The Turbidity sensor measures the concentration of suspended matter. It is equipped with a pulsed infrared light transmitter and detects the scattered light from the particles suspended in water. Transmitter and detector arrangement uses 90° scattering at a wavelength of 880 nm. The output signal is proportional to the particle concentration in a very wide range.
