Turbidity sensor for immersion installation, for nephelometric turbidity measures.
Measuring system includes a light source and a light receiver. The emitted light beam hits the liquid surface and is scattered by the suspended particles in the sample.
The scattered light is measured at 90° (light scattering 90°); the intensity of this scattering is proportional to suspended solid content in the sample. This system is based on a single light beam and is called 'nephelometric'. Measuring units are NTU (Nephelometric Turbidity Units).
Nephelometric cells Mod.702A and 702B are powered by a highly stabilized source so that emitted light is perfectly constant even with power mains variations of +/- 15%.
The light source is a IRED diode (880 nm). The light receiver is a silicon photodiode.
Mod.702B probe is supplied c/with the hydraulic system for chemical cleaning; the cleaning sequence is directly driven by the uP electronic unit.
Sensor body is PVC, 42 mm diameter, 600, 1000, 1500 mm lengths.
A sliding flange, DN32, is supplied for probe installation.
Measuring range: 0-2 / 2000 NTU
Allowed immersion depth: 10-1500 mm, according to selected probe length
Flow direction: any flow direction is accepted; the sample must be free of bubbles.
Probe mounting: in a vertical position
