Intended use Intended use The optek-sensors TF56 and their variants are to be applied only as scattered light turbidimeters for liquids and gases in inline applications according to the technical data. The use of the sensors in hazardous locations is prohibited.
Description of the TF56 sensor Description of the TF56 sensor The TF56 model is a high precision dual channel scattered light turbidimeter. It measures direct light and light scatterd from particles in the process medium at an angle of 11°. The sensor is made entirely of stainless steel and designed for direct installation into pipelines.
Page 12
Description of the TF56 sensor Its modular construction offers maximum flexibility in adapting to the process, without affecting the property of measurement. An appropriately defined light beam penetrates the process medium. The light scattered from particles in the process medium, e. g. traces of suspended solids, immiscible liquids or gas bubbles, is detected by four hermetically sealed silicon photodiodes at an angle of 11°.
