This industrial-grade water quality Blue Green Algae sensor based on the fluorescence principle. The probe and housing are integrated into a single unit, resulting in a simple and convenient design. It is used for accurately measuring cyanobacteria concentration in water, with a measurement range of 0-300,000 cells/ml, a resolution of 1 cell/ml, and an accuracy of ±5% FS. The sensor utilizes a fiber optic light path design and incorporates a filtering algorithm, providing strong resistance to external light interference.

Overview of RS485 Water Quality Blue Green Algae Sensor

The Blue Green Algae sensor is equipped with an RS485 communication interface and supports the standard ModBus-RTU protocol. Tutorials are provided for connecting the sensor to Arduino development boards and DFRobot LoRaWAN, allowing for quick setup of a testing environment and real-time data monitoring. It features a built-in temperature sensor with automatic temperature compensation, ensuring accurate and reliable data output under varying environmental conditions.

Measurement data of RS485 Water Quality Blue Green Algae Sensor

The Blue Green Algae sensor is rigorously calibrated before leaving the factory and is ready for use upon arrival, requiring no further calibration. It has an overall waterproof rating of IP68, allowing for long-term submersion in water, making it suitable for algae research and monitoring in rivers, lakes, and ponds.
