Model FNW-522
Turbidity Monitoring Device (Stationary Type)
This device minimizes the impact of the suspended solids color on the measurement through the use of the transmitted/scattered light calculation method.
This method eliminates variations due to unevenness of the suspended solids. This device employs wiper-type automatic washing that operates every hour on the glass surface that uses an optical lens, completely removing dirt and air bubbles.
Features
- Transmitted scattered light method is not strongly affected by particle diameter or color
- Light flux monitoring function performs self-control of light source intensity
- The only light-concentrating system in Japan that uses an optical lens
- Waterproof technology enables wipers to operate even at depths of 300 m
- Wiper washing mechanism prevents filth from sticking to the device rather than removing it after it has already become stuck
- Accuracy of ±2 NTU even for the normal river turbidity range
- Thermistor enables water temperature accuracy of ±0.1˚C
