TurbiLux Turbidity Fluorometer
|
TurbiLux is a sensitive, low cost digital IR turbidity sensor designed for compliancy with ISO 7027:1999 standard that offers the user significantly increased functionality when compared to existing turbidity sensors. TurbiLux can be deployed in a wide range of applications including flow-through systems for process monitoring and in-situ deployments in rivers, lakes and oceans. The TurbiLux has an acetal resin housing suitable for deploying independently as well as from submersible vehicles, moored or profiling systems.

- Description
The TurbiLux is a sensitive, low cost digital IR turbidity sensor designed for compliancy with ISO 7027:1999 standard that offers the user significantly increased functionality when compared to existing turbidity sensors. The TurbiLux can be deployed in a wide range of applications including flow-through systems for process monitoring and in-situ deployments in rivers, lakes and oceans.
The TurbiLux has an acetal resin housing suitable for deploying independently as well as from submersible vehicles, moored or profiling systems. This robust, compact, lightweight turbidity sensor has very low power consumption, is easy to use and gives accurate and repeatable measurements.
The turbidity sensor utilizes an IR LED light source and photodiode which combined with phase sensitive detection, provides highly sensitive measurement capabilities. Sophisticated electronic signal processing, enables the TurbiLux to operate successfully in high levels of ambient light when deployed in-situ. For process control and laboratory use, a flow through manifold is available.Two signals can be obtained from the standard TurbiLux: the first is a digital RS232 output in engineering units, the second a 0V to 5V volt calibrated analogue output derived from the digital signal. Single RS422 and SDI-12 outputs are also available as options. This flexibility makes the TurbiLux suitable for integrating into many different systems and platforms.
A Windows based Graphical User Interface (GUI) is provided that allows the user to both plot and record time stamped data when operating the TurbiLux directly from a PC and gives control over a many instrument parameters, including: sampling rate, sensitivity, dynamic range and calibration factors.
