Abstract

A meter for measuring the turbidity of a fluid includes a light source for directing a light beam through a fluid under test towards a reflective surface and a sensor for detecting light reflected from the reflective surface and passing back through the fluid under test. The meter outputs a signal indicative of the turbidity of the fluid under test.
