pH Sensor for Reservoir

Track Reservoir pH With a BNC-Terminated Probe

Nutrient availability shifts sharply outside a narrow pH band, so hydroponic growers watch that number more closely than almost any other reservoir metric. The TrolMaster PPH-1 pH sensor gives an Aqua-X system a dedicated probe for that reading, wired into the AMP-2 Sensor Board through a BNC connector.

Its 6-meter cable reaches well past the controller itself, so the probe can sit directly in a hydroponic reservoir, an aquarium, or a lab vessel, wherever that's most convenient.

Key Features & Benefits

• Dedicated pH Probe — focuses on one reading rather than combining pH with EC or temperature.
• BNC Connector — wires into the AMP-2 Sensor Board on an Aqua-X controller.
• 6-Meter Reach — positions the probe well away from the controller itself.
• Multi-Setting Design — suits hydroponic reservoirs, aquariums, and lab vessels alike.
• Wide Operating Range — handles 32 to 122°F and humidity up to 90%.

Who Should Use the PPH-1 pH Sensor

Aqua-X users who want pH tracked as its own dedicated reading, rather than folded into a combined probe, are the intended users of the PPH-1. Reservoir dipping suits this sensor best; a plumbing-integrated installation calls for the heavier-duty PPH-2 or PPH-3 instead.

About TrolMaster

TrolMaster separates pH sensing into its own PPH product line rather than bundling it exclusively with EC probes, giving Aqua-X users at every scale a dedicated reading option. The PPH-1, developed at the company's Sacramento, California offices, is the reservoir-dip entry point into that lineup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the PPH-1 measure anything besides pH?

No, it is a dedicated single-purpose pH probe. Growers who want combined EC and temperature readings should look at the separate PCT sensor line instead.

How is the PPH-1 wired to my controller?

Through a BNC connector into the AMP-2 Sensor Board on an Aqua-X system. The board needs to already be installed for the sensor to report readings.

How far can I position the probe from the controller?

Up to 6 meters, the full length of its cable. That's enough reach for most reservoir placements away from the controller itself.

Where can this sensor be used?

In a hydroponic reservoir, an aquarium, or a lab setting. Its general-purpose probe design isn't limited to cultivation use.

What conditions is the PPH-1 rated for?

32 to 122°F with working humidity up to 90%. Those ratings cover typical indoor grow-room and greenhouse conditions.
