Description

  • Diffused-light measurement
  • Compensation for outside light sources
  • Infrared measuring system
  • High-precision fibre-optics
  • Wide linear measuring range
  • High measurement sensitivity
  • Designed for online measurement operations
  • Measurement sensor can be sterilised or treated in an autoclave
  • Biologically inert
  • Reproducible readings
  • Applications: cell-density and growth curves in a fermenter or bioreactor, flocculation,turbidity, crystallisation monitoring, filter monitoring, detection of solids
  • Measuring principle: The regulated IR transmitter produces infrared radiation in the fibre-optic transmission line (1) and emits it, via the sensor, into the medium from two sides. High-precision reception optics (2) is used to measure the returning IR radiation at the fibre-optic reception element (3).
