Hello – I was hoping some of you would be willing to look at a project I found that I want to integrate with my arduino. I think have everything in my cart at digikey but I'm not sure, I'm just learning how to read these diagrams so I have to ask.
I posted the links below anybody have the time to review my order and see if I missed anything to complete this build? I have a power supply and bread board but I'm just learning how to read these diagrams so I have to ask.
i'm not expert on coding the arduino but do you mean that we can connect a pH or ORP electrod to the arduino and read the value on a browser for example?
Hey Mike! Thanks for looking over the parts for me. I am def in need of the easier to solder DIP 8 module I'm glad you caught that!
This is the one you would recommend?
ata - This thing should let us connect a standard PH probe like with a BNC connector
and read it as 0-5v's or the circuit above shows that it can also be wired up to display 0-14v's for going to a voltmeter or cheap voltmeter display.
This will still require code to calibrate the device, which will take me forever because of all the other projects I'm working through at the moment. If someone else wants to get involved to help speed this up I might be able to lend out the hardware if it actually works?.
If you are looking for a fast and easy solution : a reasonably cheap alternative that allows immediate interfacing between Arduino and pH probe is the pH/ORP Adapter - 1130_0B at Phidgets costs 30$ and has ideal inverted signal, 525mV offset and 4.75 gain. I have to admit: I tried the self-build option and failed.
This phidget has good gain which allows for more precise A/D conversions by the Arduino. Other interfaces (Vernier) only have 2.2 gain, resulting in larger margins of error.
