Water quality

Smart measurement of the water quality.

The i::scan is a multi-parameter spectrometer that can be installed directly in water lines. The probe is in direct contact with the medium and is mounted on a pipe saddle. Mounting and measurement directly in the medium or in the flow fitting.

The Hawle.LIVE supplies the i::scan with power and is responsible for controlling the probe, interpreting the sensor data and transferring the data to our Hawle.MAP. The Hawle.LIVE in combination with the i::scan fits together perfectly and can be easily integrated into any water supply system.

The following parameters can be checked with the i::scan spectral probe:
  • Turbidity (NTU-EPA, FTU-ISO)
  • Colour
  • UV254 / UVT
  • Organic parameters (TOC, DOC, CSB)
  • Many other combinations possible

  • Direct mounting in the pressure line possible
  • Hawle.MAP integration

Description parameters

TURBIDITYcaused by small particles in the water. These are undissolved, inorganic minerals or organic particles. Turbidity is therefore often an indicator of impurities in the water.

COLOUR: Drinking water should be colourless.
Yellow to yellow-brown: humic substances
Yellow to brown: water containing iron and manganese
Blue: corpreous water

UV254is a simple indicator of organics in the water

TOCindicates the sum of the total organic carbon collected in the water. TOC describes organic contaminants in a water system and is used in quality control and cleaning validation.

DOCis the dissolved organic carbon content
measured by turbidity compensation.

Intervals

  • Measurement interval: 2 minutes (standard), individually adjustable
  • Each measured value is recorded and temporarily stored. If an alarm threshold is exceeded, an immediate notification is given.
  • Transmission interval: the saved data is transmitted to the platform every 12 hours (standard) and immediately in the event of an alarm.

Application areas

  • Monitoring drinking water quality
  • Monitoring of sources, pure water
  • Process optimisation
  • Intelligent sensor networks
  • Flocculant dosing
  • Monitoring the purification of wastewater treatment plants

i::scan installed directly in the pressure line.

The i::scan can be mounted in the pressure line without interrupting the water flow.
