Turbitity sensor with wiper
Turbidity measurements are often made in shallow waters and keeping the instrument optical face clear is particularly important. Turner Designs introduces a new turbidity sensor addressing this issue with a simple solution. Turbidity Plus is an accurate single-channel turbidity sensor including an integrated wiper which is triggered by the user. Designed for integration with multiparameter systems and dataloggers from which it receives power and the wiper trigger. Delivers a voltage output proportional to the turbidity of the sample, which can be correlated to nephelometric turbidity unit (NTU) values by calibrating with a standard of known concentration. Deployable to 200 m.

Handheld magnetic wheeled encoded scanner
AUT Solutions has released an all new and improved encoded scanner, the NanoScan II. The modular, high-resolution, non-contact encoder is completely IP68 water-sealed with no moving parts. It now comes with a connector so longer encoder cables can be used or cables can be replaced if damaged. Cable can be sold as a spare part to a kit so the technician can replace it in a few minutes with no downtime. An optional high-temp encoder housing can be purchased, which has an air inlet port to allow the scanner encoder to be cooled with air for high-temperature applications (up to 500°F).

Hazard protection wear
DuPont’s Tychem® 6000 F FaceSeal is a tight coverall that features an integral rubber seal around the hood aperture. Designed to provide a perfect fit and tightness when wearing a full-face mask, this garment is designed for applications where liquid leaks may be a particular hazard. The Tychem® 6000 F FaceSeal offers excellent frontal protection thanks to a horizontal back opening that allows the user to step into the garment before pulling on the upper section. The rear vent is then secured using a zipper and flap with poppers.

Leak noise sensors for tight spaces
PermaNet F leak noise sensors from Fluid Conservation provide water network managers with a fixed-base cellular network to monitor leakage. The compact sensors were designed to quickly install into small underground spaces, providing readings with dramatically reduced noise interference compared to those taken with aboveground sensors. The sensors work by recording noise levels and tracking consistent noise to build a sound profile. Units can then detect a leak after only one night. The sensors communicate with host software using 3G cellular communication, allowing large amounts of data to be transferred with no radio mesh infrastructure to maintain.
