Real-Time Water Quality Measurements The In-Situ Series of Multi-Parameter Water Quality Sondes (AquaTroll 200/400/500/600) are compatible with NexSens X-Series data loggers using the Modbus-RTU communication protocol and RS-485 sensor interface. A pre-defined script on X-Series data loggers is able to detect, log and transmit all parameters available on all models of In-Situ sondes. Parameter data […]
The Sequoia LISST-ABS Acoustic Sediment Sensor is designed specifically for measuring suspended sediment concentrations at a single point. The LISST-ABS is compatible with NexSens X-Series data loggers using the SDI-12 communication protocol and sensor interface. A pre-defined script on X-Series data loggers is able to detect, log, and transmit all parameters from the sensor. Parameter […]
Dredging done correctly doesn’t hurt water quality, and can yield positive environmental results. However, ensuring these good results demands monitoring for contaminant release, sediment resuspension, and other water quality issues.
Planning/choosing the right instruments and processes for turbidity measurement can be a challenge. NexSens explores some of the best choices available in the context of experience and highlights the basic requirements for a successful system.
For regulatory or other needs, turbidity monitoring is and important aspect of any dredging project. Dredging affects water clarity and quality and should be monitored in real time to aid with remediation efforts associated with elevated turbidty.
In an effort to dredge the contaminated sediment, a New York consulting firm contacted NexSens Technology for a turbidity monitoring system.
NexSens engineered a buoy-based system with real-time data telemetry for monitoring turbidity during dredge projects.
