Überblick

Der OBS300 ist ein versenkbarere Trübungssensor mit nach unten weisender Optik. Er verwendet die OBS® um suspendierten Festkörper und Trübung in z.B. Flüssen und Strömen zu messen. Er wird zur Bestimmung der Wasserqualität, zur Erforschung des Sedimenttransports oder zur Überwachung von Ausbaggerungen eingesetzt. 

Der OBS300 wird direkt mit einem Campbell Scientific Datenlogger verbunden und berechnet dann die Trübung.

Technische Beschreibung

The OBS300 uses its downward-facing optics to emit a near-infrared light into the water. It then measures the light that bounces back from the water’s suspended particles.

If an obstruction is in the emitted light’s range, the light will scatter back and the turbidity reading will be too high. This probe's downward-facing optics avoid obstructions around the sides of the probe. The OBS-3+ is available for locations that have obstructions above and below the probe.

  1. Typically, users use a clamp (a hose clamp, for example) to fasten the sensor to a permanent structure in the water so that the optics are orientated toward the open water.

  2. The OBS-3+ or OBS300 provides two separate outputs to match the two turbidity ranges selected at the time of purchase. Use the curve that matches the turbidity range likely to be experienced during monitoring. Program the datalogger to record and store data from each output, or choose which output to use automatically depending on the turbidity.

  3. Yes. The OBS300 is not harmed by being dry. The optics, however, need to be cleaned of any dust or contamination before the measurements are resumed.

  4. Sensors are calibrated at the factory for measurements up to 4,000 NTUs, if requested at the time of order. Sensor ranges cannot be adjusted outside the factory.

  5. The beam divergence angle of the sensor is 42°. (Within this 42° cone, 95% of the beam power is contained.)

  6. Campbell Scientific does not offer a display that can be attached directly to the sensor; however, the datalogger used to capture and record the data may have a display.

  7. This has not been tested; however, it is likely that, as the sensor moves through the water, disturbances or bubbles are created that could distort the turbidity measurements.

  8. Possibly. Remember that the accuracy of the sensor is 0.5 NTU. If the drinking water standard is near 1, this sensor may not be a good match.

  9. These devices employ optical backscatter to measure light absorption and should produce comparable data, but variation is likely between sensors.
