New Monochloramine Sensor Technology Measures Free Chlorine And Total Chlorine On The Same Sensor

When water systems switch to chloramination for disinfection, they face a challenge with monitoring the process. While effective, traditional methods for measuring chloramine residuals have significant drawbacks. Existing online techniques like DPD and indophenol methods often fail to provide precise, actionable data, which complicates process control and optimization. These methods can be expensive, require separate instrumentation for different measurements, or are susceptible to interference. A new sensor technology addresses these issues by measuring free chlorine, total chlorine, and monochloramine all on the same unit, giving operators the visibility they need to effectively manage disinfection. Additionally, the sensor is designed for direct pipeline installation, is flow and pressure independent, and offers a maintenance-free design that can save approximately 70,000 gallons of water per year.
