- Challenge OLR Respirometer | Continuous Measurement Up Level  
  Overview Features Application Specifications Support


The Challenge OLR on-line respirometer provides continuous monitoring of the oxygen uptake rate in your activated sludge process. Influent wastewater is pumped into the respirometer's reaction vessel along with mixed liquor from the aeration basin. Using volume ratios similar to those used in your treatment plant operation produces a continuous measure of oxygen uptake rate (OUR). This OUR can be used as a parameter for regulating air flow, controlling solids retention time, or responding to inflows that can potentially cause plant upsets. Additionally, correlations of OUR with 5-day BOD tests provides a short term measure of Biochemical Oxygen Demand.
