PARAMETER
Turbidity (NTU)
Overview
Real Tech’s Turbidity sensor uses a low-cost optical technology for low maintenance operation with no consumables. The measurement principle is based on IR nephelometry / 850 nm and can be easily calibrated with a formazine standard solution. The compact and robust sensor is ideal for many applications from wastewater to high purity.
- IR optical sensor
- 0 to 4000 NTU or 0-4500 mg/L
- Robust and waterproof (IP68)
- Ultra low-power consumption
- Nephelometry measurement
