Scope*1.1 This test method covers the static determination ofturbidity in water. Static refers to a sample that is removedfro

3、m its source and tested in an isolated instrument. (SeeSection 4.)1.2 This test method is applicable to the measurement ofturbidities greater than 1.0 turbidity unit (TU). The upper endof the measurement range was left undefined because differenttechnologies described in this test method can cover v

4、erydifferent ranges. The round robin study covered the range of04000 turbidity units because instrument verification in thisrange can typically be covered by standards that can beconsistently reproduced.1.3 Many of the turbidity units and instrument designscovered in this test method are numerically

Measurement of acommon calibration standard of a defined value will alsoproduce equivalent results across these technologies.1.3.1 In this test method calibration standards are oftendefined

Summary of Test Method4.1 The optical property expressed as turbidity is measuredby the scattering effect that constituents within a sample haveon light; th

45、e higher the quantity of scattered or attenuatedincident light, the higher the turbidity. In samples containingparticulate material, light scatter and attenuation will vary (1)due to size, shape and composition of the particles in the water,and (2) the wavelength of the incident light.4.2 This test

46、method is based upon a comparison of theamount of light scattered or attenuated by the sample with theamount of light scattered or attenuated by a reference suspen-sion. Lower turbidity values are typically determined by anephelometer, which measures light scatter from a sample in adirection that is

47、 at 90 with respect to the centerline of theincident light path. High-level turbidity determination can beperformed using many different technologies. It is criticalwhen reporting the measurement, traceability to the type oftechnology be used. Turbidity measurements are not oftenconsistent among dif

48、fering technologies.5. Significance and Use5.1 Turbidity at the levels defined in the scope of this testmethod are often monitored to help control processes, monitorthe health and biology of water environments and determinethe impact of changes in response to environmental events(weather events, flo

49、ods, etc.). Turbidity is often undesirable indrinking water, plant effluent waters, water for food andbeverage processing, and for a large number of other water-dependent manufacturing processes. Removal is often accom-plished by coagulation, sedimentation, and various levels offiltration. Measurement of turbidity provides an indicator ofcontamination, and is a vital measurement for monitoring thecharacteristics and or quality within the samples source orprocess.5.2 This test method does overlap Test Method D
