Ammonia Nitrogen
DNH Ammonia Nitrogen Sensor (ISE Method)
Ammonia Nitrogen
Ion-selective electrode ammonia nitrogen sensor for nutrient monitoring in wastewater treatment and surface water.
- ISE measurement method — no reagents, no secondary pollution
- Real-time temperature and pH compensation with synchronous output
- Continuous online monitoring of NH₄⁺-N, pH and temperature
Overview
An ammonia nitrogen sensor continuously measures the ammonium nitrogen (NH₄⁺-N) concentration in water, providing the feedback signal for nitrification control, aeration optimization and nutrient discharge compliance.
The ion-selective electrode (ISE) selectively responds to specific ions in the solution. The ammonia nitrogen ISE consists of a measuring electrode and a reference electrode; by selectively adsorbing ammonium ions, the sensor generates a corresponding potential difference, enabling rapid and accurate measurement. Integrated pH and temperature sensors dynamically compensate environmental factors for stable, reliable readings.
