OPUS is the new generation of spectral sensors for online measurement of nitrogen and carbon compounds. Through the analysis of a full spectrum, OPUS is able to deliver reliable readings for NO3-N, NO2-N, organic ingredients (CODeq, BODeq, DOCeq, TOCeq), and a number of other parameters.

*** depending on the composition of the COD and BOD (sum parameter)
**** based on KHP (Note: 100 mg/L COD-standard-solution corresponds to 85 mg/L KHP)
***** based on SiO2
Note:
1 mg/L N-NO3 corresponds to 4.43 mg/L NO3
1 mg/L N-NO2 corresponds to 3.28 mg/L NO2
