Which sensor detects salt?

A salt sensor typically detects ions or molecules associated with salt. It can use various techniques such as ion-selective electrodes or optical sensors to detect the presence of salt in a substance.

A sensor designed specifically to measure the concentration of salt in water is known as a salinity sensor. It quantifies the amount of salt dissolved in water and provides readings in units such as parts per million (PPM) or parts per thousand (PPT).

A salinity sensor is mainly used to determine the salt concentration in water, which is crucial for various applications such as environmental monitoring, aquaculture and industrial processes. It helps assess water quality and ensure suitable conditions for marine life or specific industrial processes.

A conductivity sensor for salinity measures the electrical conductivity of a solution, which is directly related to the concentration of dissolved salts. By measuring conductivity, the sensor can estimate salinity levels in water without directly measuring salt content.
