Sludge concentration meter

Sludge concentration meter Utilizes the infrared scattered light method to measure sludge concentration in water. It supports RS485 signal transmission and features anti-interference capabilities, self-cleaning functions, and low drift. Designed for municipal and industrial wastewater monitoring, it ensures stable, round-the-clock water quality data acquisition.

Sludge concentration meter serves as a core online detection device for water quality monitoring and wastewater treatment. Operating on the principle of infrared scattered light, it accurately calculates sludge concentration by measuring the light scattering intensity of suspended sludge particles. It enables continuous, real-time monitoring, effectively replacing the delayed results associated with traditional manual laboratory testing. Equipped with a dedicated infrared LED light source and internal signal isolation technology, the device effectively filters out interference from ambient light, flow fluctuations, and temperature changes, ensuring measurement stability in complex aquatic environments.

Sludge concentration meter offers performance specifications tailored to industrial wastewater monitoring needs. It features a standard measurement range of 0 to 20.000 g/L with a resolution of 0.001 g/L and an accuracy of ±5%. Supporting a two-point calibration mode, it allows for precise calibration based on site-specific water conditions to meet various monitoring standards. The device is highly adaptable, featuring low power consumption (only 0.7W during normal operation) and compatibility with 12–24V DC industrial power supplies common in wastewater treatment sites. Additionally, it includes an intelligent automatic cleaning function—with user-configurable cleaning intervals and frequency—to prevent biofouling and contamination on the optical window. This significantly reduces the need for manual maintenance and ensures the stability of long-term monitoring data.

In terms of structural design and installation, Sludge concentration meter utilizes a housing made of glass and 316L stainless steel, offering corrosion and aging resistance suitable for various corrosive wastewater environments. With an IP68 waterproof rating, the device operates stably in submerged or humid conditions over the long term, ensuring an extended service life. The sensor features a 3/4 NPT threaded body design and supports immersion-style installation, allowing for direct deployment in sewage tanks, drainage pipes, pressurized pipelines, and natural water bodies; installation is simple and convenient, requiring no complex construction procedures. Widely used in municipal sewage and industrial wastewater treatment, the sensor provides real-time monitoring of activated sludge concentration during biochemical treatment, delivering precise data to support process optimization and enabling refined water quality management.
