4.6 Drinking water reservoirs<br />
General<br />
The outlay for drinking water treatment depends on the available natural water. Drinking water reservoirs<br />
or dams, for example, are a source of drinking water. The nature of the water in the supply<br />
system is normally very constant. In the reservoir, the weather itself can affect the condition of the<br />
water (long dry spell, heavy rainfall). A high supply of nutrients can lead to a massive development<br />
of phytoplankton (algae) within a few days. These can die again just as quickly. Storm water runoff<br />
can have an effect within a few hours. As a consequence, <strong>measurement</strong> setups that can provide information<br />
on the water condition, e.g. turbidity, oxygen content, <strong>pH</strong> value, electrical conductivity<br />
and water temperature, both quickly and without undue effort, are required for monitoring the reservoir.<br />
Measurement setup<br />
There are no real problems with the <strong>measurement</strong>. Depending on the <strong>measurement</strong> point, a <strong>measurement</strong><br />
setup with a immersion or flow-through fitting is adequate.<br />
