Blue-Green Algae Sensor
HydroMetric blue-green algae sensor uses fluorescence characteristics of cyanobacteria pigments for rapid in-situ monitoring. It is designed to support early bloom detection and continuous monitoring in drinking-water sources, aquaculture, surface water and other environmental programs.

Applications
- Water-treatment plant intake monitoring
- Drinking-water source monitoring
- Aquaculture
- Surface-water monitoring
- Landscape-water and pond monitoring
- Early warning for cyanobacterial bloom risk
Installation & Integration
Because cyanobacteria can be distributed unevenly, select a representative installation point and consider multiple sensors for large water bodies. Confirm whether the application is fresh water or marine and provide expected turbidity conditions.
