PARAMETER
Turbidity (NTU)
Overview
Real Tech’s Turbidity sensor provides rapid real-time measurement of turbidity or total suspended solids (TSS) in water or wastewater. The 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 turbidity sensor is ideal for many applications from wastewater to high purity water.
- IR optical measurement technology
- Measures turbidity or TSS
- Operator friendly, low maintenance design
- Range for wastewater to high purity water applications
- Ultra low-power consumption
- ISO 7027 compliant
