Qiwei SS-500B Portable Suspended Solids Meter for Water Testing Malaysia
Qiwei SS-500B Portable Suspended Solids Meter for Water Testing Malaysia
The Qiwei SS-500B Portable Suspended Solids Meter is designed for measuring the concentration of insoluble suspended particles in water and transparent liquid samples.
It provides results directly in mg/L, making it suitable for routine water-quality checks, wastewater monitoring and on-site testing throughout Malaysia.
What Does the SS-500B Measure?
Suspended solids are small, insoluble particles carried within water. These particles may include:
Soil and sediment
Organic matter
Industrial residues
Food-processing particles
Wastewater solids
Fine suspended materials
High suspended-solids levels may affect water clarity, treatment efficiency, discharge quality and industrial processes.
The SS-500B helps users perform quick measurements without relying solely on visual water-clarity assessment.
Qiwei SS-500B Main Specifications
Measurement parameter: Suspended Solids
Measurement range: 0500 mg/L
Resolution: 1 mg/L
Power supply: AC power adaptor or five AA batteries
Portable operation: Suitable for field and laboratory use
Sample containers: Two measuring bottles included
Its 0500 mg/L range is suitable for many routine water and wastewater applications where users need a portable instrument for operational checking.
Where Can the SS-500B Be Used?
Wastewater Treatment
Operators can use the SS-500B to check changes in suspended-solids concentration during different stages of treatment.
It is useful for operational screening at:
Influent and effluent points
Sedimentation tanks
Clarification processes
Industrial wastewater outlets
Treatment-process checkpoints
Water-Treatment Plants
Suspended-solids measurement can help water-treatment personnel evaluate water conditions before and after treatment.
The instrument can support routine checks alongside other parameters such as:
Turbidity
pH
Conductivity
Dissolved oxygen
Total dissolved solids
Factory and Industrial Water
Manufacturing facilities may use the SS-500B to monitor water from production, cleaning and wastewater-treatment processes.
Potential industries include:
Chemical processing
Metal treatment
Food and beverage
Pharmaceutical production
General manufacturing
Environmental Monitoring
The portable design allows users to collect and test samples from drains, ponds, rivers and other monitoring locations.
Suspended Solids vs Turbidity
Suspended solids and turbidity are related, but they are not the same measurement.
Turbidity indicates how cloudy the water appears and is normally reported in NTU.
Suspended solids represent the concentration of insoluble particles in the water and are reported in mg/L.
Two samples may have similar turbidity readings but different suspended-solids concentrations because particle size, shape, colour and composition can affect the result.
Customers who need results in mg/L should select a suspended-solids meter instead of relying only on a turbidity meter.
Is the SS-500B Suitable for Compliance Testing?
The SS-500B is useful for rapid operational checks, screening and trend monitoring.
For regulatory reporting or accredited laboratory analysis, users should confirm the required testing method with the relevant authority, consultant or laboratory. Some compliance procedures may require a recognised gravimetric laboratory method.
The portable meter can help users identify changes quickly, but it should not automatically be treated as a replacement for every laboratory TSS method.
How to Improve Measurement Consistency
For more repeatable results:
Collect a representative water sample.
Mix the sample gently so that particles are distributed evenly.
Avoid allowing heavy particles to settle before measurement.
Keep the outside of the measuring bottle clean and dry.
Remove fingerprints, water droplets and dirt from the bottle.
Use the same sample-handling procedure for every test.
Follow the manufacturer’s calibration and operating instructions.
Sample settling, dirty bottles, bubbles and inconsistent sample preparation may cause unstable readings.
Who Should Consider the Qiwei SS-500B?
The SS-500B is suitable for:
Wastewater-treatment operators
Environmental consultants
Factory maintenance teams
Water-treatment contractors
Food-processing facilities
Laboratory personnel
Universities and training centres
Industrial water-management teams
It is particularly useful when a customer needs a portable 0500 mg/L suspended-solids meter for routine field or operational measurements.
