Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To measure water in real time and improve handling working efficiency by displaying a measurement result on a water quality display being arranged above water based on ultrasonic signals being received by an ultrasonic receiver that is buried near a water surface. SOLUTION: The water quality measuring instrument 1 consisting of a water quality sensor 2, an ultrasonic transmitter 6, and the like is arranged under water. The water quality sensor 2 measures underwater ion concentration, turbidity, and the like, allows its measurement signal to be converted to voltage by a preamplifier 3, allows it to be converted to a digital signal by an A/D converter 4, allows it to be subjected to operational processing by a microprocessor unit 5, and then allows it to be outputted as the on/off signal of ultrasonic waves by the transmitter 6. An ultrasonic receiver 7 is arranged near the upper water surface of the transmitter 6, receives the on/off signal from the transmitter 6, transmits water quality measurement data to a water quality display 8 via a cable 9, and displays the measurement value on the display 8 in real time.
