Self-Cleaning Sludge Concentration Sensor

This self-cleaning sludge concentration sensor measures sludge concentration from 0 to 50000 mg/L with ±5% accuracy (depending on activated sludge homogeneity) and RS-485 MODBUS output. It uses infrared scattered light and has a self-cleaning brush to reduce contamination. Suitable for activated sludge monitoring and water quality analysis in wastewater treatment.

Accuracy
±5% (depends on homogeneity of activated sludge)
Measuring Range
0–50000 mg/L
Output
RS-485, MODBUS protocol
Operating Temperature
0–50 ℃
  • Digital sensor with RS-485 output and MODBUS protocol.
  • Infrared scattered light detection for reliable repeatability and stability.
  • Sapphire optical windows and filters resist ambient light and chromaticity.
  • Self-cleaning brush prevents microorganism attachment and extends maintenance cycles.
  • Built-in calibration parameters allow easy on-site use and secondary calibration.

SZ518-A questions

What ranges are available for the SZ518-A?
Standard coverage is 0–50000 mg/L. Other spans, outputs, and process connections can be sourced to match the application. Send the working pressure and medium and we will confirm the exact option.
What is the MOQ and lead time?
1 pc (flexible, no minimum for most products). 2-3 days for in-stock items, 15-30 days for custom orders. Samples are available, with freight on the buyer’s account.
Can the SZ518-A be customized?
Range, output signal, process connection, cable length customizable through our supply partners.
Do you manufacture this transmitter?
SIBXSUN is an industrial instrumentation supplier in Ningbo, not the factory. We source the SZ518-A from qualified partners, inspect before shipment, and handle export documents and logistics.
