Sensor
Measuring Principle of the Relative Turbidity Meter
An infrared diode irradiates infrared light into the media. Particles in the media Receiver
reflecting the irradiated light which is detected by the receiver diode (backscatter Sender
principle). The electronics calculates the relative turbidity of the media according
to the received signal.
The relative turbidity is based on the Negele calibration standard and is displayed
in “%TU”.

·· With an external control voltage (24 V DC) range 2 can be

selected (E1 = 24 V DC).

Switching the Measurement Range flow direction

·· The digital control input E1 is galvanically isolated from
the power supply. Ground: clamp 9 (0 V)

E1* Measurement Range Note

0 1 (factory setting: 0...100 %) Select suitable measurement range in applications with
1 2 (factory setting: 0...10 %) high turbidity variances (e.g. milk / milk water mixture)

Calibration

Device is calibrated ex works. A periodical calibration is not neccessary. A calibration check can be performed on site by
using the calibration check tool. For detailed description please refer to the manual.

Turbidity Diagram

Depending on particle form and size, the slope of the characteristic curve is decreasing while turbidity is increasing.
This is primarily caused by dampening / absorption effects due to multiple reflections inside the media.
The turbidity measured in the production process can deviate from the graphs shown above, depending on
product, process step and production process.
