What is a PID control for an EC measurement?
What is the purpose of PID control here?The purpose of PID control is to keep the EC value constant around a desired setpoint, e.g. 2.0 mS/cm. If EC is too low → adjust pump with nutrients.If EC is too high → dilute water or reduce dosage. How does the PID control work in this application? […]
How can you measure EC in water?
You can read what EC is in this article 🠪 Measuring Electric Conductivity (EC) in water is very important for growing plants, flowers, vegetables and fruit. This is because the EC value indicates the salt content of the water. The more salt the water contains, the better the water conducts and the EC meter measures […]
What is EC?
The EC value, in short, is the conductivity of a solution. EC is an English abbreviation and stands for Electrical Conductivity. The EC value increases as more ions (charged particles) are included in a solution. These ions include various types of salts and can be residues of, for example, fertilisers (Potassium, Nitrate etc.) or other […]
