Abstract

The development of a sensor to measure colour and turbidity of natural waters is described. Filtration of the water is not required, so maintenance intervals and costs will be reduced. A four-beam intensity compensation technique is used for robust measurement and resistance to fouling. Results of the operation of a prototype at a water treatment works are presented.
