[0028] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the floatable turbidity meter in this embodiment includes an inner cylinder 10 , an outer shell 20 , a float tank 30 , a turbidity display 40 , a host computer 50 and a chain 60 .

[0029] The inner cylinder 10 is a stainless steel inner cylinder with a hollow interior. A turbidity meter probe 11 is provided at the bottom end of the inner cylinder 10. The turbidity meter probe 11 is located below the liquid level 12 of the sedimentation tank.

[0030] The outer shell 20 is a stainless steel outer shell that is mounted on the outer side of the top of the inner cylinder 10. A plurality of holes 21 are evenly distributed on the sidewall of the outer shell 20. Furthermore, a stainless steel baffle 22 is welded to the outer wall of the outer shell 20, and screw holes 23 are evenly distributed on the stainless steel baffle 22.

[0031] The buoyancy chamber 30 is a hollow plastic buoyancy chamber, mounted on the outer wall of the outer shell 20 and positioned above the stainless steel baffle 22. The bottom of the buoyancy chamber 30 is screwed to the screw holes 23 in the stainless steel baffle 22. This hollow plastic buoyancy chamber allows the top end of the inner cylinder 10 to float above the liquid level 12.

[0032] The turbidity display 40 is electrically connected to the turbidity probe 11 via an electrical wire 41. One end of the wire 41 is connected to the turbidity display 40, while the other end passes through the hollow inner cylinder 10 and connects to the turbidity probe 11. The turbidity display 40 displays turbidity data detected by the turbidity probe 11 and is located near the testing point to facilitate viewing, recording, and subsequent maintenance of the turbidity display 40.

[0033] The host computer 30 is in communication connection with the turbidity meter probe 11 and is set in a duty room or office beside the sedimentation tank. It can receive the turbidity data detected by the turbidity meter probe 11 in real time, making it convenient for workers to transcribe the turbidity data in the sedimentation tank.

[0034] In addition, the turbidity meter includes two chains 60, one end of the two chains 60 is symmetrically arranged on the holes 21 on the housing 20, and the other end is arranged outside the sedimentation tank to fix the entire turbidity meter to prevent the turbidity meter from being washed away by the water flow in the tank.

[0035] In addition, the two chains 60 have sufficient length and degree of freedom, so that the turbidimeter can float above the liquid level to be tested at any height.

[0036] This floatable turbidimeter utilizes a plastic hollow float tank to allow the top of the inner tube 10 to float above the liquid surface 12 of the sedimentation tank, while the turbidimeter probe 11 at the bottom of the inner tube 10 is located below the liquid surface 12, accurately and continuously detecting the turbidity of the liquid in the sedimentation tank.

Based on this floatable turbidity meter, by respectively arranging the outer shell and the float tank on the outside of the inner tube, it can float on the liquid surface, and further enables the turbidity meter probe at the bottom end of the inner tube to always be located below the liquid surface to be detected, so that it can continuously and accurately read the turbidity value, which is not affected by the water level of the sedimentation tank, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the turbidity meter, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the subsequent deep treatment link.

[0038] In addition, the outer shell is provided with a baffle, which is located at the bottom of the buoyancy box. The baffle is provided with screw holes, and the bottom of the buoyancy box is provided with screws. The buoyancy box can be fixed to the outer shell by using the screw holes and screws.

[0039] In addition, holes are evenly distributed on the sidewalls of the housing. The turbidimeter also includes chains symmetrically arranged on the holes. The chains and holes can secure the entire turbidimeter, preventing it from being washed away by water.

[0040] In addition, the chain has sufficient length and degree of freedom to ensure that the turbidity meter can float on the surface of the liquid to be tested at any height, thereby increasing its applicability.

[0041] Not only that, the inner cylinder is a hollow structure, the wires pass through the hollow structure, and the two ends are respectively connected to the turbidity meter probe and the turbidity display, so that the turbidity display can display the turbidity detected by the turbidity meter probe.
