With increasing legislation and environmental demands, accurate measurement and control of wastewater parameters is essential for the treatment of effluents to reduce the impact of industry on the environment.
The simplest and most useful of these is pH, the measurement of acidity and alkalinity of the solution. pH is one of the most common analytical measurements used in process control as many chemical reactions rely on the pH of a process being maintained at the correct value. By using accurate pH measurement it is possible to automate and improve the efficiency of a process minimising waste and reducing costs.
pH instrumentation and sensors used to monitor the effluent from a factory can identify if the effluent requires treatment before it is discharged within the required consent levels. This minimises the effects of the waste on the environment ensuring operators comply with local legislation and laws.
LTH provide pH equipment for use in many industries including metal finishing, biotechnology, municipal and industrial waste water.
The 9000 series pH & Redox sensors are designed for direct installation into a pipe or in the wall of a tank for continuous pH or Redox monitoring and control. These sensors have a large non-clogging peripheral reference junction, which is constructed in annular form around the sensing electrode.
The 9000 series sensors have a Kynar body with a 0.5” NPT male threaded process connection and must always be installed at least 15 ° above horizontal for correct operation.
