The bbe Algae Online Analyser enables automatic algae profiling of rivers, lakes, oceans, wetlands, estuaries, dams and water storages.
The bbe Algae On-line Analysers take continuous measurements of micro algae in real-time, with the measurements corresponding to wet-chemical chlorophyll analysis.
The instruments can calculate the activity measurement of the algae (Genty-Parameter) and measure yellow substances (CDOM), and compensate for the influence of turbidity on algae profiling by measuring the transmission.
The bbe software for algae class differentiation determines the distribution of algae classes relating to the total ‘chlorophyll a’ content. With this technique, the ‘chlorophyll a’ content of green algae, blue green algae, cryptophyceae and brown algae (i.e. diatoms, dinoflagellates) is analysed. The system is also adaptable to new (customised) algae classes added to the measuring system.
The Algae Online Analyser has a measuring range of <0.02 - 200 µg/l. The sensor has an automatic cleaning device which periodically cleans the measuring cell and removes any particles or biofilms. This procedure guarantees well defined optical properties of the cell, and extends the maintenance-free period.
It has never been more important to effectively manage algae, and to protect our precious water resources by real-time analysis.
