Monitoring TSS in Sewers and Overflows

Tracking TSS (Total Suspended Solids) is crucial for gaining valuable insights into water quality evolution. Additionally, it serves as an alarm system for breakthroughs or overflows.
The durable Olpas Tentacle sensors are versatile, capable of installation in open water, rivers, or in challenging environments such as sewers and overflows.

Monitoring TSS in Sewers and Overflows

Olpas Tentacle Sensors have been build with remote monitoring in mind. The sensors use less energy, are accurate, and fouling resistant. This makes them the most optimal practical and economical choice for remote monitoring.

"The impressive fouling resistance of the OLPAS Technology, makes the Olpas Tentacle sensor the ideal solution to measure TSS in sewers and urban waste water: the sensor requires significantly less maintenance and it has by far the lowest tendency to drift compared to our whole install base of TSS and Turbidity sensors."

Key features

Olpas TSS sensors are suitable for measurements in

  • Sewers, Sewer overflows and CSO spills

  • Influent of WWTPs (Waste Water Treatment Plants)

  • Open waters, canals and natural rivers


Other measurements available

Next to TSS-measurement in challenging environments, Olpas also offers TSS measurements in WWTP-effluent (low concentrations), in various WWTP-applications, and in bulk water and lakes.

IoT-ready

  • IoT-ready, with digital output optimised for energy efficient data communication

  • Low energy usage

  • Easy to connect to an external powersupply (batteries or solar)
