[0002] In recent years, water pollution has become one of the main environmental issues affecting global sustainable development. Water pollution not only harms human health, but also destroys the balance of the ecosystem and hinders sustainable development. In order to protect public health, it is necessary to use scientific means to manage water bodies. Real-time and effective monitoring of pollutants in water bodies is an important means of water management.

[0003] Absorption spectroscopy and electrochemical detection are both commonly used techniques in modern analytical chemistry, each with its own unique advantages and limitations. Absorption spectroscopy is favored for its high sensitivity and non-destructive analysis, and can provide accurate quantitative information and material structure analysis, but its disadvantage is that it may be interfered by the color or turbidity of the sample, and for multi-component samples, spectral overlap may affect the accuracy of the results. The advantages of electrochemical methods are its low cost, simple operation and rapid response, which are particularly suitable for real-time monitoring and multi-component sample analysis, but it is limited by the choice of electrode materials and the surface state of the electrode, and may be interfered by other redox active substances.

The ultraviolet LED has a large power when irradiated, so a heat dissipation substrate is required and it is fixed on the LED lamp mounting column with a mechanical gripper.

[0013] When the utility model detects, the sample to be detected is placed in the cuvette in the sample chamber, and the sample chamber cover is firstly covered, and then the light shield is covered to ensure that the sample is not affected by external light during the detection.
