Abstract :
The use of generator sets in telecommunications companies is crucial as a backup power supply. However, monthly generator tanks are susceptible to water contamination, which can cause damage to the generator engines. To address this issue, this research aims to develop a pH sensor-based alarm prototype to detect the presence of water in monthly generator tanks. The research method involves the use of a pH 4502C sensor connected to an Arduino Uno and a buzzer as a warning alarm. The pH sensor was chosen for its ability to detect pH changes indicating water contamination. Tests were conducted on mineral water, well water, and rainwater to evaluate the sensor's performance. The test results showed that the pH 4502C sensor could accurately detect pH changes in all three types of water, demonstrating its reliability in identifying water contamination in generator fuel tanks. Implementing this system is expected to enhance the reliability and lifespan of generator engines by reducing the risk of damage due to water contamination. In conclusion, this research provides an effective solution for detecting and addressing water contamination issues and offers a reference for the future development of pH sensor technology and IoT-based monitoring systems. Thus, this system can help monitor and maintain the fuel quality in generator tanks, thereby improving the lifespan and reliability of generator engines.
