Auto-Brushing Ultra-Low Turbidity Analyzers

Description

The IK-73X-PLUS series are single-parameter inline turbidity analyzers designed as turnkey monitoring solutions for industrial water applications, including cooling, process, influent, and wastewater effluent. This series features auto-brushing, highly accurate real-time turbidity measurement, display, and data logging, utilizing proprietary Pyxis Lab smart sensor technology. It integrates the FS-100 ultrasonic flow sensor and Pyxis touchscreen display and data logging terminal for comprehensive monitoring.

Offered in a convenient panel-mounted format, the IK-73X-PLUS series allows rapid installation and simple maintenance. The analyzer incorporates the LT-739 and LT-736 ultra-low turbidity sensor platforms installed in the FT-100-PLUS auto-brushing flow tee. The LT-73X series sensors feature a unique flat distal end quartz glass plate for rapid inline auto-cleaning and prevention of air bubble interference.

With detection ranges of 0.000 to 40 NTU (LT-739) and 0.000 to 1,000 NTU (LT-736), and an industry-leading resolution of 0.002 NTU, these sensors offer optimal accuracy and repeatability with minimal drift. They use a 90º surface scatter configuration with warm white LED light and comply with EPA Method 180.1 standards.

IK-73X-PLUS Features

The IK-73X-PLUS Series provides highly accurate, real-time turbidity measurement with automatic brushing for continuous lens cleaning and minimal maintenance. Using Pyxis Lab’s proprietary smart sensor technology, it delivers reliable ultra-low turbidity readings with easy data display and logging through an integrated touchscreen terminal.

Designed for commercial, industrial, and domestic/drinking water applications, the IK-73X-PLUS series requires a small installation footprint and offers simple operation and maintenance.

Turbidity Analyzers with Minimal Maintenance:

The IK-73X-PLUS Analyzers deliver precise ultra-low turbidity measurement and data logging (0–40 NTU or 0–1,000 NTU) with minimal upkeep. These convenient panel-mounted solutions integrate the FT-100 Plus auto-brushing flow reservoir, which continuously cleans the sensor head for stable and accurate monitoring.

The IK-739-PLUS measures turbidity from 0.000–40.00 NTU, while the IK-736-PLUS covers a range of 0.000–1,000 NTU. Each unit is designed for fast installation and simple maintenance.

FS-100/101 Series Ultrasonic Flow Meters

The FS-100 series ultrasonic flowmeters are state-of-the-art devices that measure flow using the transit time difference principle. They offer a measurement range of 0–3,000 mL/min with a resolution of 1 mL. In this method, ultrasonic waves travel faster downstream than upstream, and the difference in transit time is directly proportional to the flow rate.

Designed for precise flow measurement, the FS-100 series is available with two types of liquid end materials—suitable for standard water and highly corrosive aqueous solutions. The sensor’s advanced PCB design includes built-in temperature compensation, eliminating temperature effects and providing instantaneous, accumulated, and controlled flow measurements based on user-set setpoints within the sensor.

The FS-100 operates on a 24 VDC, 1 W power supply and features both 4–20 mA and RS-485 Modbus output signals, allowing easy integration with OEM controllers, PLCs, or DCS systems.
