Request a QuoteProduct Overview
The TL-COD Series uses UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy for reagent-free online COD measurement. Three models cover different material requirements and output options. Simultaneous turbidity measurement enables automatic compensation.
Working Principle
The sensor uses a continuous online measurement principle with automatic temperature compensation. The measurement signal is processed by an integrated microprocessor and transmitted via RS485 Modbus RTU for direct integration with PLCs, data loggers, and SCADA systems. The 4–20 mA analog output provides compatibility with legacy control systems.
