Ultrasonic Flow Meters

Ultrasonic flow meters are changing the way we measure flow and are a quick and easy solution to flow monitoring that can be added at almost any point within a system.

Ultrasonic flow meters use a signal transmitted through the liquid from one sensor to another. When the ultrasonic signal is transmitted and received through the moving liquid, there will be a difference between the upstream and downstream transit time, which is then used to calculate flow and velocity.

Perfect for use with our range of ozone generators, or your choice of ozone generator or pH control system.

pH Monitoring and Control

Monitoring and control of pH produces a more stable environment for not only the culture species but also the nitrifying bacteria in an aquaculture system.

Nitrifying bacteria not only have an optimum pH range (7-8.5 depending on species) but they also utilise the inorganic carbon in the form of carbonate and bi-carbonate from the alkalinity reserve in your water as part of their metabolism.

Without optimum pH, and the inorganic carbon source as part of their metabolic requirements, nitrifying bacteria can become inefficient and with a complete lack of carbonates, pH crashes, nitryfing bacteria die and the biofilter crashes, in some cases leading to catastrophic results.

Manual dosing can be utilised very effectively, whoever using a pH monitor/controller to automatically dose a saturated alkalinity solution to control pH (and kH by proxy) the control of pH in a culture system can produce much more stable results and more stable culture conditions.

 

ORP Monitoring and control

ORP monitoring and control is commonly used when using ozone generators.

ORP, which is measured in mV (millivolts) when used to measure water quality can be loosely described as an indicator of the cleanliness and quality of your water. The lower the mV rating the lower the water quality, and the higher the mV reading the higher the water quality (and higher the level of oxidants in the water).

It is highly recommended that an ORP controller be used when using ozone as a water quality control solution. ORP can be useful even in systems where ORP is not used as it gives the operator an indication of water quality and can be utilised as another data point in determining water quality and culture conditions.

Mix and match monitor and control instruments as well as expansion modules for flexibility in designing a system to best meet facility needs.

Sustainable Aquaculture

Water Monitoring Place
YSI provides cost-effective monitoring and sampling solutions.

Ensuring a successful and sustainable aquaculture business with environmentally friendly practices begins with an accurate and reliable understanding of water quality parameters. Without an accurate understanding of growth conditions, “crop” health can suffer and improper feeding habits may be used, ultimately resulting in disappointing production levels, high input costs, water pollution and even disease. YSI Continuous recirculating Monitors help you to maintain control of your farming operations.

Effective Monitoring
