Sensors for pH measurement: What is important?
The pH value is important in many areas: A well-known example is drinking water, where the pH value should be between 6.5 and 9.5. This requires constant measurements. This is where pH sensors come into play.
These sensors for determining the pH value accurately determine the extent to which an aqueous solution has an acidic or alkaline character. Manufacturers usually rely on glass electrodes and a gel or solid electrolyte filling.
As a rule, these measurements are about obtaining data on a continuous basis and evaluating it automatically. As a user, you therefore integrate the sensor into an appropriate technical environment. Buy a pH sensor for Raspberry Pi or an Arduino pH sensor here!
pH sensor in practice: examples
These sensors for measuring pH values are widely used. They are indispensable in drinking water treatment. They are also required by law in the food processing industry. In addition, pH sensors can be found in households that have an aquarium or swimming pool, among other things.
pH sensors are also used in research and analysis laboratories. In many cases, users develop individual technical designs with the help of standard sensors, for example a Raspberry Pi pH sensor for evaluation on an industrial assembly line.
Connect your pH sensor to Arduino and Co.
When purchasing a sensor for pH measurement, compatibility with microcontrollers is an important consideration. The ESP32 pH sensor is particularly popular. The advantage of combining a pH sensor and ESP32 is the low purchase price. At the same time, the ESP32 microcontroller impresses with its integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. This proves to be practical for outdoor solutions such as pH value control in swimming pools.
However, you can also connect your pH sensors to other microcontrollers. Worth mentioning are a pH sensor for Raspberry Pi and a pH sensor for Arduino. There are many aspects to consider when making your choice: take into account factors such as handling, processing speed and compatibility with other components.

The optimal solution for your needs: order a pH sensor from EXP Tech
In our online shop for electronics, you will find a durable and precise pH value sensor. Take your time to compare the different models and check whether the sensors meet your technical requirements.
When measuring pH, the pH range, resolution and accuracy shown are particularly important. In addition, it is important to consider how pressure-resistant the pH sensor is. Please also note the combination sensors, which allow you to measure both the pH value and the temperature at the same time. This dual measurement saves you from having to purchase separate sensors!
All sensors for pH values meet high standards. This is guaranteed by brand names such as Dragino. Order these pH sensors conveniently online and benefit from excellent customer service that is specifically tailored to the needs of commercial customers!
