Certification
EN 55011/CISPR 11 Notification Warning
This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in
which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.
Canadian Radio Interference-Causing Equipment Regulation, IECS-003, Class A:
Supporting test records reside with the manufacturer.
This Class A digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing
Equipment Regulations.
English 5
Cet appareil numérique de classe A répond à toutes les exigences de la réglementation canadienne
sur les équipements provoquant des interférences.
FCC Part 15, Class "A" Limits
Supporting test records reside with the manufacturer. The device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation is subject to the following conditions:
1. The equipment may not cause harmful interference.
2. The equipment must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. This equipment has been tested
and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction
manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to
correct the interference at their expense. The following techniques can be used to reduce
interference problems:
1. Disconnect the equipment from its power source to verify that it is or is not the source of the
interference.
2. If the equipment is connected to the same outlet as the device experiencing interference, connect
the equipment to a different outlet.
3. Move the equipment away from the device receiving the interference.
4. Reposition the receiving antenna for the device receiving the interference.
5. Try combinations of the above.

Product overview
CAUTION
Fire hazard. This product is not designed for use with flammable liquids.
The TL2360 laboratory turbidimeter measures the scattered light from water samples to determine
the turbidity value of the samples. In the ratio-on mode, the instrument uses multiple detectors at
different angles to correct for interferences and to increase the measurement range. In the ratio-off
mode, the instrument uses one detector at a 90-degree angle from the light source. The user can
calibrate the instrument and verify the calibration at regular intervals.
The user interface uses a touch screen display. A printer, USB flash drive or keyboard can connect
to the USB ports. Refer to Figure 1. The real-time clock with battery puts a time-date stamp on all of
the data that is transmitted or recorded (i.e., reading log, calibration log and verification log).

Installation
CAUTION
Multiple hazards. Only qualified personnel must conduct the tasks described in this section of the
document.
This instrument is rated for an altitude of 3100 m (10,710 ft) maximum. Use of this instrument at an
altitude higher than 3100 m can slightly increase the potential for the electrical insulation to break
down, which can result in an electric shock hazard. The manufacturer recommends that users with
concerns contact technical support.
Installation guidelines
Install the instrument:
• On a level surface
• In a clean, dry, well ventilated, temperature controlled location
• In a location with minimum vibrations that has no direct exposure to sunlight
• In a location where there is sufficient clearance around it to make connections and to do
maintenance tasks
• In a location where the power button and power cord are visible and easily accessible
Connect to external devices (optional)
Use the USB ports to connect the instrument to a printer, barcode handset scanner, USB flash drive
or keyboard. Refer to Figure 1 on page 7. The maximum length of a connected USB cable is 3 m
(9.8 ft). As an alternative to the touchscreen, use a keyboard to enter text into text boxes on the
display (e.g., passwords and sample IDs).
8 English
User interface and navigation
The instrument display is a touch screen. Only use a clean, dry finger tip to navigate the functions of
the touch screen. Do not use writing tips of pens or pencils or other sharp objects to make selections
on the screen or damage to the screen will occur.
Refer to Figure 3 for an overview of the home screen.
