Automatic Temperature Compensation COD Sensor - AMT-COD300

Automatic Temperature Compensation COD Sensor

Changes in water temperature directly affect UV detection accuracy. This COD sensor features a built-in high-precision temperature sensing module and an intelligent temperature compensation algorithm to correct temperature deviations in real time. It also integrates dynamic turbidity compensation, effectively mitigating the impact of sediment and suspended solids on detection data, delivering accurate and stable COD monitoring data in both high and low temperatures and turbid water.

1. Working Principle

Based on LambertBeer's Law: aromatic and conjugated organic matter in water has254nm Ultraviolet light has characteristic absorption; the higher the concentration of organic matter, the more ultraviolet light is absorbed.

Dual-beam light source: one path of 254nm ultraviolet light is used to detect organic matter; one path of visible light / UV reference light, specifically corrects turbidity and color interference.

The sensor detects the light intensity after light passes through the water sample, calculates absorbance, and converts it through built-in calibration algorithms to obtain COD value, and can also convert and output BOD、TOCand permanganate index and other indirect parameters.

Integrated temperature sensor for automatic temperature compensation; most are equipped with motorized self-cleaning brushes to remove sludge and biofilm attachments on the measurement window, reducing drift.

Supplementary note: There are also a few intelligent sensors that use small-scale chemical digestion methods, which require reagent consumption, have larger volumes, and higher operation and maintenance costs. The vast majority of intelligent probes on the market use UV optical methods.

2. Main Features

No chemical reagents required, no secondary pollution

No hazardous reagents such as potassium dichromate, concentrated sulfuric acid, or mercury sulfate are used, no toxic waste liquid is produced, significantly reducing consumables and hazardous waste disposal costs.

Second-level rapid measurement,24h Continuous online

A few seconds to30 Outputs a set of data per second, enabling high-frequency continuous monitoring, suitable for capturing sudden water quality changes and overflow pollution peaks; traditional national standard chemical methods require tens of minutes to 2 hours, only intermittent detection possible.

Intelligent compensation and anti-interference

Dual-wavelength algorithm automatically compensates for turbidity, color, temperature, and optical path aging attenuation, adapting to high-turbidity and complex water bodies such as rivers and sewage.

Built-in self-cleaning, low maintenance requirements

Built-in motorized cleaning brush periodically and automatically wipes the optical window, reducing biological fouling and scaling, extending the calibration cycle, suitable for unattended field stations.

Digital intelligent output, easy to connect to IoT

RS485Modbus RTU as standard interface, some support 420mA Analog; built-in chip completes signal processing, data storage, and fault self-diagnosis, and can be directly connected to data acquisition instruments, environmental platforms, buoy monitoring stations, andPLC control systems, supporting remote data viewing.

Hardware protection

IP68 Fully waterproof,316L Stainless Steel / Titanium alloy shell, can be immersed in water for long periods, resistant to sewage corrosion.
