Drinking Water Application Notes

1. Leak Detection On Water Distribution Network Using Clamp-On Flowmeters 5/22/2023

   A global engineering company realized that their leak identification methods were time consuming and expensive, and so began to explore alternative solutions, such as ultrasonic flow meters. 

2. The 'First Line Of Defense' In Protecting Membrane Filters 8/9/2019

   Multi-element, self-cleaning pretreatment filters optimize membrane filter life and production while minimizing maintenance and downtime.

3. UV Technology Offers Solution For Emerging Water Crisis 2/19/2014

   Many are turning to UV as an effective barrier to enable the reuse of wastewater, for indirect reuse, and aquifer recharge.

4. Active Energy Control – Energy Reductions Of Up To 10% Above Standard Drives 4/1/2017

   Energy costs continue to increase. At the same time, there is increased pressure to reduce utility bills without sacrificing operations or comfort.

5. Determination Of Polar Pesticide Residues In Food Of Plant Origin, By And Automate QuPPe Solution 9/29/2014

   The QuEChERS (Quick-Easy-Cheap-Effective-Rugged-Safe) sample extraction method was developed for the determination of pesticide residues in agricultural commodities.

6. Application Note: Vertical Profiling Safeguards Drinking Water And Sheds Light On Cyanobacteria 2/3/2011
   A search for algal toxins in North Carolina reservoirs has evolved into an ongoing early warning system for three important drinking water reservoirs—which serve two large cities—and yielded a greater understanding of the dynamics of blue-green algae, or cyanobacteria, in the state’s reservoir system. By YSI
7. Real-Time Water Quality Data For Agriculture 9/23/2020

   We arm farmers with mission-critical water data to help enhance crop yield and taste. KETOS delivers valuable insights for fluctuations in deficiency and toxicity.

8. The Basics: Testing RO Quality 4/28/2014

   Osmosis is the phenomenon of lower dissolved solids in water passing through a semi-permeable membrane into higher dissolved solids water until a near equilibrium is reached.

9. Application Note: Continuous Monitoring Of Drinking Water Provides Assurance Of Safety 9/28/2005
   A water utility in Ohio wanted to learn more about the variability of water quality parameters such as pH, ORP, turbidity, and chlorine. Previously, most of these parameters had been measured by spot sampling protocols with only a few measurements during a daily period. In order to more accurately assess the water variability, the utility used a YSI 6920DW Drinking Water Multiprobe
10. Application Note: Turbidity Monitoring In Drinking Water Treatment Plants 8/30/2005

    Turbidity, or the relative clarity of a liquid (in this case drinking water), is caused by the presence of microscopic particles such as clay, silt, or other fine undissolved matter
