EC and PH Soil Sensor is for soil measurement and observation. It detects soil EC & PH, with 5-30V wide voltage, RS485 output, fast response & stable output. Expandable with Arduino UNO R3 + TTL-485 board. IP68 protection, 316 stainless steel probe (rust-proof, waterproof, corrosion-resistant). Auto temperature compensation for EC ensures accuracy. Small, long-burial in soil, suitable for various soil types.

1. Example Code for Arduino-Read EC and PH
This project demonstrates how to use the RS485 Soil Sensor (EC&PH) with Arduino UNO R3 to read real-time soil EC and PH values and print them to the Arduino IDE serial monitor. Users will learn how to establish RS485 communication using the ModBus-RTU protocol, send query frames to the sensor, receive and parse response frames, and convert raw data into readable EC and PH values.
