pH Sensors: DFRobot vs Atlas EZO class embedded pH circuit for some demo settings - demonstration of pH


Recommended Posts

good day dear friends on Neonwin,

 


I want to make a simple ph meter and display the ph value on an OLED/LCD display. I think I can learn a lot from this project; Something about the construction and functioning of the pH sensor. Last but not least - if the system has to be calibrated (which I don't necessarily "have to" have - then I would just "take it with me".  Then I learn the calibration method that determines the accuracy and accuracy of the sensor.


But - as I said: actually I would like to get around the calibration.


If that's possible.

the options:

a. DFRobot Gravity Analog pH Sensor
b. EZO TM class embedded pH circuit: This is an ... - TI E2  by : The Atlas Scientific EZO™

btw: I note that the Atlas Scientific EZO has a pH resolution of +/-0.002 - well i do not really need that high resolution!!! So i guess that i have to choose the DFRoboat Gravity
but here the comparison:  which one is the best one!?  to test water, Coffee, Tea, and so on (beverages)

 

see the both examples:

EZO TM class embedded pH circuit This is an ... - TI E2E

The Atlas Scientific EZO™ class pH circuit, has a flexible calibration protocol, allowing for single point, two point, or three point calibration. The other two ...
https://www.amazon.com/Atlas-Scientific-Embedded-Circuit-001-14/dp/B00641R1PQ
Features
• Full range pH reading from .001 to 14.000
• Accurate pH readings down to the
thousandths place (+/- 0.02)
• Temperature dependent or temperature
independent readings
• Flexible calibration protocol supports single point,
2 point, or 3 point calibration

DescriptionThe Atlas Scientific™ EZO™ class embedded pH circuit, is our 6th generation embedded pH circuit. This EZO class pH circuit, offers the highest level of stability and accuracy. With proper configuration the EZO class pH circuit, can meet, or
exceed the accuracy and precision found in most bench top laboratory grade pH meters. The pH-EZO™ pH circuit, can work with any off-the-shelf pH probe/ sensor/electrode. This device reads pH from a pH probe/sensor/electrode. This
device does not include a pH probe/sensor/electrode.
btw: i think i will stick to the b.- the Atlas Scientific™ EZO™ class embedded pH circuit

 

i look forward to hear from you

Further steps:  i think about the interface:
a. Arduino
b. raspberryPi
c. ESP 32 /8266 ....!?  


i will create a Frizzing plan : where i take care for the periphery

. power supply
. Display
. resistors, capacities etc. etx
. OP-AMP etc. etx.

I look forward to hear from you

Good to know what you want to do. Since you found the parts and got alot of links to read what do you want here? Should we read everything for you and tell  you how to build it? What're you asking?

 

Want to know which is better? Read the specs and find out.

    • I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
    • Full ACK. I went too far adressing your post specifically. And as you said, it up to us customers as participant of the market dynamic as it happens to decide whether we spend our money on a product or not. The responsibility is to the company. In case of this price hike one could assume that MS is expecting or even starting to see a new interest in XBox hardware so they want to avoid losses per unit sold. I find it fair enough that they granted a period in which everyone interested could grab a unit for the current price (Amazon.de has a reliable stock of XBox Series X digital, which I bought last December after having sold my day one Series X a year ago). It is not that they cash up their customers starting on Monday. Cheers and let's cling to our perfectly fine hardware as long as we deem it worthy in relation to purchasing something new!
    • Not surprising at all. Apple got three months worth of marketing hype with the Macbook Neo's incredible low launch price. They have sowed the idea that the Neo is the best value laptop and that idea will last for years even though the value is no longer there. They do this every five years or so with a single new product that is amazing value which distracts from the rest of their products being horrendously overpriced.
    • I still use speccy on windows systems as a quick sysinfo thing. I know there's better but really it was the first one I used of its type
