The SMART Turbidity monitor accurately analyses the cloudiness of a fluid and outputs the turbidity value in NTU.
Overwiew
Measuring the turbidity of water is a critical component of oil-in-water monitoring, ensuring compliance with stringent marine environmental regulations.
By utilising the “Smart Cell” Detector Array Technology, developed by Rivertrace, the monitor accurately analyses the quality of the sample stream and outputs the turbidity value in nephelometer turbidity units (NTU) Turbidity is the cloudiness or haziness of a fluid caused by large numbers of individual particles.
A manual cell cleaning device is included as standard to easily enable routine maintenance and prevent Optical cell fouling which is recognised as a leading cause of monitor malfunction or incorrect reading. By simple operation of the manual cleaning device, the measuring cell remains in optimum operating condition.
Replacement calibrated measuring cells can be purchased for easy change over and calibration verification kits enable the user to demonstrate the monitor is within factory calibration.
The Smart Turbidity Monitor is also available for Hazardous area Environments classified as Zone 1 & 2.
Applications
- Sewage Treatment Plant Effluent Monitor
- Brewing Quality Monitor
- Groundwater Effluent
