Water Quality Monitoring

Water quality monitoring is crucial for ensuring public health, protecting aquatic ecosystems, and meeting regulatory standards. By regularly tracking parameters such as pH, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, and the presence of contaminants, water treatment facilities and other industries can quickly detect anomalies, minimize risks, and maintain compliance. Frequent monitoring also helps optimize treatment processes, supporting more sustainable and efficient water management.


Water Quality Monitoring Methods with TPS Devices


Use a Third-Party Modbus Sensor

AppBlocks and TPS devices offer strong support for third-party Modbus equipment, so almost any RS485 Modbus device can be connected to a TPS unit. Use the Module Tibbit #02 or #05 for RS485 and the Connector Tibbit #20 (or #21) for terminal connections. You will also need to power your Modbus device. Tibbit #05 has a low-power +5V output, which is sufficient for our Bus Probes, but other Modbus devices may have different power requirements.

For Modbus devices with power requirements higher than 5V, you may also supply your own power.
