> 500: Poor State
TDS pen is commonly used for TDS detection. Although it is cheap and easy to use, it can not transmit data to the control system for long-term on-line monitoring and water quality analysis. The use of specialized instruments, although the data can be transmitted, the accuracy is high, but the price is very expensive. To this end, we specially introduced this Arduino compatible TDS sensor, connected to the Arduino controller, can be used to measure the TDS value of water.
The product is specially designed for Arduino, plug and play, and is simple and convenient to use. 3.3-5.5V wide-voltage power supply, 0-2.3V analog signal output, so that this product is compatible with 5V, 3.3V control system, can be very convenient to connect to the ready-made control system. The AC signal is used as the excitation source in the measurement, which can effectively prevent the polarization of the probe, prolong the life of the probe and increase the stability of the output signal. The TDS probe is a water-proof probe and can be immersed in water for a long time.
The product can be applied to water quality detection in the fields of domestic water and water culture. With this sensor, you can easily DIY a set of TDS detector, easy to detect the cleanliness of water, for your water quality close.
Be careful:
TDS probe can not be used in water above 55 C.
The location of TDS probe should not be too close to the edge of the container, otherwise it will affect the indication.
The head and wire of TDS probe are waterproof and can be immersed in water, but the connection interface and signal transfer board are not waterproof. Please pay attention to the use.
