The Proteus is a brand new multi parameter sensor platform for real-time measurement of BOD, COD, TOC and Coliforms (total, e.coli or faecal) that compensates for temperature and turbidity. The Proteus can be easily integrated with any telemetry / SCADA system and can also be used with existing logging devices with external RS232/Modbus/SDI 12. Its integrated datalogger can store 1,000,000 readings which can be viewed on mobile phone / tablet.
The Proteus multi-probe can be configured to the users choice of parameters and offers a unique platform to add additional sensors such as pH, REDOX, electrical conductivity, dissolved oxygen and many others.
Parameters include:
BOD/COD/TOC/DOC | Temperature | Refined Oils | |
Coliforms (total, e.coli or faecal) | Dissolved Oxygen | Optical Brighteners | |
Pressure | Nitrate | EC/SALINITY/TDS | |
Chloride | ORP/REDOX | Turbidity | |
pH | Tryptophan | Crude Oils | |
CDOM | fDOM | TDG | |
Ammonium |
A range of power options are available including internal lithium battery packs, ideal for unattended logging, or multiple external power options of battery, mains or solar panel.
