LaMotte TC3000i Portable Trimeter Kit (Turbidity, Chlorine & Colour)

The LaMotte TC3000i is a precision turbidity, chlorine, and colour meter representing one of the most innovative handheld instruments available for water quality testing. This ISO 7027 compliant meter features an advanced infrared (IR) emitter that provides extended lifetime and superior precision and accuracy for turbidity readings, particularly on coloured samples and samples with high turbidity levels. The TC3000i measures turbidity in FNU units across a remarkable 0-4000 FNU range with exceptional accuracy (±0.05 FNU for 0-2.5 FNU range, ±2% for 2.5-100 FNU range), making it ideally suited for both low-level drinking water applications and high turbidity field monitoring. The new ratiometric design ensures easy and accurate testing while the multi-parameter capability allows simultaneous monitoring of turbidity, free and total chlorine (0-10.0 ppm), and colour (0-800 Platinum Cobalt Units).

Built to IP67 waterproof standards for demanding field conditions, the TC3000i features a user-friendly graphic LCD display with easy menu-driven operation and supports six languages: English, French, Spanish, Japanese, Italian, Portuguese, and Chinese. Advanced data logging capability stores up to 500 test points with date and time stamps, which can be viewed directly on the meter or downloaded to a PC via USB connection. The rechargeable lithium-ion battery (2200 mAH, 3.7V) ensures extended field operation, while automatic range selection and signal averaging options deliver consistent, reliable results. Complete kits include the meter, 0, 1, and 10 NTU calibration standards, sample bottle, six test tubes with caps, 100 each Free and Total Chlorine DPD tablets, USB cable, and computer/wall adapter for immediate deployment in drinking water systems, wastewater treatment facilities, environmental monitoring, and industrial process control applications.
