Water Turbidity Sensor: A Comprehensive Overview
A water turbidity sensor, also known as a water turbidity probe, is a crucial tool in modern water quality monitoring. It measures the number or concentration of suspended particles in water, primarily relying on the principle of light scattering or light transmission. As light passes through water containing suspended particles, some of it is scattered or absorbed, resulting in changes in light intensity. These changes are captured by a photodetector within the sensor and converted into electrical signals. By applying a specific algorithm, the turbidity value of the water can be accurately determined.
Key Characteristics and Principles
The working principle of a water turbidity sensor is based on the interaction between light and matter. The sensor measures the intensity change of transmitted or scattered light and calculates the turbidity value through a specific algorithm. It is characterized by high accuracy, strong real-time monitoring capabilities, intelligence, and durability.
Wide Range of Applications
Water turbidity sensors are widely used in various areas, including environmental monitoring, industrial production, and household appliances. In environmental monitoring, they are used to monitor changes in water quality in natural water bodies and assess the degree of water pollution. In industrial production, they ensure product quality by monitoring the water quality used in the production process. In household appliances, they detect the turbidity of detergent to determine the washing effect and adjust the washing program.
Technological Trends and Advancements
With the continuous advancement of technology, water turbidity sensors are evolving towards higher accuracy and intelligence. They are becoming more portable and emphasizing environmental sustainability, standardization, and internationalization. By optimizing the sensor structure and algorithm, effective detection of suspended particles at lower concentrations can be achieved, which helps to detect water quality problems earlier.
Daruifuno's Offerings
As a supplier and manufacturer of high-quality water turbidity sensors and probes, Daruifuno offers sensors that provide reliable monitoring solutions for water clarity across various industries. The OPTU851Z online water turbidity sensor has a built-in software to measure both suspended solids and turbidity, with a measuring range of 0.014000NTU for turbidity and 03000mg/L for suspended solids. Customers can decide whether to monitor turbidity or solid suspension based on their needs. When paired with the DUC2-TU online controller, it can display both the turbidity value and the value of suspended solids.
Importance of Turbidity Monitoring
Monitoring turbidity using an online water turbidity sensor can provide information about suspended matter in the water, which helps to determine the source of the water and the nature of the pollutants. It can also trace the source of water pollution and take appropriate treatment measures.
