Sludge Blanket Detector

Avocet Sludge Blanket Monitor

The Avocet Sludge Blanket monitors the sedimentation and scum accumulation in remote settlement tanks and clarifiers in water treatment works, waste water reclamation works and factories with treatment plant.

The Avocet Sludge Blanket monitors the sedimentation and scum accumulation in remote settlement tanks and clarifiers in water treatment works, waste water reclamation works and factories with treatment plant. The Avocet is particularly suited for identifying auto-desludging and overspill alarm signals and for monitoring the general biological health of thick sludge blankets. The Avocet Sludge Blanket Monitor gives highly accurate measurements of sludge blanket composition in settlement tanks and clarifiers by utilising extremely high frequency ultrasound sensors (1.1MHz) that can detect the lowest sludge density found in secondary clarifiers.
