FAQ
What is a turbidity analyzer used for?
A turbidity analyzer measures water clarity and suspended particles, commonly used in wastewater treatment, industrial processes, and environmental monitoring.
What does NTU measure?
NTU (Nephelometric Turbidity Units) indicates the level of light scattering caused by particles in water, helping determine water quality.
Can this turbidity analyzer integrate with SCADA systems?
Yes, the 6308TuSS supports 4–20 mA and RS485 Modbus outputs for seamless integration with SCADA, PLCs, and data logging systems.
What is the difference between inline and online turbidity monitoring systems?
An inline turbidity sensor is installed directly inside a pipe or process line, measuring turbidity continuously as fluid flows past the sensor.
An online turbidity analyzer measures turbidity using a diverted sample stream (via a flow cell or chamber), rather than directly in the main pipe.
