Interactive Catalog Replaces Catalog Pages
Honeywell Sensing and Control has replaced
the PDF product catalog with the new
Interactive Catalog. The Interactive Catalog is
a power search tool that makes it easier to find
product information. It includes more
installation, application, and technical
information than ever before.
These PDF files are no longer being updated
and will be removed by January 2001.

Turbidity Sensors
Wash Process Sensors
APMS-10G Series
OPERATION
The APMS-10G Wash Process Sensor
provides an integrated package consisting of a microprocessor and three sensing functions:
1 Turbidity
1 Conductivity
1 Temperature
FEATURES
1 Low-cost infrared turbidity sensing
1 Multiple sensors in a single package
for simple integration
1 Ratio turbidity output to minimize
common-mode effects
1 Flow-through covers available for
hose applications and simple retrofit
1 On-board microprocessor for signal
conditioning and communications
The sensor can monitor and control an
application process to improve the quality of the process, minimizing the consumption of energy, water, materials and
time.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
1 Parts washers
1 Printed circuit board washers
1 Plating rinse baths
1 Industrial and coin-operated laundry
machines
1 Commercial dishwashers
1 Mixing tanks
1 Water treatment equipment
Each sensor output is conditioned by the
internal microprocessor. All data transmitted to the host system is supplied by
the microprocessor via a 5 VDC serial
communications link. The sensor operates in slave mode, waiting for the host
system to request sensor information.
