ST-500 Series Inline Fluorometers

The popular ST-500 inline fluorometer is a robust and highly accurate tool for real-time monitoring of inhibitor dose. It is often used for feedback control to maintain dosed concentration within a narrow band around the set point, regardless of changes in cycle or heat load dynamics.

Now the ST-500 series includes expanded measurement targets for a broad range of analytes, including fluorescein and naphthenic disulfonic acid (NDSA), and brings its proven record of reliability to your traced cooling programs for boiler and other applications.

Thanks to its state-of-the-art fluorescence technology, the ST-500 Series handles a wide range of real-world sample water conditions. With its flow-through optical design and multiple wavelength color-turbidity compensation algorithm, the ST-500 probe maintains high performance for water samples with up to 100 NTU turbidity and/or 5 ppm iron.

The competitive probe comparison shown in the experiment below clearly demonstrates the superior performance of the ST-500 probe in the presence of iron color.

Typical Applications

  • Traced cooling water treatment programs
  • Traced boiler water treatment programs

Features

  • Color and turbidity compensation for accurate readings, long-term stability, and less frequent calibration.
  • Typical maintenance cycle in months, not weeks or days.
  • Works with WiFi and Bluetooth adapters for one-press calibration with the SP-910, 700, and 400 tools, and for firmware upgrades via your smart phone.
  • Isolated 4-20mA output: no need for additional transmitter for easy connection with PLC and DCS.
