-N measurements
Measurement range 0.1 - 100 mg/l NOx_eq in water bodies (other measurement ranges are possible)

Carbon compounds TOC/COD:
Calibration by comparison analysis. Resolution and accuracy depend
on the stability of the water-matrix and its ability to be analysed.
2.1 Notes on Compressed Air Cleaning
In most applications, it is useful to use the compressed air cleaning of the spectrometer. The compressed air
line must be connected to the provided plug-in connection of the BlueBox TS or the external spectrometer
sensor module.
The air consumption of the compressed air cleaning depends on the connection pressure (4 - 6 bar) and the
back pressure in the medium and is at 6 bar at a maximum of 1 litre per second.
Example:
At an interval of 60 seconds and a cleaning time of 5 seconds, the maximum consumption is 300
litres per hour.
2.2 Notes on the Compatibility of Current and Older Spectrometers
The CAN-ID
∗
of a current spectrometer (external spectrometer module and BlueBox TS) begins with
ISA
in
capital letters, e.g.
ISA00001
. The CAN-ID
∗
of an older spectrometer begins with
isa
in small letters.
The current spectrometers require a current
BlueBox firmware version from 3.00.18
and a current
BlueBox
PC Software version as from 4.2.0.0
.
Older spectrometers are compatible with the current firmware and software.
2.3 Notes on the SQI (Spectral Quality Index)
The SQI is a degree of the statistical reliability of measurement values of an application-specific parameter
(see
9.3 The Sensor Setup Window of an Application-Specific Parameter
). Precondition is the creation of a corre-
sponding calibration file in the xml format.

In other contexts also called DAM-ID.
