PARAMETERS WE MEASURE

Here you’ll find a selection of the key parameters we offer. We support a wide range of additional water and wastewater parameters and can tailor a monitoring solution to your specific process, site, or catchment.

OUR PARAMETERS

Reliable insights for every water body

Our instruments measure a wide range of key parameters – from biological indicators to physico-chemical values and nutrients.
 

With fluorescence, physico-chemical, and ion-selective sensing, we deliver accurate, real-time data to safeguard water quality.

Ammonia.png

Ammonia/ Ammonium

Ammonia and ammonium are key indicators of nutrient levels and overall water quality. Elevated concentrations can impact aquatic life and signal organic pollution or process imbalance.

Chloride.png

Chloride

Chloride occurs naturally in most water bodies but can increase through road salt, seawater intrusion, or industrial discharge. Monitoring chloride helps assess salinity and detect external contamination sources.

Depth-Level.png

Depth/ Level

Accurate water level data is essential for understanding hydrological systems. Continuous level monitoring supports groundwater studies, reservoir management, and early detection of flooding or depletion.

DO.png

Dissolved Oxygen (DO)

Dissolved oxygen reflects the amount of oxygen available to aquatic organisms and biological processes. Reliable DO monitoring is vital for assessing ecosystem health and treatment performance.

EC.png

EC/ Conductivity

Electrical conductivity indicates the concentration of dissolved salts and ions in water. It’s a fast and reliable measure to evaluate salinity, mineral content, and overall water chemistry.

Flow.png

Flow

Flow data provides valuable insight into hydrological dynamics and system performance. Continuous flow monitoring supports discharge management, process control, and resource optimization.

Low Flow Sampling.png

Fluorecent

Fluorescence measurements detect dissolved organic matter and pollutants in water by measuring their luminescence, providing a powerful tool for water quality monitoring.

Multiparameter.png

Multiparameter

Multiparameter sondes integrate several sensors into one compact system. They provide efficient, real-time insight into water quality and simplify both field and long-term monitoring applications.

Nitrate.png

Nitrate

Nitrate is a key nutrient but can cause eutrophication when levels rise. Continuous monitoring helps prevent contamination and supports compliance with environmental standards.

Oil on Water.png

Oil on Water

Oil and hydrocarbon residues can have severe effects on water quality. Our monitoring systems detect even thin surface layers, enabling fast response and preventive action.

ORP  Redox.png

ORP/ Redox

Redox potential indicates the oxidation and reduction balance of a water body. It helps assess biological activity, treatment efficiency, and overall chemical stability.

pF (Soil Moisture Potential).png

pF (Soil Moisture)

The pF value expresses the tension between water and soil, showing how available moisture is for plants. Monitoring pF helps manage irrigation and supports sustainable land use.

pH.png

pH

pH defines the acidity or alkalinity of water and plays a central role in all chemical and biological processes. Stable pH levels are essential for water treatment and ecological balance.

Salinity.png

Salinity

Salinity measures the concentration of dissolved salts. Tracking changes in salinity supports environmental monitoring, industrial process control, and protection of freshwater systems.

Temperature.png

Temperature

Temperature affects every physical, chemical, and biological process in water. Reliable temperature data is essential for calibration, trend analysis, and quality assurance.

Turbidity.png

Turbidity

Turbidity reflects the presence of suspended particles and is a key indicator of water clarity. Continuous turbidity monitoring supports sediment control and treatment efficiency.
