Water parameters monitoring using wireless remote controlled station

摘要

This paper presents a remote station for measurement of five electro-chemical parameters of water. These parameters monitored and properly calculated or statistically by an algorithm (not discussed in this paper) may indicate changes in water quality where the probes are tracking. This equipment was developed for the low cost of construction, keeping within the parameters of water quality set by the World Health Organization the ability to measure these quantities. Five sensors are used, pH, tubidez, temperature, dissolved oxygen and conductivity. The system operates on battery that is charged by a solar panel and a power manager. The results obtained remotely by a radio link, were compared with measurements of laboratory samples collected in the same location and confirmed the reliability of the station measurement.
