Suspended solids monitor S series

Quadbeam sensors incorporate engineering improvements to eliminate water ingress and withstand the rapid temperature cycling which occurs during CIP cleaning cycles. By design the sensors automatically compensate for component ageing, sensor fouling and daylight interference. The Quadbeam TM Alternating light principle is based on a fundamental method of suspended solids measurement by shining a light of known intensity a fixed distance through a medium at a photocell detector. Suspended solids in the medium attenuate some of the light. The detector current gives a measure of the attenuation that corresponds to suspended solids and turbidity measurement. The sensors are available with different sensitivity levels and measuring ranges by changing the distances between the light sources and detectors. The S series of Suspended solids sensors are available as Immersion or Hygienic style sensors. The immersion sensors are designed for continuous on-line monitoring of Suspended Solids in industrial and municipal water and waste water treatment plants, mining and refining operations. The Hygienic style sensors are designed for installation directly into food product lines where CIP cleaning is used. The one-piece Polypropylene construction with a surface finish of better than 0.9 µm Ra eliminates bacteria traps. The sensors have an industry standard triclover connection. High temperature Immersion and Hygienic versions of the Suspended solids sensors are available. These sensors are manufactured from PVDF with a maximum working temperature of 105º C.
