Product Description
Digital Optical IR Suspended Solids Sensor Overview
This IP68-rated digital suspended solids sensor utilizes infrared absorption technology at 870 nm wavelength with a 5mm optical path. The sensor provides precise measurements for suspended solids (g/L), turbidity (FAU), and sludge blanket detection (% IR transmission). Temperature-regulated optics ensure measurement accuracy across various operating conditions.
Measurement Capabilities
For suspended solids measurement, the sensor is directly calibrated using actual sludge samples. In turbidimeter configuration, it measures from 0-4000 FAU (Formazine Attenuation Unit) using Formazine calibration solutions.
Industrial Applications
- Urban wastewater treatment: Inlet/sewage water (SS, Turbidity), Aeration basin (SS), Outlet (Turbidity)
- Industrial effluent treatment: Aeration basin (SS), Clarifier (Sludge blanket), Outlet (Turbidity)
- Sludge treatment: Centrifugation processes
- Dredging site monitoring: Turbidity measurement
Key Advantages
- Optical sensor based on absorptiometry principle
- Integrated data storage for calibration and history
- Digital communication via Modbus RS485 protocol
- Compatible with all standard industrial devices
- Robust construction for demanding environments
