LUMINA
VEF Optical Effluent Transmitter
Accurate Optical TS Measurement for Wastewater Monitoring
The SATRON VEF is an optical transmitter designed for precise measurement of Total Solids (TS) in wastewater and effluent streams. It operates using light absorption technology, providing reliable, real-time results with minimal maintenance.
With a measurement range of 0–1,000 ppm, the VEF is ideal for municipal and industrial wastewater applications. The transmitter includes a retraction mechanism that allows safe sensor replacement during process operation, ensuring continuous measurement and uptime.
