Page 10: Product Overview
Note: The flow-through units of the high precision NITRATAX plus sc and the NITRATAX clear sc sensors are used wherever direct measurement in the medium is not possible for structural reasons, or the medium load makes it necessary to measure a filtered sample (very high TS content, sewage treatment plant inlet, waste dump leachate, etc.). -
Page 11: Theory Of Operation
General Information 2.3 Theory of operation Nitrate dissolved in water absorbs UV light with wavelengths below 250 nm. This inherent absorption by nitrate makes it possible to photometrically determine the nitrate concentration without reagents by using a sensor positioned directly in the medium. As the measuring principle (Figure 3) is based on the evaluation of (invisible) UV light, the color... - Page 12 General Information...
