Measurement Solutions for Water & Wastewater Treatment

Water and wastewater treatment processes require accurate and reliable flow, pressure, level, and water quality monitoring to support stable system operation. ARTang instruments are widely used in water treatment plants, wastewater treatment systems, dosing units, tanks, channels, pools, and process pipelines.

Our electromagnetic flowmeters are used to measure the flow of water, wastewater, and dosing media, while vortex flowmeters are suitable for gas and steam measurement. Pressure transmitters help monitor and control process pressure, and hydrostatic level transmitters or ultrasonic level transmitters are used for level measurement in tanks, channels, and basins. ARTang water analysis instruments also support online monitoring of key water quality parameters, including pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, and turbidity.

Typical Applications in Water & Wastewater Treatment

FAQ

What instruments are needed for a water treatment project?

A typical water treatment project may require flowmeters, pressure transmitters, level transmitters, and water quality analyzers for flow, pressure, level, pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, and other process monitoring.

Can electromagnetic flowmeters measure wastewater with suspended solids?

Yes. Electromagnetic flowmeters are suitable for conductive wastewater and liquids containing suspended solids, as long as the pipe remains full and the lining and electrode materials are correctly selected.

Which instruments are used for PAC and PAM dosing systems?

Electromagnetic flowmeters are commonly used for conductive dosing liquids, while pressure transmitters and water quality sensors can be used to support dosing control and process monitoring.

How should I choose a level transmitter for tanks, basins, or open channels?

Hydrostatic level transmitters are suitable for tanks, pools, and basins. Ultrasonic level transmitters are often used when non-contact measurement is preferred for open tanks, channels, or wastewater areas.

Can you provide instruments for both water treatment and wastewater treatment systems?

Yes. Flow, pressure, level, and water quality instruments can be selected for raw water intake, clean water supply, wastewater treatment, chemical dosing, aeration, reuse water, and discharge monitoring.
