Turbidity in Food & Beverage
Turbidity in Food & Beverage
Turbidity measurement plays a vital role in food and beverage production by ensuring product consistency, monitoring process hygiene, and maintaining compliance with quality standards. Whether used in brewing, dairy processing, or ingredient water control, turbidity sensors help manufacturers reduce waste and maintain brand integrity.
AlpHa’s TU90 turbidity sensor features a rugged optical system designed with the following features:
- Precision 90° laser-based scattering method compliant with ISO 7027
- Wide NTU range options (0 – 100, 0 – 1500, and 0 – 5000 NTU)
- Industry-leading low-range accuracy with ± 1% error in the 0 – 100 NTU range
- Built-in temperature compensation
- Custom OEM sonde and stand-alone configurations including optional programmable wiper
The measurement of turbidity is important in food and beverage operations for the following reasons: AlpHa’s TU90 turbidity sensor is ideal for inline or submersible turbidity monitoring at critical process points, providing fast, accurate, and repeatable data to support consistent product quality and efficient plant operations.
