14. Device (1) according to claim 12 or 13, wherein a IR source and a IR receiver is arranged in the off-line loop arrangement (3).
15. Device (1) according to any of claims 1-14, wherein the sensor system(10) is arranged for measurement of at least water quality and wherein thesensor system (10) is connected to a control unit, and wherein the device (1)also comprises at least two separation points (30), wherein one firstseparation point (30) is positioned within the device (1) to allow forrecirculation of clean water or separation of a first separated stream of waternot intended to be recirculated in the device (1 ), and wherein one secondseparation point (30) is arranged for fractionation of the first separated stream 14of water in at least one high quality water stream and in one low quality water stream, and wherein a decision of recirculation or separation is made by the control unit based on the measurement of water quality.
16. Device (1) according to any of claims 1-14, wherein the sensor system(10) is arranged for measurement of at least water quality and wherein thesensor system (10) is connected to a control unit, and wherein the device (1)also comprises a separation point (30) within the device (1) to allow forrecirculation of clean water or separation of at least two separated streams ofwater not intended to be recirculated in the device (1), wherein the at leasttwo separated streams of water differ in water quality, and wherein a decisionof recirculation or separation is made by the control unit based on the measurement of water quality.
17. l\/lethod for measurement of water quality in a device (1) according to anyof claims 1-16, wherein the method comprises using a sensor system (10)comprising a camera module (80) to take one or more images in flashes andin a dark environment around the camera module (80), and sending imagedata to a control unit which decides if water should be recycled or discardedin a point of separation (30) based on the image data and/or to a computer unit collecting data about water quality and/or water content.
18. l\/lethod according to claim 17, wherein the method involves calculating one or more water quality parameters from the one or more images.
19. l\/lethod according to claim 17 or 18, wherein the method involves analyzing images with respect to colour and/or size of bubbles, if present.
20. l\/lethod according to any of claims 17-19, wherein the method also involves detecting particles.
21. Method according to any of claims 17-20, wherein the method also comprises measurement of content of substances in the water and sending data on the content of substances to the control unit and/or the computer unit.
22. l\/lethod according to any of claims 17-21, wherein the method comprisesmeasuring at least one other parameter in one or more sensors in the sensorsystem (10) and sending data thereof to the control unit and/or the computer unit.
23. l\/lethod according to any of claims 17-22, wherein the method comprisesdirecting part of a water flow to an off-line loop arrangement (3) where the one or more images are taken.
24. l\/lethod according to claim 23, wherein the method also comprisesmeasuring at least one other parameter in the water in one or more sensorsin the off-line loop arrangement (3) and sending this data to the control unit and/or the computer unit.
