DRAGINO · Sensor · NBIoT · Water Quality Sensor · WQS-NB-GE

The Dragino NBIoT water quality sensor series products are designed to measure water quality and provide information on water quality conditions. They consist of a main process unit (WQS-NB) and various sensors.

The sensors include various types such as: pH sensor, ORP sensor, EC sensor, dissolved oxygen sensor and turbidity sensor.

The main process device WQS-NB is an NBIoT RS485 end node for outdoor use that is powered by a built-in lithium-ion battery. WQS-NB reads values from various sensors and uploads this sensor data to the IoT server via an NBIoT connection.
