COD Sensor

A COD Sensor (Chemical Oxygen Demand Sensor) is an intelligent device designed to measure the amount of oxygen required for chemical reactions to decompose organic matter in water. Higher COD values indicate increased levels of organic pollutants, which directly impact water quality.

Our selected RK500-25 COD Sensor operates on the principle of UV light absorption at a wavelength of 254 nm (UV254). This reagent-free method utilizes dual light sources to measure both COD and Turbidity simultaneously, providing significantly higher accuracy than conventional sensors.

Why do industries need COD Sensors?

Integrating a COD Sensor with Industrial Automation or IoT Monitoring systems offers immense benefits:

  • Wastewater Treatment: Monitor water quality before discharge to ensure COD levels meet environmental legal standards.
  • Production Efficiency: In food, beverage, and chemical industries, real-time COD monitoring prevents contamination within production systems.
  • Water Resource Management: Accurate data enables engineers to optimize water treatment processes, reducing chemical and energy costs.

Key Features of the RK500-25 COD Sensor

  • High Precision: Offers a resolution of up to 0.02 mg/L, detecting even trace amounts of pollutants.
  • Fast Response: Processing time of less than 2 seconds, ideal for high-speed systems.
  • Superior Durability: The probe is made of 316L Stainless Steel with an IP68 waterproof rating, ensuring resistance to wastewater corrosion.
  • Versatile Connectivity: Supports 4-20mA and RS485 (Modbus RTU) outputs, allowing instant connection to PLC, HMI, or Smart Farm systems.
  • Low Maintenance: Features an automatic turbidity compensation system for high stability, even in water with suspended solids.
