APERA INSTRUMENTS / T500-1 / AI4205

Four nonzero standards.
The right set, kept sealed.

T500-1 is the accessory-only AMCO polymer standard set for the Apera TN420 and TN500 white-light turbidity meters. One sealed, prefilled vial is supplied at each of 20, 100, 400 and 800 NTU.

This is not a meter, not the complete five-point meter-kit standard package and not a zero-standard refill. The infrared TN480 specifies T200-1 instead. Choose by exact meter compatibility, not by concentration labels alone.

The complete TN420/TN500 meter kits include a zero standard as well as nonzero standards. This replacement accessory is different: it supplies only the four values above. T500-2 is a separately listed zero refill, not part of T500-1.

Compatibility follows the optics,
not just the number on the cap.

Compatible instrument: TN420

View TN420 white-light meter. T500-1 is its documented nonzero replacement set.

Compatible instrument: TN500

View TN500 white-light meter. The exact meter manual and current accessory page identify this pairing.

Different set: TN480

The TN480 infrared model specifies T200-1. Do not assume a shared list of nominal values makes this white-light set interchangeable.

KEEP THE NONZERO VIALS SEALED

A measurement standard.
Not a pourable solution bottle.

The exact product labels and compatible meter manuals instruct users not to open the nonzero standard vials. Do not dilute, decant or transfer their contents to another vial. The opening/refill instructions for a zero-standard vial are a different procedure.

Keep the optical path clean

Protect against fingerprints, smudges, scratches and excess oil. Follow the meter instructions for vial indexing and exterior preparation.

Avoid bubbles

Normally use AMCO directly. After prolonged disuse, follow the exact meter’s gentle-inversion/waiting guidance. Vigorous shaking is not the preparation method.

Read the expiration label.
Protect the stored standards.

The compatible meter manuals specify 5-30 °C storage for calibration solutions. Protect from sunlight and never freeze. Check the date printed on the vial bottom and replace expired standards.

No fixed remaining shelf life at shipment is promised on this page. Generic opened-bottle marketing is not permission to open these sealed nonzero vials, and the zero solution has a different replacement/storage routine.

Documentation belongs to the item and lot.

A lot-specific certificate cannot be selected from a product name alone. Keep the item and lot identifiers from the supplied standards and ask Blue Tiger Scientific to confirm matching documentation availability for the ordered lot.

A generic concentration-level safety sheet is not a lot certificate or proof of meter compatibility. No exact stock-lot certificate is implied by this listing. The instrument manuals below explicitly cover calibration/handling and list T500-1 as a replacement accessory; they are not a dedicated T500-1 manual.

T500-1 buying and workflow questions

What exactly is included in T500-1 AI4205?

Four sealed, prefilled AMCO standard vials: one each at 20, 100, 400 and 800 NTU. No turbidity meter, sample-vial set or zero standard is included.

Is T500-1 compatible with TN480?

The manufacturer specifies this set for TN420/TN500 white-light meters. TN480/TN400 infrared models specify T200-1. No universal cross-model or cross-brand compatibility is established merely because the nominal values match.

Can I open the vials or pour standards into other containers?

No. The exact nonzero-vial instructions and product labels say not to open them. These are sealed measurement standards, not pourable refill bottles. Do not dilute or decant them.

Is 0 NTU included with this replacement set?

No. The complete TN420/TN500 meter kits include zero, but T500-1 contains only 20/100/400/800 NTU. A separately listed T500-2 zero refill is a different item; it is not part of this order.

What is the fill volume of each standard vial?

An exact per-vial volume is not established by the current kit sources. The 18 mL meter sample-test volume is not a verified T500-1 package-volume specification. Order this item as the four sealed standards, not as bulk milliliters.

How should the set be stored and when does it expire?

Keep calibration standards at 5-30 °C according to the compatible meter manuals, protect from sunlight and never freeze. Read the expiration date on the vial bottom and replace expired standards. No fixed remaining shelf life at delivery is promised here.

Is a lot-specific certificate included or available?

No exact lot certificate has been verified for the stock offered on this page. Item and lot numbers are required to identify matching documentation. Ask Blue Tiger Scientific to confirm availability for the ordered lot rather than assuming a generic solution sheet is its certificate.

Does buying AMCO standards make my method EPA compliant?

No. The manufacturer’s AMCO primary-standard positioning does not certify your meter, procedure or laboratory. Use the exact instrument-specific set and the standards, checks and reporting requirements of the applicable method.

Confirm the method.
Choose the exact configuration.

Review T500-1 AI4205 and return to the live price and ordering controls. Ask Blue Tiger Scientific to clarify the exact configuration, method or documentation requirements before ordering.
