optek - Model AS16-N -Single Channel Turbidity Probe
High precision probe for direct installation into pipelines and vessels measuring NIR light absorption (turbidity) of various liquid samples. The optical path length can be individually configured to meet the process control requirements with the highest accuracy.
The AS16-N is a precision absorption probe, which is designed for direct installation into pipelines and vessels and provides accurate concentration measurements with remarkable repeatability, linearity and resolution. A wide selection of different optical path lengths and insertion depths combined with optional calibration filters and electro-polished stainless steel housing meet all requirements of the biotechnology industry.
The AS16-N uses light from 730-970 nm to measure solids concentration independent from color or color changes.
