Description of the function
CBX is an optical suspended solids meter designed to measure sludge and fluff blanket
depth in clarifiers, thickeners, etc. in water and wastewater plants, as well in other
facilities. It is possible to display measured values as text or as a graphic image of the
sludge profile.
Working principle
The sensor is sent down into the clarifier/thickener and measures the suspended solids
as it descends and sends the data via a communication cable to the BB2 control box. By
submersing the sensor into the liquid you are able to obtain reliable suspended solids
readings versus depth and avoid problems from foam and fluff layers in the
clarifier/thickener.
Sensor body
The sensor body contains optics and electronics that should not be exposed to
mechanical abuse or high temperatures. If the sensor body has mechanical damages,
water may penetrate into the sensor and destroy the electronics and optics. Please see
section
