Abstract
A multiparameter fiber optic probe was designed to test drinking water. The probe consists of pH, temperature and calcium ions sensors, which are base d on the absorbance changes of an appropriate reagent. The sensors are comb ined in a form of the head made from Teflon. Light emitting diodes (LEDs) a re used as light sources and they are matched to maximum absorbance of the reagents. A measurement system is governed by a special software developed in LabWindows.
