REAL-TIME BOD/COD MONITORING
Detect events rapidly to improve process control and ensure effluent goals are obtained. Real Tech's real-time BOD/COD monitoring solutions can provide significant cost savings.
Product code: BL Series/ BA Series
Producer: Real Tech
Origin: Canada

Real Tech’s innovative BOD and COD sensors utilize patent-pending and proprietary technology for superior measurement performance across multiple wavelengths of light using UV LEDs.

Many compounds absorb light in the UV-VIS spectrum including organics. The sensors measures organics in a multi-dimensional way that results in improved correlations to water quality parameters such as BOD, COD and TOC.

Real Tech offers both a submersible BOD/COD probe (BA series) and bypass BOD/COD sensor (BL series) options to allow the right selection for our clients needs. Multiple path length options are also available to ensure our clients have the detection range that meets their wastewater monitoring demands.
