Insite IG Model 3150 Portable Suspended Solids Analyzer

The InsiteIG Model 3150 portable suspended solids analyzer is a state of the art, easy to use meter that provides many benefits to the plant operations staff.

It is a unique system that combines advanced electronics with a solid-state, optical sensor.  It is a multi-range analyzer designed for the measurement of suspended solids in aqueous solutions.  The microprocessor-based electronics of the analyzer provide a high degree of flexibility and ease of use.  Data logging and the ability to download the data directly to a computer are optional features.

• Real-time SS for better process control

• Eliminates the need for daily lab analysis

• Data logging with direct downloading to your PC

• Can also be used to measure sludge blankets in clarifiers

The Model 3150 analayzer uses the Model 35 sensor which operates on the principal of single gap light absorption as the means of determining the concentration of suspended solids.  The sensor was specifically designed for solids concentrations typically found in aeration basins (1000 mg/L to 5000 mg/L) and RAS streams (7000 mg/L to 20,000 mg/L) of wastewater treatment plants.  There are independent calibration points for each.  Furthermore, a 35L low range sensor (0-1000 mg/L) is available.  The Model 35L sensor was designed to measure very  low solids concentrations typically found in secondary clarifier and plant effluents. The sensor utilizes an infrared emitter to minimize colour effects and compensates for emitter variations due to temperature by measuring source brightness.
