Description

The Water Turbidity Sensor Module is an optical sensing device designed to measure the clarity of liquids by detecting the amount of light scattered by suspended particles. It is widely used in environmental monitoring, water quality analysis, and STEM laboratory experiments to assess water purity and contamination levels.

Key Features

Optical Infrared Detection Principle – Measures turbidity based on light transmission and scattering
Analog and Digital Output – Flexible interfacing with microcontrollers
Adjustable Sensitivity – Onboard potentiometer for threshold setting (digital output mode)
Corrosion-Resistant Probe – Suitable for freshwater applications
Compact Interface Board – Easy integration into embedded systems

Technical Specifications

Operating Voltage: 5V DC
Operating Current: ~30–40 mA
Output Modes:
- Analog voltage output (0–4.5V typical)
- Digital TTL output (adjustable threshold)
Detection Method: Infrared light transmission
Response Time: < 500 ms
Operating Temperature: 5°C to 90°C

Applications

Water quality monitoring systems
Environmental science experiments
Wastewater analysis prototypes
Smart irrigation systems
IoT-based water management projects
Aquaculture monitoring

The module interfaces seamlessly with development platforms such as the Arduino Uno and Raspberry Pi for data acquisition and automated control systems.
