Turbidity Sensors
Turbidity sensors measure the amount of light that is scattered by the suspended solids in water. As the amount of total suspended solids (TSS) in water increases, the water's turbidity level (and cloudiness or haziness) increases. Turbidity sensors are used in river and stream gaging, wastewater and effluent measurements, control instrumentation for settling ponds, sediment transport research, and laboratory measurements.

Distance Sensors - Functionality & How They Work
Distance sensors do not only measure the interval between the sensor and an object: A distance measurement sensor can determine fill levels, measure the dimensions of objects, check the positions of vehicles or objects and avoid collisions by detecting obstacles. In the industrial sector, more and more companies are using radar sensors for distance measurement. The reason: In comparison to an ultrasonic or laser distance sensor, radar sensors are able to measure reliably even in the presence of steam, smoke, dust, dirt, vibrations or extreme temperatures.
