Turbidity Sensor Library for Proteus V1.0: Water Quality with Arduino

Turbidity Sensor Library for Proteus V1.0: the turbidity sensor with its STATUS panel and the Advance pop-up

Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. Today, I am going to share the new Turbidity Sensor Library for Proteus V1.0 . A turbidity sensor tells you how cloudy water is: how much fine mud, clay, algae or other particles float in it. It is the sensor behind many water quality projects - a filter that should give clear water, an aquarium, a fish pond, a rain water tank, a washing machine that checks its rinse water, or a river monitor after heavy rain. The usual module for Arduino is a white plastic probe with a U-shaped tip and a small blue adapter board with an A / D switch and a threshold potentiometer. Behind the part sits our own model , written from the maker's published data. It gives the voltage the real board gives for the water in the beaker - 4.2 V in clear water, lower as t ...

TDS Meter Library for Proteus V1.0: TDS Sensor with Arduino

TDS Meter Library for Proteus V1.0: the TDS sensor with its STATUS panel and the Advance pop-up

Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. Today, I am going to share the new TDS Meter Library for Proteus V1.0 . A TDS sensor tells you how much salt and minerals your water carries: tap water, drinking water from a filter, an aquarium, a hydroponics tank or a pool. The usual board for Arduino is a small blue TDS meter with a two-pin waterproof probe. It sends a tiny AC current through the water, and the cleaner the water, the less current flows. The board turns that into a voltage on its A pin, and your Arduino turns the voltage into ppm . Behind the part sits our own model , written from the board maker's published data. It gives the voltage the real board gives for the water in the beaker, with the published conversion, the 2 % per degree that conductivity rises with the temperatu ...
