Overview
Real Tech’s PL series UV-VIS spectrum sensor combines high wavelength resolution with the power of a deuterium light source to offer unmatched accuracy and sensitivity for the parameters and compounds that are important you. The bypass style sensor provides real-time, continuous scanning of the entire UV-VIS spectrum between 190-750 nm.
Benefiting from Real Tech’s innovative Split-Sense Pro technology, the sensor provides stable and reliable measurement. Compatible with various accessories, the sensor can be packaged to meet the demands of many water and wastewater monitoring applications. The Spectrum sensor must be connected to the Real Controller Pro for operation. See Controller and Accessories tab for selections.
- Single or multiple parameter configuration available
- Full scanning system (190-750 nm)
- High accuracy and repeatable
- Reagentless operation
- Split-Sense Pro technology improves reliability
