Dragino DR-TS4000 Water Turbidity Sensor (RS485) IP68

The Dragino DR-TS4000 is a robust, industrial-grade water turbidity sensor designed for accurate monitoring of suspended particles and water clarity in demanding aquatic environments.

With a measurement range of 0–4000 NTU, the DR-TS4000 is suitable for applications involving water with varying turbidity levels, including wastewater treatment, industrial process water, aquaculture and environmental monitoring.

The sensor uses 90° optical light scattering technology to measure turbidity, providing a practical method for monitoring changes in suspended particle concentration.

Its RS485 Modbus RTU interface enables integration with compatible PLCs, SCADA systems, industrial data loggers and water quality monitoring equipment.

The durable IP68-rated waterproof enclosure allows installation in suitable submerged environments, while the integrated 5-meter cable simplifies connection to compatible monitoring equipment.

Operating with a 10–30V DC power supply, the DR-TS4000 can be integrated into industrial automation systems and continuous water monitoring installations.

The sensor is particularly useful for wastewater treatment plants, industrial facilities, aquaculture systems and environmental monitoring stations requiring reliable turbidity measurements.

Important: The DR-TS4000 is an RS485 Modbus RTU sensor and does not include integrated LoRaWAN connectivity. For wireless data transmission, it must be connected to a compatible external LoRaWAN transmitter or RS485 communication device.
