HU-200SS

Field-installation type MLSS meter

Ideal for measuring samples with high turbidity

An MLSS meter that is ideal for measuring samples with high turbidity. The sensor is designed for stable measurements and ease of maintenance. Furthermore, when combined with an ultrasonic cleaner, issues are minimized facilitating ease of maintenance.

Division: Process Water
Manufacturing Company: HORIBA Advanced Techno Co., Ltd.

Stable measurement

This sensor features a long-life LED light source.  Automatically compensating for fluctuations in light intensity through a built-in reference light monitor.

Designed for ease of maintenance

Using a transmitted light type sensor that does not require span calibration.  Additionally, the sensor head is made of PFA resin in order to prevent contamination.

Combined with an ultrasonic cleaner

The ultrasonic cleaner has no moving parts (wipers), making it less prone to trouble, eliminating the need for periodic replacements.  Furthermore, it features a burst oscillation and sweep function, enhancing cleaning power.
