polymer spheres) must be ordered as a separate item.
