With over 30 years of optical design expertise HF scientific has developed an AccUView LED Online UV Analyzer specifically for drinking water disinfection monitoring. Engineered using leading edge microprocessor technology, the AccUView LED is the most reliable and cost efficient instrument for monitoring the % Transmission and Absorbance of a UV Disinfection System for drinking water. Standard features include simple calibration procedures, a bubble rejection system, an Ultrasonic Autoclean System designed to reduce operator maintenance time, and selectable scaling of % Transmission or Absorbance.
STANDARD FEATURES
UVC LED light source - Longer life and mercury free
Two measurement scales - % Transmission and Absorbance
Standard communications include 4-20 mA with isolator or RS-485 with Modbus protocol.
Modular microprocessor based technology ensures high quality at an affordable price.
Frustrated with Water Quality Instrumentation "Sunsetting"?
HF scientific is committed to supporting rural and suburban water markets. Other water quality instrument suppliers abandon these markets and favor large urban water systems. They then push lucrative service contracts to support their product's complex operating scheme. That's not the HF way. HF scientific will gladly provide in-depth product training, both remotely or in person, and their products are cost-effective and easy to use. That's particularly important for water systems that don't have dedicated instrument personnel or where one operator wears many hats.
HF scientific's value proposition embraces all customers who want to maintain their equipment simply, affordably and for the long term.
Sunsets are beautiful, except when its the sunsetting of your valuable water testing equipment.
Have you ever experienced microbial contamination that led to an out-of-spec event, water system quarantine, or product recall even though you perform routine testing? How much time and cost did it take investigate or undo this damage? Even with false positive results, it’s often too late.
The water loop has to be sanitized, rinsed, retested and the affected product may be a total loss.
While plate counting is a regulatory requirement, there are inherent risks and delays that can greatly impact the accuracy of test results. Let’s take a look at these risks.
No matter how careful you are, contamination can still occur at any stage of sampling.
Waiting 5-7 days to get results causes you to use “at risk" water without knowing the microbiological quality.
A sample you take now could yield very different results than a sample taken minutes or hours later.
Sampling too infrequently can also cause you to miss an excursion.
You can only count what will culture and colonies you can actually see.
Such variables and limitations can mislead your assessment of the water quality.
What if you could reduce these risks with a complementary test method? Instead of capturing snapshots that are a week old with sampling, you could have full visibility of your process with continuous, real-time monitoring. When used in parallel with plate counting, the Mettler Toledo 7000RMS real-time microbial detection analyzer can help you react quickly to any trend or excursion before it becomes an event. Giving you complete process transparency for minimized risk and real-time water release.
The Mettler Toledo 7000RMS advanced laser-induced fluorescence technology provides a direct cell count of microorganisms present in pharma-grade waters. Overcoming limitations of growth-based laboratory methods that are an estimation of microbial presence and dependent on time and incubation conditions.
Counts microorganisms from as small as 0.50 microns and accepts direct input line temperatures of up to 90ºC. The Mettler Toledo 7000RMS delivers 24/7 monitoring of water treatment, storage tanks, distribution loops, points-of-use and clean-in-place processes.
Applications: Continuous monitoring of PW, WFI and UPW
Learn about the HF Scientific MTOL+ turbidimeter from this short video. Turbidity measurement is a common task in water treatment and water quality monitoring. Instruments designed for accuracy and easy of use, such as the MTOL+, can save time while producing reliable results. Notable features of the redesigned online instrument include:
Primary calibration can be completed in less than 5 minutes.
Bubble rejection system eliminates bubbles without delaying response time.
Data logging and storage of 1 year’s measurement and calibration data
Variable user-selectable logging interval from 1 to 60 minutes
Download data via USB
Software updates via USB
Isolated 4-20mA output standard
4-20mA and RS-485 Modbus outputs simultaneously
Ultrasonic cleaning standard
