The LINKSENS UV254 COD sensor is an optical-based absorption and transmittance with UV LED and PD technology sensor. The sensor measures the absorption at UV 254nm, blue, green, and red light.Simultaneously to compensate the SAC measurement for interferences from turbidity and color.
● 4 wavelength absorption measurement: UV and Vis for turbidity and color compensation.
● SAC measurement used to determine organic loading without reagents.
● Measurement directly in the process, no sample processing or reagent required.
● Fast response, minimum 10 second.
● Cold light source (UV LED) and rugged PD, long life time and low drift.
● Support leakage alarm
Note:
1,TOC and BOD are calculated from COD, SS and turbidity is from SAC of Vis and IR.
