Introduction
This industrial-grade ammonia nitrogen sensor probe and housing feature an integrated design, resulting in a simple and convenient structure. It is used for accurately measuring ammonia nitrogen concentration in water (including free ammonia (NH3) and ammonium ions (NH4+)), with a measurement range of 0~100 mg/L, a resolution of 0.01 mg/L, and an accuracy of ±3% FS.
The ammonia nitrogen sensor is equipped with an RS485 communication interface and supports the standard ModBus-RTU protocol. Tutorials are provided for connecting the sensor to an Arduino development board and DFRobot LoRaWAN, allowing for quick setup of a test environment and real-time data monitoring. The sensor features automatic pH and temperature compensation, ensuring accurate and reliable data output even under varying environmental conditions.
The ammonia nitrogen sensor is rigorously calibrated before leaving the factory and is ready for use upon arrival, requiring no further calibration. It supports two-point electrode calibration via register settings, allowing users to quickly optimize measurement accuracy after prolonged use. With an overall waterproof rating of IP68, it can be submerged in water for extended periods, making it suitable for applications such as aquaculture, wastewater treatment, and environmental monitoring.

Applications
High-Density Aquaculture: Monitor toxic free ammonia levels in fish and shrimp farming tanks in real-time, triggering automated water exchange or aeration systems before livestock is harmed.
Municipal Wastewater Treatment: Deploy in aeration basins to measure nitrification processes, optimizing blower power consumption based on exact ammonia reduction metrics.
Environmental & Ecological Monitoring: Submerge in rivers, lakes, or reservoirs to track agricultural runoff and pollution levels, utilizing LoRaWAN for long-range, continuous ecological data collection.
Smart Hydroponics & Aquaponics: Track nutrient availability within closed-loop irrigation systems, ensuring optimal plant uptake and preventing root burn from ammonia spikes.
