The MS1200 on-line Oil in Water and Pollution Analyser is designed to protect drinking water treatment plants from pollution events at the raw water intake. These events can result in expensive filter replacement and clean-up operations and may also affect the quality of drinking water produced.
The MS1200 utilises a contactless measurement technique based on Henry’s Law, sensing headspace gases or volatiles in the sampling tank provided, and provides a measurement system with very low maintenance requirements.
Thanks to the clever design and technology the sensor never touches the water. This results in reduced drift, virtually no fouling, no sensor cleaning and very low maintenance.
The MS1200 is accurate to low ppb concentrations and its wide dynamic range allows it to be used in a wide variety of environments.
The concentration of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and water vapor in the headspace increases until equilibrium is reached with the concentration in the water. A sample of gas is then taken from the headspace and the response analysed to provide a concentration in ppb of contaminants in the water.
