three. Water transparency sensor installation and electrical connections
1.Installation

Note: The sensor cannot be installed upside down or horizontally, and must be installed at an angle of at least 15 degrees.
2. Electrical installation
The cable is a 5-core shielded wire, wire sequence definition: brown - power cord (12~24VDC)
Black - Ground (GND)
Blue-485A Green-485B
Yellow-4-20mA current output (can be left floating if not used)
The wiring sequence should be carefully checked before powering on to avoid unnecessary losses caused by wiring errors.
Four. Water transparency sensor maintenance and care
1.Use and maintenance
Conventional electrodes require periodic cleaning and calibration, and the maintenance cycle is determined by the customer based on his or her own working conditions. Conventional electrode cleaning method: use a soft brush to remove attachments (be careful to avoid scratching the electrode surface), then clean with distilled water, and then perform calibration operations.
Plant Growth Monitoring is a pole-mounted online monitoring device that can simultaneously and in real-time detect key parameters such as water temperature, conductivity, pH, and dissolved oxygen. This device integrates multiple sensors, avoiding the need for dispersed deployment of single-parameter devices, significantly improving water quality monitoring efficiency and data correlation, and comprehensively assessing water environmental quality. It is suitable for monitoring drinking water, industrial, and irrigation water sources....
The Stainless Steel Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge is the most classic rain gauge. It collects rainwater through an inclined funnel. When the rainwater reaches a certain amount, the tipping bucket below tilts and dumps the water. After the sensor detects this action, the rainfall can be determined.It can...
The Star Array Weather Instrument is an integrated handheld agricultural environmental and meteorological monitoring terminal. Equipped with industrial-grade sensors and intelligent chips, it can simultaneously collect more than sixteen environmental parameters. It is suitable for agricultural...
The Fengtu Small Automatic Weather Station simultaneously conducts real-time monitoring of six core meteorological parameters: wind speed, wind direction, temperature, humidity, air pressure, and optical rainfall. The wind speed and direction sensors have a range of 0 to 60 m/s, with an accuracy of...
