Turbidity & Suspended Solids Sensors (Endress+Hauser)
Turbidity and suspended solids sensors measure the clarity and particle concentration of liquids, making them essential for water treatment, wastewater monitoring, filtration control, mining slurries and industrial processes. Endress+Hauser offers robust optical sensors designed for accurate measurement in clean water, dirty water and high‑solids applications.
What Turbidity & Suspended Solids Sensors Are Designed For
These sensors are used to measure:
- Turbidity (NTU) – clarity of water
- Suspended solids (mg/L or g/L) – particle concentration
- Sludge concentration in wastewater
- Filter performance and breakthrough detection
- Mining slurry density (optical correlation)
They are widely used in both low‑turbidity drinking water and high‑solids industrial processes.
