Turbidity and suspended solids probe for use in Triclamp piping systems
The TSS XL sc is a digital process probe for the extremely accurate in pipe measurement of turbidity and suspended solids specially designed for use in beverage industries. This in pipe probe is installed by XL weld-on fitting and can measure both on-line suspended solids and turbidity in one instrument. The two channel 90° scattered light turbidity method is in accordance with DIN EN ISO 7027. For the determination of suspended solids a scattered light measurement method at 120 ° is integrated. This eight channel measurement system, with an integrated bubble and temperature compensating software, enables the instrument to have a wide measuring range. The TSS XL sc probes are compatible with the Hach SC200 and SC1000 controller platform. Furthermore, they are made of polished stainless steel with a scratch resistant and easy to clean sapphire window design to withstand harsh environments.
Measures online suspended solids in virtually all applications under the strictest regulatory conditions
TSS sc probes measure online suspended solids from spring water to corrosive chemicals under the strictest regulatory conditions. With 8 different probe models with several mounting options, it is possible to measure suspended solids over a wide range of concentrations with just one probe.
Unique Multi-Beam Pulsed Infrared Light System
TSS sc probes have a double optical system with two pulsating infrared LEDs and four receivers. This combined multiple beam alternating light method with beam focusing facilitates accurate color independent measurement of turbidity from 0.001 to 4,000 FNU and suspended solids from 0.001 to 500 g/L.
Automatic Compensation for Air Bubbles and Temperature Swings for Accuracy
Special software gives the system the ability to recognize gas bubbles or temperature swings for a more accurate suspended solids or turbidity measurement.
Standard-Compliant and Precise with Easy Calibration
The turbidity measurement complies with the standard DIN EN 27027 (ISO 7027). Calibration is not necessary. If the probe is used to measure the solids content, a one-point calibration suffices. For special applications, curves can be defined using several calibration points.
Withstands Difficult Conditions and Harsh Environments
Probes are made of highly polished stainless steel or titanium with a scratch resistant sapphire window. They are designed to withstand harsh environments and keep particles from sticking to the surface.
