4690 Series

Turbidity sensor

Accurate, reliable turbidity
measurement

Measurement made easy

Introduction

The 4690 sensor is a rugged, reliable instrument 
designed to measure the turbidity content of water. 
The sensor also has additional features including 
dry standard verification and automatic cleaning. 
The sensor is designed for use with the ABB AWT420 
dual-input transmitter.
