Yokogawa Electric Corporation has announced the addition of the TB820D right angle scattered  light turbidity detector, FC800D non-reagent type free available chlorine sensor unit, RC800D reagent type residual chlorine sensor unit, FLXA402T liquid analyser for turbidity and chlorine and PG400 pulse generator for clean unit to its OpreX Analysers lineup for water treatment facilities

With the release of the new products, the water purification technologies that have helped ensure high-quality drinking water in Japan, will now be available in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, South Korea, Australia, and Taiwan. They will become progressively available in the Americas, Europe, and China after April.

According to the World Health Organisation (WHO) guidelines, the turbidity and chlorine  density of water should be tested regularly. A prompt action should be taken to correct any deficiencies, and ensure a supply of safe drinking water. 

Features of the analysers include: 

Industry-standard analyser technology- Yokogawa analysers make use of transmitted and  scattered light turbidity measurement techniques, that have been accepted as a de facto standard by water utility companies in Japan, because of their reliability. 

Self-diagnostics, wireless communications, and remote monitoring- The TB820D right  angle scattered light turbidity detector, FC800D non-reagent type free available chlorine sensor unit, and RC800D reagent type residual chlorine sensor unit utilise self-diagnostic functions that can detect when the maintenance is due, and when faults have occurred. 

The RC800D can also detect when measurement fluid has run out. The FLXA402T liquid  analyser for turbidity and chlorine is designed to link with these other sensors, convert the detected values, and relay that data wirelessly to the cloud, so that it can be monitored remotely from any location. It reduces the necessity for on-site operation and maintenance, and enables facilities whose equipment is distributed over a wide area to operate more efficiently.

Reduced implementation costs- Unlike similar products currently available on the global market, the FLXA402T analyser can be connected to two turbidity detectors, and chlorine sensor units simultaneously. At sites that require the use of multiple sensors, this aids in  keeping the implementation costs low.

The self-diagnostic functions also help streamline the maintenance of plants and facilities.
