The MoniTurb-C-FS is an inline turbidity measurement system for the continuous monitoring of suspended solids and particles in liquids. A focused light beam is transmitted through the process medium, where suspended particles scatter the light in different directions. The system combines two scattering measurement principles:
With the 90° side scattering method, light scattered at a right angle is detected, providing high sensitivity to small, finely dispersed particles. The 12° forward scattering method detects light scattered at a shallow forward angle, making it particularly suitable for measuring larger particles.
Both measurement signals are processed together in the signal amplifier (Messenger). By comparing the 12° and 90° scattering signals, the system provides valuable information about the average particle size distribution within the process medium. Calibration is application-specific and can be configured for the required measuring ranges and engineering units.
The MoniTurb-C-FS combines 12° forward scattering and 90° side scattering technology to deliver high measurement accuracy and long-term stability. This dual-measurement principle reliably detects both fine and coarse particles, allowing early identification of process changes while also providing valuable information about particle size distribution.
The system is designed for low maintenance. Measurement influences caused by product color, lamp aging, or contamination of the optical windows are almost completely compensated through ratio measurement. The high-power LED light source offers a typical service life of up to 5 years. Alternatively, a gas-filled full-spectrum measuring lamp with a service life of 1–2 years is available. An optional ATEX version allows operation in hazardous areas. The measuring cell is manufactured from high-quality stainless steel, while alternative materials such as titanium, Hastelloy, PEEK, and other materials are available on request. The sensor can be installed in almost any pipeline, with process connections and sealing materials individually adapted to the specific application.

The Messenger (MSG) Signal Amplifier is compatible with all optical sensors from the Chemtronic and Monitek product series. It allows users to operate up to four single-channel sensors simultaneously. Independent operation of different sensors is also supported without any limitations. The measurement results from the individual sensors can be linked and processed in virtually any combination, enabling applications such as the straightforward implementation of dosing systems.
The system is configured and operated via a PC or laptop using intuitive menu-driven software. As an option, the Messenger is also available with an integrated panel PC for standalone operation.
