Turbidity Sensor with Module

Turbidity Sensor with Module

A turbidity sensor with module is an electronic device used to measure the cloudiness or clarity of water, which indicates the presence of suspended particles such as sediments, algae, or other contaminants. The sensor uses an optical method where an infrared or visible light source shines into the water, and a photodetector measures how much light is scattered or absorbed. The module processes the sensor signal and outputs an analog voltage that corresponds to the turbidity level. These sensors are widely used in water quality monitoring, environmental sensing, aquaculture, and DIY projects with microcontrollers such as Arduino or ESP32.
