Valmet TS - Total Solids
Real-time total solids measurement for wastewater
Control and optimize your total solids using advanced microwave technology with the Valmet Total Solids Measurement (Valmet TS). The most reliable and accurate online measurement for wastewater, the Valmet TS creates new opportunities to save while improving process performance.
Best-in-class accuracy for total solids measurement
With advanced microwave technology and no wearing parts, the Valmet TS is the most accurate and reliable total solids measurement for any wastewater process. Regardless of flow rate or sludge quality variations, the Valmet TS delivers exceptionally precise measurements using rapid data collection and high sample volumes.
The Valmet TS determines total organic and inorganic solids content from 0% to 50%. Because it continuously measures all solids in the process flow, the Valmet TS enables better control for more efficient industrial and municipal wastewater processes. From reducing water content in dry cake, to optimizing polymer dosage a biogas production, running at better pumping capacity and saving on transportation costs, the Valmet TS delivers what you need.
Online, real-time total solids measurement
With the Valmet TS, you can achieve significant savings through optimized mass flow controls, further advancing the environmental benefits of effective wastewater treatment. Enhance wastewater processes by improving overall efficiency and providing crucial data for dewatering optimization.
Valmet TS sensors also have ATEX, IECEx, and UKEX certifications and can be used in Explosion Hazardous Areas.
