Multisensor Systems

Multisensor Systems Multisensor Systems Ltd is a developer & supplier of monitors for detection of VOCs and THMs in water & air.

The instruments are used by water utilities industrial companies & environmental agencies. Multisensor Systems started life in the University of Manchester. The company was the brainchild of Professor Krishna Persaud, an acknowledged authority in the development of sensors for the detection of gases. The original development was for an instrument to detect heavy organic loads in waste water, allowing treatment works to respond to the loading with changes in dosing or storage of waste until it could be processed. This was followed by an instrument to detect very low concentrations of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in clean water to protect drinking water treatment plants. This instrument became the MS1000 which Multisensor ships today. The success of the MS1000 caused the University of Manchester Intellectual Property (UMIP) company to inject seed funding and establish Multisensor Systems Ltd as an entity in 2007. In 2009, with sales increasing there then became the need for full time management and support staff and so the company sought funding to take it to the next stage of development. This funding was won in March 2010 and the first staff employed. The company moved from the University campus at the end of August 2010 to premises in the South of Manchester. Now the company is broadening it's offering to on line THM measurement in the water distribution network and widening the application base for its products and the geographical markets in which it sells.

While our team promotes the Oil in Water Analysers and the THM analysers worldwide, our service engineer keeps HUNDREDS of analysers running all over the UK.

With over 250+ analysers installed in the UK, many with an active service contract, this is not an easy task, but our service engineers keep them running in optimal conditions.

If you have one of our instruments, we have a worldwide network of distributors that keep these analysers running with continuous support and service.

A great THANK YOU to André Caramello and the whole AMAZING team of Clean Environment Brasil for 4 amazing days of meetings and opportunities at in San Paolo, Brazil last week.

Showcasing our Oil in Water and THM analysers at this exhibition was a great way to educate customers on the benefits of:
- a THM analyser that does not use reagents and
- an oil in water monitor that is not affected by turbidity

all thanks to our contactless measurement technique based on Henry's Law.

It was a great honor to be in Chile last week with Yalitech Instruments at the XXVIII Jornadas de Calidad de Aguas y Control de Procesos (https://lnkd.in/deMEZGAu) organised by AIDIS Chile, a great event in Chile on water quality, challenges and solutions.

It was particularly interesting to see how the awareness of the problems associated with in water increases by the day and how some emerging parameters, such as , are getting higher and higher on the agenda on water companies worldwide.

What an incredibly valuable two days at the Produced Water Conference - UK Edition!

​It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with leading produced water experts, gain deep insights into the North Sea landscape and discuss the future trends shaping the industry.

​A huge thank you to the organizers for giving us the opportunity to present our technology and share our latest case studies. The feedback and insights we received on how to bridge our water industry expertise into the O&G sector were incredibly valuable.

​One of my biggest takeaways was how critically important Oil-in-Water (OiW) online monitoring is becoming for both asset protection and preventive maintenance. Enhancing instrumentation and delivering high-quality data is essential not only for operational success but also for protecting both current and future deployments.

​Stay tuned: we have some exciting product announcements coming!

As we proceed with more and more installations of the MS1200-S Oil in Water analyser in the UK and abroad, these are the main improvements that customers appreciate compared with the previous versions:

1) Better interface: all the data is easily accessible, from VOC concentration, to temperature, airflow and humidity

2) Easier data download in CVS format on a USB stick

3) Higher accuracy: thanks to the reduced electrical noise and improved sensor management

4) Easier and more compact installation

Thanks to these and other improvement, our MS1200-S has really become almost a plug-and-play oil in water analyser that allows for continuous measurement of VOCs at water intakes, effluent discharges and other critical points.

We’ve just finished walking the Water Equipment Show 2026 in Telfor and the focus across the industry is clear: the future of water is even more data-driven & connected, sustainable (tighter regulations) and sustainable.

At Multisensor Systems , these themes hit home. Our no-contact sensor technology from monitoring VOCs in drinking water to detecting oil in wastewater is designed specifically to:
- Reduce Maintenance: No sensor fouling means fewer site visits
- Drive Efficiency: Real-time (every 2 seconds), continuous data helps utilities react instantly to pollution events.
- Future-Proof Infrastructure: Providing the high-sensitivity monitoring with different communication protocols to connect with your smart water networks.

It was fantastic to see so many customers (such as Severn Trent, SWW and United Utilities) and partners there. The conversations we had there were most on how we can do more with less: protecting assets and ensuring water quality with smarter technology.

It was inspiring to see the innovations in technical sessions on Room D. We’re coming away from Telford with new ideas and even stronger partnerships to help our customers with their challenges.

Groundwater protection starts with better monitoring.

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) can migrate through soil and groundwater undetected for long periods, creating environmental, regulatory, and operational risks.

That’s why continuous borehole monitoring is becoming increasingly important across contaminated land, landfill, industrial, and remediation projects.

The MS1200-S provides a reliable solution for real-time VOC monitoring in boreholes, helping operators detect changes early, improve site safety, and make faster data-driven decisions.

Key benefits include:
âś” Continuous monitoring instead of periodic spot checks
âś” Early detection of VOC migration
âś” Better insight for remediation

As environmental standards continue to tighten, proactive monitoring is no longer optional — it’s essential.

Technology like the MS1200-S is helping the industry move from reactive investigation to predictive environmental management.
