It uses an electrode constant of K=1 and can output conductivity, salinity, TDS and temperature data for multi-parameter water quality monitoring.Communication is via RS485 using the standard ModBus-RTU protocol, making it suitable for PLCs, industrial gateways, Arduino microcontrollers and DFRobot LoRaWAN projects. DFRobot provides tutorials for connecting the sensor to Arduino development boards and LoRaWAN hardware so you can set up a test environment and monitor data in real time.A built-in temperature sensor provides automatic temperature compensation, helping maintain accurate readings as conditions change. The sensor is factory calibrated and ready to use, with a 1413μS/cm conductivity calibration solution included for optimising accuracy after prolonged use via register settings.The package includes the RS485 Water Quality Electrical Conductivity Sensor (K=1) x1, 5m sensor cable x1, 1413μS/cm conductivity calibration solution 100ml x1, black protective mesh x1 and cable ties x2.Features:4-in-1 Multi-Parameter Output: Built-in algorithms allow you to read Electrical Conductivity (1~2000 μS/cm), Salinity (0~1000 ppm), TDS (0~1100 ppm), and Temperature simultaneously.Industrial-Grade Durability: The integrated housing and 5-meter cable boast a true IP68 waterproof rating, perfect for continuous, long-term submersion.Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC): A built-in temperature sensor automatically adjusts readings (-20°C~+60°C range), guaranteeing pinpoint accuracy regardless of environmental fluctuations.Effortless IoT Integration: Operates on a wide 10~30V DC power supply and utilizes RS485 (ModBus-RTU), making it plug-and-play ready for PLCs, industrial gateways, and Arduino microcontrollers.Out-of-the-Box Ready: Factory calibrated for immediate use. We also include a free 1413μS/cm calibration solution, allowing you to easily optimize accuracy via simple register settings down the road.Specifications:Power Supply Voltage: 10~30V DCPower Consumption: 0.4WCommunication Interface: RS485 (Standard ModBus-RTU protocol)Measurement Range - Conductivity: K=1: 1~2000 μS/cmMeasurement Range - Temperature: -20°C~+60°CMeasurement Range - Salinity: K=1: 0~1000 ppmMeasurement Range - TDS: K=1: 0~1100 ppmMeasurement Accuracy - Conductivity: ±1%FSMeasurement Accuracy - Temperature: ±0.5°CResolution - Conductivity: 0.1 μS/cmResolution - Temperature: 0.1°CTemperature Compensation Range: -20°C~+60°CTemperature Compensation Coefficient: Default 0.02Response Time: ＜1SOperating Temperature: -20°C~+80°CWaterproof Rating: IP68Pressure Resistance: 0.6MPaCable Length: 5mHousing Material: Corrosion-resistant plasticIt is well suited to aquaculture, tap water monitoring, drinking water treatment, hydroponics and agricultural irrigation where long-term submerged water quality monitoring is required. **Product Type:** Water Quality Sensor ## Images - [Image 1](https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkDSMACSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--37ffeab27f8dc8ab64051328813d0037808049d9/SEN0706_Main_01.jpg) - [Image 2](https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkDS8ACSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--4ff588350080ab75901c1c54159bc102fa716a62/SEN0706_Dim_02.jpg) - [Image 3](https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkDTsACSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--2a5486a1eb42238384912465b364a6a6fe11a8a9/SEN0706_Detail_04.jpg) - [Image 4](https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkDUsACSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--59225153a190b2c801001d6a7ebb27095af063d8/SEN0706_Detail_05.jpg) - [Image 5](https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkDVMACSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--c2990c09821bf046a0e4018233de5494b378e23a/SEN0706_ShipList_05.jpg) --- ## Finding & Searching Products If a part listed here isn't quite what you need, you can search Little Bird Electronics' full catalogue: - **Search by keyword:** `GET https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/products.md?q={search_term}` — searches title, vendor, SKU, tags, and MPN - **Search via JSON:** `GET https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/products.json?q={search_term}` — structured JSON results - **Browse by collection:** `GET https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/collections/{handle}.json` — products in a specific collection - **Filter in-stock only:** `GET https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/products.md?q={term}&in_stock=1` - **Individual product detail:** `GET https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/products/{handle}.md` — full specs, pricing, stock levels, variants Search supports multi-word queries (AND logic).
