Description
The HomeLab-pH is a circuit board intended for pH measurements. The board may be used at home or professionally for a wide range of applications as monitoring of aquarium water quality, fermentation progress of beverage and wine, routine skin pH or urine pH checks. Will be useful as well at school in chemistry classes. The measured values are corrected for temperature changes by means of an included waterproof thermometer.Immersed electrical appliances (e.g. aquarium pumps) may influence the measured pH value due to the high impedance of the pH-probe. Our Isol module added functionality effectively protects the HomeLab-pH digital and power lines from the interfering direct currents. Find both modules in a bundle here:

The HomeLab-pH module is just a measuring block. It has to be assisted by an external CPU-board and corresponding software to perform the calculations. Software packages for Raspberry Pi computer, Arduino controller and ESP8266 modules are freely available to download from the HomeLab-pH companion site at homelab.link. They give the user interface to log and visualize the measured values, as well as to calibrate the board.
When connected to Arduino or ESP8266 the module can be controlled by the user visually at the console. Alternatively both can act as a data server for HomeLab-pH, which can be accessed by a remote machine through a special communication protocol. The user may program additional functionality using the available HomeLab_pH library for Arduino IDE.
As an expansion board to Raspberry Pi viewing the readings or calibrating is as simple as pointing a smart-phone browser to the Pi's LAN address. The module can also be accessed at the RPi console or even with requests over http.

pH range: 0 ÷ 14 pH
pH resolution: 0.01 pH
Board specification
input voltage range:
-900 mV ÷ 2048 mV
supply voltage:
3.3 to 5 V
resolution
pH 3 - pH 11:
0.002 pH
pH inaccuracy*:
not more than 0.05 pH (temperature adjusted)
overall dimensions, W:H:D:
57 : 23 : 36 mm (2.2 : 0.91 : 1.4 in)
board dimensions, W:D:
56 : 20 mm (2.20 : 0.79 in)
* The inaccuracy of the measurement depends on the precision of the performed calibration. The specified value is valid for 2-point calibration where the buffers' inaccuracy is not greater than 0.02 pH units and their temperature difference with the sample is less than 5°C. If calibration buffers of ± 0.01 pH are used, the inaccuracy of the measured pH value may be even lower.
