tailor-made device for mobile water analysis
The PF‑12Plus compact photometer is a tailor‑made instrument for mobile water analysis, which is used to evaluate VISOCOLOR® ECO, VISOCOLOR® Powder Pillows, NANOCOLOR® ECO and NANOCOLOR® tube tests.
The icon‑based user guidance and the clear task bar turn the PF‑12Plus into a user friendly, easy and intuitively operated photometer for all scope of applications in water and waste water analysis without the need for extensive training. The delivery is carried out in a robust case, equipped with helpful accessories, allowing for an analysis directly at the point of interest.

An 860 nm LED enables the nephelometric turbidity measurement in the range of 1–1000 NTU. This feature allows for the well established NTU‑Check of our MACHEREY‑NAGEL spectrophotometers now also on the PF‑12Plus; a big PLUS in terms of safe measurement results. In addition turbidity in transmitted light, between 4 – 350 FAU, can be determined.
The GLP‑conform data, stored after each measurement, can be transferred conveniently to the PC via the NANOCOLOR® data export software and evaluated with the PC‑standard software.
Due to its compact size and the robust and waterproof housing, the PF‑12Plus fits perfectly for measurements directly at the sampling site. Using the USB interface, the device can be updated with new tests and methods very quickly.
The PF-12Plus is applicable in all fields of water and waste water analysis and has nephelometric turbidity measurement and NTU‑Check!

Unboxing
The PF-12Plus photometer is delivered in a robust case equipped with helpful accessories, which makes the device particularly popular for on-site analysis. With the supplied batteries and screwdriver, the device is immediately ready for use.
Optionally, the PF-12Plus can be equipped with a battery pack (REF 919201).
Did you know?
The PF‑12Plus can be used even under the toughest conditions.
As the only photometer in its class, the PF‑12Plus meets the strict requirement of Regulation MIL‑STD 8100 (Test regulation 514.2).
Getting started
Before using the device for the first time, read the manual and familiarize yourself with all the functions of the device. To put the PF-12Plus into operation, first insert the batteries that are included in the scope of delivery into the battery compartment on the back of the photometer. The battery compartment can be opened using the supplied screwdriver. After inserting the batteries, the device is ready for use. A few seconds after switching on, the start screen for entering the method appears.
The compact photometer PF-12Plus enables the evaluation of colorimetric tests in a 16 mm tube test. Test selection is easy with just three clicks by entering the test number or by selecting the test from the menu. Follow the instructions on the display of the device and you will get high-precision measurement results clearly presented.
Colorimetric VISOCOLOR® ECO tests consist of single reagents which offer the possibility to compensate turbidity and color of water samples. This allows high sensitivity and accuracy to be achieved.
An evaluation with the photometer PF‑12Plus enables a quantitative evaluation of the test kit.
VISOCOLOR® Powder Pillows are photometric tests that combine easiest dosing of reagents with photometric precision. Each VISOCOLOR® Powder Pillows contains the exact amount of reagents needed for a determination. The individually packaged portions not only stand out due to their very long shelf life, but also avoid the use of hazardous substances wherever possible.
NANOCOLOR® tube tests for photometric analysis convince by their easy handling. A maximum in accuracy and precision is granted for the measurement results due to exactly pre‑dosed reagents in 16 mm cuvettes and additional reagents.
The tests are preprogrammed in the PF‑12Plus photometer. All NANOCOLOR® tube tests are delivered in stable boxes, which provide a perfect protection from sunlight and convenient withdrawal of test tubes and reagents.
