Turbidity calibration (in
mg/L)
When a turbidity sensor is used to measure in a range whose units are mg/L,
then the sensor must be calibrated using a field sample.
A 2-point calibration is performed:
- 1 offset using distilled water (0 mg/L),
- 1 gain using a sludge sample: immerse the sensor in the sample, with
stirring, and log the theoretical value measured by the sensor. Using the
same sample, analyze the dry weight in a laboratory in accordance with
standard EN 872 within a range from 0-500 mg/L, and in accordance with
standard NF T 90 105 2 if the concentration is > 500 mg/L.
Temperature calibration
