Benefits of technology
The present invention provides a system and method for simultaneously measuring the turbidity, color, and chlorine content of a liquid sample. The system includes an illumination source that generates an illumination beam, a detector that measures the illumination beam at a right angle, and two detectors that measure the illumination beam at a 90-degree angle. The method involves retaining a sample of the liquid and executing the detection process at the same time. The system can also include a cleaning assembly to remove air bubbles from the sample. The technical effects of the invention include improved accuracy in measuring multiple parameters of a liquid sample simultaneously and the ability to measure turbidity, color, and chlorine content with a single system.
Problems solved by technology
However, existing equipment is typically not capable of simultaneously or near simultaneously measuring turbidity, color and chlorine content of a single sample of liquid, which would obviate the need to retrieve several samples of the liquid and analyze them separately.

Embodiment Construction
[0053]FIG. 1 shows a simplified illustration of a color, turbidity and chlorine content (CTC) analysis system 100 constructed and operative in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. System 100 is preferably operable for simultaneously or nearly simultaneously measuring turbidity, chlorine content and color of a liquid by: (a) retaining, from a continuous flow of the liquid, a sample volume of the liquid; and (b) at least nearly simultaneously executing at least two of: (i) detecting illumination from the sample volume of liquid by at least a first detector operable for detecting illumination from the sample volume of liquid at a 90-degree angle with respect to an illumination beam generated by an illuminator and impinging on the sample volume of liquid, thereby measuring a turbidity of the sample volume of liquid; (ii) detecting illumination from the sample volume of liquid by at least a second detector operable for detecting illumination from the sample vo...

A method for measuring turbidity and chlorine content of a liquid. The method includes shaking the liquid in a sample holder, using a shaker assembly, and removing bubbles including micro bubbles from the liquid using the micro-bubble removing shaker, retaining a sample volume of the liquid, and at least nearly simultaneously executing at least two of detecting illumination from the sample volume by a first detector operable for detecting illumination from the sample volume at a 90-degree angle with respect to an illumination beam generated by an illuminator and impinging on the sample volume, thereby measuring a turbidity of the sample volume, detecting illumination from the sample volume of liquid by a second detector operable for detecting illumination from the sample volume of liquid at a 180-degree angle with respect to the illumination beam, thereby measuring chlorine content of the sample.
