Frequently Asked Questions
What measurement method does the turbidity sensor use?
The turbidity sensor uses the 90° infrared light scattering method, which measures the intensity of light scattered at a right angle to the incident beam. This approach minimizes interference from color and ambient light, providing highly accurate turbidity readings.
What are the available measurement ranges for this turbidity sensor?
The sensor is available in two range models: LMS-TUR10L covers 0–100 NTU for low-turbidity applications such as drinking water, while LMS-TUR10H covers 0–3000 NTU for higher-turbidity environments such as wastewater treatment or industrial processes.
What communication protocol does the turbidity sensor support?
The sensor outputs data via RS-485 using the MODBUS protocol, making it easy to integrate with PLCs, data loggers, water quality controllers, and SCADA systems commonly used in industrial and environmental monitoring applications.
Is the turbidity sensor suitable for outdoor or sunlight-exposed installations?
Yes. The sensor features a sunlight-resistant design with advanced fiber-optic light paths and temperature compensation algorithms, enabling stable and reliable performance even under direct sunlight or in open-air outdoor environments.
What material is the sensor housing made of, and is it suitable for harsh environments?
The sensor housing is constructed from 316L stainless steel, which provides excellent resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and saltwater. This makes it highly suitable for demanding environments including industrial wastewater, marine applications, and chemical processing facilities.
Can the turbidity sensor be used alongside other water quality sensors in the same system?
Absolutely. The sensor is part of a comprehensive RS-485 MODBUS digital sensor lineup that includes DO, pH, ORP, EC/TDS, COD, TSS, ammonia nitrogen, chlorophyll, and many more parameters. Multiple sensors can be connected on the same RS-485 bus for multi-parameter water quality monitoring systems.
