Turbidity Sensor with Module

This
is a Turbidity Sensor with Module, an electronic monitoring module
specially developed to work with microcontroller platforms Arduino,
Raspberry Pi, PIC, ARM, AVR, among others.

It
is very efficient, the Arduino Turbidity Sensor is able to detect and
verify the quality of the water, making the turbidity measurement, where
it is possible to verify the results by means of digital or analog
signal next to the corresponding pins in the accompanying electronic
module.

The
Turbidity Sensor emits at its end an infrared light, imperceptible to
human vision, capable of detecting particles that are suspended in
water, measuring the light transmittance and the dispersion rate, which
changes according to the Amount of TSS (Total Suspended Solids),
increasing the turbidity of the liquid whenever levels increase.

In
general, the Arduino Turbidity Sensor is applied in projects involving
the monitoring of water turbidity in rivers, streams, lakes, water
bodies, catchment and research sites, laboratories, tanks with liquids
and so on. This Turbidity Sensor has an end specially prepared for
direct contact, having an electronic module to amplify and send the
received data to the microcontroller of the project

Theory of Operation

The
sensor operates on the principle that when the light is passed through a
sample of water, the amount of light transmitted through the sample is
dependent on the amount of soil in the water. As the soil level
increases, the amount of transmitted light decreases. The turbidity
sensor measures the amount of transmitted light to determine the
turbidity of the wash water. These turbidity measurements are sent to
the dishwasher controller, which makes decisions on how long to wash in
all the cycles.

These
decisions are made on the basis of a comparison between clean water
measurements (taken at the beginning of the wash cycle) and the wash
water turbidity measurement taken at the end of each wash cycle. By
measuring the turbidity of the wash water, the dishwasher can conserve
energy on lightly soiled loads by only washing as long as necessary.
This will result in energy savings for the consumer.
