Intelligent, bus-compatible connection system for digital se
With JUMO digiLine, JUMO presents a bus-compatible connection system for digital sensors in liquid analysis
which also offers Plug and Play functionality.
JUMO digiLine enables simple construction of sensor networks in which sensors are connected to each other
in a star or tree structure. A single shared signal line is used for communication with the next evaluation unit
or controller. This way plants in which several parameters need to be measured at the same time in different
places can be wired efficiently and quickly.

Swimming pool water
Swimming is a popular and healthy leisure activity – as long as the
water has the right quality. To keep it consistent, swimming pools are
continuously monitored and controlled.

Highly-purified water
Highly-purified water is required in a wide variety of production
processes such as a cleaning agent in the semiconductor industry,
as a cleaning operation after the actual washing with cleaning agents
in the food industry, and for cleaning and dilution purposes in the
pharmaceutical industry.
Whatever water quality you require for your process JUMO products
provide pure water of a quality that you can rely on.

Cooling water
Heat has to be dissipated in many industrial plants. Here, cooling water is
used as the heat carrier in technological processes. Monitoring water
quality makes sense in all applications where water or aqueous solutions
is/are used as the cooling medium or as a cooling additive.
Inductive conductivity sensors by JUMO are the ideal solution for this task.

Wastewater
Wastewater is treated in sewage treatment plants. Biological and
chemical processes as well as mechanical ones are used here.
Whether pressure, level, or flow: with JUMO, you are ready for
everything. Our pressure measuring devices can be adapted to all
wastewater engineering processes.
