IMPLEMENTATION MODBUS - BASED PH MONITORING USING
PLC AND HMI IN TILAPIA FISH
AQUAPONICS TANK
ABSTRACT
1.0 INTRODUCTION
800
while others cannot sustain themselves outside of their normal pH
range...............................
In mossy areas, for instance, some fish can survive owing to low
oxygen levels. In this case, water contamination may have a
devastating impact on the environment, putting the health of its
inhabitants at risk. Consequently, water quality monitoring is extremely
valuable because it provides information about water condition and
intended application (Zohari, 2019). The main objective of the research
is to develop a system that will monitor certain pH in the outdoor
Aquaponics system. Modbus is used for communicating from analog
pH prob to Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and Human Machine
Interface (HMI) for the output monitoring system.

and is very reliable in industrial automation, chemical processes, and
other industrial processes, is the control unit that is often used (Chattal
et al, 2019). Finally, the necessary hardware and software will be
outlined.
A. Block Diagram
The main parts of the proposed monitoring system are the PLC
connected using Modbus to 2 sensors (pH and Temperature)
to monitor the water quality and display the monitored
parameter on the HMI screen with notification alarm and tower
lamp. In this block diagram, the pH sensor measures the pH of
the water and provides an analog signal to the analog input
module named Modbus to the PLC. The PLC processes the
analog signal using a control program, which converts the
signal into a pH value. The pH value is then displayed on an
HMI device connected to the PLC., along with alarms and
tower lamp. Show the monitoring properties of the water
condition as shown in figure 1.

C. Modbus RTU
Modicon developed the Modbus protocol in 1979 stated in
Modbus Organization (2023) website. Modbus is a
fundamental communication protocol used mostly in industrial
settings. It is universal, accessible, and simple to use. New
industrial products like PLCs, PACs, I/O devices, and
instruments may have an Ethernet, serial, or even wireless
interface, but Modbus remains the preferred protocol. Modbus
protocol works on all types of communication medium,
including twisted pair wires, wireless, fiber optics, Ethernet,
etc., which is its primary advantage (Sadik et al., 2015). Figure
3 shows the wiring diagram communication between COM2
and RS485 Modbus.

D. Evaluation data collection
The monitoring system involves two simultaneous data
transmission. Before the deployment of the system, data is
collected manually using a pH probe and keep recorded
manually every 4 hours. Using monitoring system were
programmed to measure and send data to HMI via PLC every
second. HMI will record the data value.
E. Calibration of Sensor
To ensure the reading of the sensor is accurate, they are using
3-point references. Buffer Solution are pH 4, pH 7 and pH 9.2.
Dissolve buffer table of pH 4 in 100ml of distilled water to get
pH 4 buffer solution stated in Chegg.com expert answer
database. Comparing a standard pH meter to an analog probe,
the output reading is obtained by dipping the electrode into the
sample.

4.0 CONCLUSION
807
aquaponic practitioners can quickly detect and resolve these issues,
ensuring a healthy and growing ecosystem agreed by Sace et al.
(2013). pH water sensors provide valuable data for the purposes of
analysis and trend monitoring. By recording pH readings real
time aquaponics practitioners can identify patterns and trends in pH
fluctuations. This information can be used to optimize system
management and make informed decisions about system adjustments,
nutrient supplementation, and system health in general.
