Install Guide

pH Sensor

Goal: Successful installation of the pH Sensor

The AROYA pH Sensor provides continuous data for Drip or Drain stations. (Other installation types are possible but not covered in this guide.)

Note: It is recommended to calibrate new sensors first, before installation.

Important: (1) Never store the probe dry: always keep storage solution on hand. (2) Install on the same day irrigation begins. (3) Calibration is recommended every 2-3 months for continued accuracy.

What’s in the box

ackage contents including the blue pH sensor probe with a 3-meter cable, the AROYA transmitter nose module with antenna, and a circular inset showing the sensor tip stored inside its fluid-filled storage cap.

Sensor & 3m Cable. Plugs directly into the Gateway. The probe has a modular design to be replaced easily when depleted. Keep the storage cap; this fluid-filled container comes in handy for future probe storage.

What else you need

equired additional equipment showing two pH-compatible replacement lids with cutouts, a siphon tube, and an inset of the AROYA Drip and Drain stations.

A Drip & Drain station and matching kits are required. These allow you to swap your existing lids and siphons for versions that support the pH sensor. (*Lid appearance may vary by version.)

Step 01

Install pH-compatible lid

A. Remove the station lid. Clean the cup if necessary.

‍B. Install the new pH-compatible lid and siphon. Reinstall the drip line if your setup uses one.

Step 02

Place the pH Sensor

Insert the pH sensor until it reaches the bottom of the cup. The sensor tip must remain partially submerged at all times to function correctly.

‍Ensure the sensor tip is partially submerged in irrigation water within 24 hours of installation. (Note: Drain stations may take longer to fill.)

Step 03

Scan QR + assign

Hand holding a smartphone using the AROYA mobile app to assign the scanned pH sensor to a room, zone, or specific Drip/Drain station.

Open the QR code scanner and assign the pH Sensor to a specific zone. If a Drip & Drain station is already present in that zone, the app will select it automatically; you simply need to designate the sensor for Drip or Drain. If no station is selected, the pH sensor will operate as a standalone device.

STORAGE

How to store the pH sensor

Storage solution is available online. We recommend storing the pH sensor in storage solution. Always keep it on hand. It is available at store.addium.io.
