Applications - Observator Instruments ANALITE NEP-5000 Manual

The NEP-5000 probes typical use include applications such as:
1. Water quality.
2. Food processing.
3. Waste treatment.
4. Environmental compliance for dredging operations.
Which model is best used will be dependent on the application, the measuring environment, the
logging equipment and the monitoring period (deployment times) required.
Although advanced digital processing in the ANALITE NEP-5000 will effectively measure the
true turbidity of water when large particles are passing by the optical face, it is recommended
to take steps to protect the optical face from possible abrasive effects these particles may cause.
The ANALITE turbidity probes are not suitable in situations where they may be abraded by large
particles such as sand. Under these circumstances, the reading may become erratic due to the
large particles passing the optic sensor. Measuring turbidity under such potentially abrasive
circumstances may require a stilling well to allow the sand or other hard particles to settle away
from the optic sensor in the probe tip.
