The TDS Sensor Kit is designed to measure the Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) level in water, helping you assess water cleanliness and quality. Fully compatible with Arduino and other 3.3V/5V microcontrollers, this kit enables real-time monitoring and easy integration into automation systems.
It is ideal for domestic water systems, hydroponics, aquaculture, environmental monitoring, and educational projects.
What is TDS?
TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) represents the total concentration of dissolved substances in water, measured in parts per million (ppm).
TDS measurement is commonly used as a quick reference indicator of water quality.
Why Choose This Kit?
Handheld TDS meters are affordable but cannot transmit data for logging or automation. Professional laboratory instruments offer advanced features but are often expensive.
This Analog TDS Sensor Kit provides a balanced solution:
-
Arduino-compatible for easy system integration
-
Real-time analog output for monitoring and data collection
-
Plug-and-play design with no soldering required
-
Cost-effective for DIY and embedded applications
