Analytical Instrumentation & Environmental Monitoring


Analysis portfolio for water applications

April 2018 Analytical Instrumentation & Environmental Monitoring

Since potable water has become a valuable resource, all stages of water treatment must be monitored effectively and reliably. Applications such as quality/limit value monitoring in waterworks, quality monitoring in distribution networks, filter monitoring and disinfection control all use analytical sensors and systems for automated process control.

Krohne is a leading supplier for process instrumentation as well as inline analytical sensors and systems. The SmartPart series is the most recent innovation for easy handling of analytical sensors: SmartPart pH/ORP and conductivity sensors feature an integrated transmitter for direct 4-20 mA/HART 7 connection to the process control system, and allow for calibration either online (in the field) or offline (in a controlled laboratory environment).

Accessories such as buffer solutions, junction boxes, loop-powered indicators or operating units, together with mounting assemblies (static or insertion) round out the portfolio for one-stop shopping of process analytical sensors.

With the Optisens series, Krohne offers the same sensor types for use with an external transmitter e.g. for existing installations. The product line also features measuring systems for water applications: Optisys CL 1100 is a potentiostatic disinfectant measuring system for free chlorine, chlorine dioxide and ozone. It is used in bypass lines and comes readily mounted, pre-installed and tested with 3 x 4-20 mA outputs, chlorine sensor, valves, flow-through holders and an optional pH sensor.

Optisys TUR 1050 is an optical turbidity measuring system for potable water applications with cost-effective cuvette calibration and an automatic ultrasonic cleaning system. It offers multiple communication options, including 4-wire, 4-20 mA, 2 alarm relays or Modbus via RS-485. It is suitable for use in bypass lines in a range of 0-100 NTU/FNU (optional: 1000 NTU/FNU).

Keeping an eye on invisible radiation
Omniflex Remote Monitoring Specialists Analytical Instrumentation & Environmental Monitoring
At its peak in 1994, the energy generation capacity of the UK’s nuclear power stations was 12,7 GW across 16 plants. In 2024, the capacity has fallen to around 5 GW, and the number of stations is down to nine. However, this is far from the end of the story as spent nuclear fuel remains radioactive for centuries, and requires rigorous safety processes to safeguard against leaks.
