Maintaining the proper concentration of dissolved oxygen (DO) in an aeration basin is necessary to keep microorganisms alive for the breakdown of organic waste. This can only be efficiently accomplished by using an accurate, continuous monitoring system.
In addition, the incorrect amount of dissolved oxygen in an aeration tank can have costly consequences. By equipping your aeration basins with an accurate, continuous monitoring system, you'll be able to maintain the appropriate amount of dissolved oxygen — helping you reduce energy costs.
Roughly 70% of energy expenses in your wastewater plant go towards powering blowers to aerate the wastewater. Many plants aerate 24/7 and maintain a higher dissolved oxygen level than necessary, which leads to wasted energy and higher energy costs.
With Hach's Luminescent Dissolved Oxygen (LDO) Sensors, you can ensure automated aeration equipment runs only when necessary — helping you gain substantial savings annually on energy costs.

Our dissolved oxygen sensors provide reliable measurements for municipal and industrial applications, including harsh environments such as chemical plants or challenging nuclear power applications.
Hach® has a breadth of product solutions to support ultrapure, pure and non-pure applications and configuration probes for accurate dissolved oxygen sensor readings including luminescent dissolved oxygen probes with electrolyte free sensors.
This optical probe has no membranes which need to be replaced or electrolyte solution to replenish, making it virtually maintenance free.
An advanced laboratory meter that takes the guesswork out of measurements.
Hach’s RTC (Real-Time Control) solutions are complete off-the-shelf systems that adjust treatment processes in real-time, keeping your facility compliant while reducing treatment costs.
Optimizes nitrification processes by adjusting DO concentration in real-time through continuous measurement of ammonia load.
Designed specifically for oxidation ditches and sequencing batch reactor.
