Measuring pH is important within a variety of industries, which can be measured in several ways. While both pH meters and pH paper are portable methods to measure a solution’s pH, pH meters provide more accurate results and color blindness is not an issue as results are displayed on a digital readable display. However, pH …
Testing dissolved oxygen (DO) in water is either measured via chemical analysis such as a titrimetric method, electroanalytical (using galvanic & polarographic probes), optical dissolved oxygen, and colorimetric methods. However, modern techniques mainly use electrochemical or optical sensor methods. Oxygen is not only important in the air we breathe, but it is also an essential …
Salinity is the measurement of salts dissolved in a solution of water. Salinity is measured in percentage (%) or parts per thousand (ppt) and is tested either with a conductivity meter, hydrometer, or refractometer. Salinity is an important water parameter to measure in terms of water quality as different crops, livestock, and aquatic organisms require …
Water covers around 71% of the Earth’s surface, and one of the main issues we are facing today is water pollution. We must reduce water pollution, which is why there are many solutions to combat the problem. Sometimes water becomes polluted with chemicals such as oil, harmful bacteria, and other microorganisms. When water becomes polluted, …
pH is important in hydroponics because plants grown in hydroponic systems require different pH levels than plants grown in soil. Getting the right level of pH is vital as it affects nutrient availability and plant growth. Hydroponic cultivation allows you to grow anywhere, produce higher yields, control the conditions, and fewer resources are needed, thus …
Oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), also known as redox, is the electron exchange potential that measures if a substance (usually liquid) is either oxidized or reduced. ORP is commonly used to measure cleanliness in water systems and the breakdown of waste products, detritus, and contaminants. ORP tells us if water quality is high or low in any …
In this tutorial we will show you how to connect an Atlas Scientific EZO-HUM™ Embedded Humidity Sensor to an Arduino Uno. There are multiple ways to connect Atlas Scientific sensors to your device of choice. In previous posts, we have shown how to wire our EZO™ sensors directly into an Arduino and a Raspberry Pi. …
pH is important for a wide range of industries from aquaculture to wastewater treatments that require an accurate pH reading, especially when it comes down to human safety. Potential for hydrogen, or pH, is a measurement to quantify the chemical conditions (the number of hydrogen ions) of an aqueous solution and is vital in a …
Ever wondered how cannabis growers get the perfect aroma? From growing cannabis to consuming it, it all comes down to humidity. The marijuana industry is booming – generating ~$34 billion every year. As more legal growers take on the challenge, Americans are on the hunt for the best indoor grow rooms (under strict governmental rules …

A flow meter (often referred to as a flow sensor) is a device to measure flow rates of a gas or liquid in many types of applications, for example, liquid passing through a conduit. This can be either via the mass (linear or nonlinear ) or volumetric flow. Despite many flow meters working differently, they …
