Clarifier level
In small wastewater treatment facilities with only one clarifier, it is advantageous to know the clarifier’s surface level. In larger plants where influent flow is routed through a splitter box to many clarifiers, there may be insufficient room inside the splitter box to accommodate level instrumentation. In this instance level monitoring of the clarifier will help attain proper load balance.
Challenge
Continuous monitoring of the clarifier level will maximize efficient treatment flow within primary and secondary sedimentation areas where the majority of suspended solids are removed.

Splitter box level
Wastewater treatment facilities with a large number of primary clarifiers often employ a concrete tank with chambers and gates known as a splitter box, or distribution box, to split the influent flow into multiple streams that are routed into the bank of clarifiers. A similar device may also be used to split mixed liquor flows between secondary clarifiers.
