Introduction
Turbidity measurement
The high-precision fibre optics used by the Aquasant turbidity measurement device make it especially suitable for providing reliable online measurement functions. The range of applications includes such areas as biotechnology, the pharmaceuticals and chemicals industry and food sector, and the monitoring of water quality.
The turbidity-measurement sensors can be sterilised and/or treated in an autoclave.
Our turbidity-measurement device displays the following features and performance characteristics.
| Features | Performance characteristics |
| Highly-sensitive measurement of diffused light | Requires only one measuring point, in contrast to conventional measuring devices. This ensures maximum reliability. |
| Designed for carrying out measurements while the process is in progress. | Saves on costly lab analyses. |
| Compensation for outside light sources | Error compensation for measurement readings is no longer required. |
| IR measuring technology | Long service life of device. |
| Wide linear measuring range. | Precise, high-resolution measurement readings. |
| All operating controls located on front panel | Clear and simple to use. |
| Easy operation. | Self-explanatory operating controls. |
| Fibre optics | Loss-free measurement readings of maximum quality. |
| Straightforward sensor installation. | Efficient operation at different measuring points. |
| Transmission and reception optics at same level. | Maximum measuring precision. |
| Measurement sensor can be sterilised or treated in an autoclave. | Suitable for lab-based, food-industry and medical applications, etc. |
The main areas of application of the turbidity measurement device lie in cell-density measurement, crystallisation monitoring, filtration monitoring, detection of solids, quality testing and flocculation monitoring.
