LTH Electronics is pleased to announce the latest addition to the MXD53 series of process control instruments, the MSSD53 suspended solids monitor. The MSSD53 has been designed to work with a series of sensors designed and built by one of LTH's trading partners - Quadbeam Technologies.
The MSSD53 is able to display the measured values in NTUs, FTUs, PPM, mg/l, g/l, %, EBC or OD. The Quadbeam sensors incorporate engineering improvements to eliminate water ingress and also withstand the rapid temperature cycling (from 10° to 80°), which occurs during CIP cleaning cycles, by design these sensors automatically compensate for component ageing, sensor fouling and daylight interference. These sensors are available as an immersion style sensor for continuous online monitoring of suspended solids in industrial and municipal wastewater treatment plants, mining and refining operations. They are also available as an hygienic style sensor, which can be installed directly into food product lines.
The large backlit multifunction display of the MSSD53 guides the operator effortlessly through the structured programming procedure, reducing the need to refer to the handbook. A further enhancement is the multilevel security, where day-to-day operator access can be limited to a viewing data and settings only, while allowing full access to the instrument programmer.
The MSSD53 has a universal power supply, which allows a connection to any supply between 80 to 260 V a.c. or d.c. This instrument also comes with various other features such as flexible control and alarm configuration, current output, calibration, off-line and sensor cleaning.

Analytical Instrumentation & Environmental Monitoring
At its peak in 1994, the energy generation capacity of the UK’s nuclear power stations was 12,7 GW across 16 plants. In 2024, the capacity has fallen to around 5 GW, and the number of stations is down to nine. However, this is far from the end of the story as spent nuclear fuel remains radioactive for centuries, and requires rigorous safety processes to safeguard against leaks.
