Model No : IPM-BOD-303

Advanced Respirometric BOD Analysis System for Water & Wastewater Testing manufacturer, supplier, and exporter, Mumbai-India.

The INSTRUMEX BOD Analyzer (Model: IPM-BOD-303) is a high-precision instrument designed for the accurate determination of Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) in water and wastewater samples. Utilizing the respirometric (manometric) measurement principle, the analyzer provides fully automated BOD analysis without the need for titration or continuous manual intervention.

The system is ideal for environmental laboratories, wastewater treatment plants (WWTP), sewage treatment plants (STP), industrial facilities, research institutions, and regulatory monitoring applications. With simultaneous multi-sample testing capability, automatic CO₂ absorption, and integrated stirring systems, the analyzer ensures reliable, accurate, and repeatable results while simplifying laboratory operations.

How It Works

The IPM-BOD-303 operates on the respirometric (manometric) principle, where microorganisms present in the sample consume dissolved oxygen while degrading biodegradable organic matter.

As oxygen is consumed, a pressure change occurs inside the sealed sample bottle. Carbon dioxide generated during the biological process is automatically absorbed, allowing the instrument to accurately determine the oxygen demand based on pressure variation.

The analyzer continuously monitors the process and automatically calculates the BOD value without requiring chemical titration, making the testing process faster, safer, and more reliable.
