Standard
800 NTU
Use class A volume pipette and glass flasks.
Use dilution water for the < 0.1 NTU standard.

Indexing and matching sample vials

Matched sample vials are required to minimise the effects of optical variation from glass vial
to glass vial. Alternatively an indexed single sample vial can be used for every measurement.
Once vial orientation in the sample chamber is located, always use this new orientation mark
for all measurements independent of the white pre-printed triangle mark.
