Application of Forlinx i.MX6ULL Arm Core Board in High Performance Water Quality Detector

[Forlinx]

The pollutants produced by human activities are the main factors causing water pollution. To protect the water environment, we must strengthen the monitoring of sewage discharge, the analysis of surface water, groundwater, industrial wastewater, and other water quality, and ensure the safety of people's water use. Drinking water safety concerns everybody, but many people still do not know its quality.

Does the residual chlorine exceed the standard? What is the pH? These important indicators related to drinking water health need to be accurately detected. A water quality detector is a professional instrument used to analyze the content of water quality components, which can measure BOD, COD, ammonia nitrogen, total phosphorus, total nitrogen, turbidity, pH, and dissolved oxygen in water. It plays an important role and has been widely used in water quality detection and water resources protection.

FETMX6ULL-C arm core board launched by Forlinx Embedded can be effectively used in water quality detectors to help us better protect drinking water. FETMX6ULL-C core board is a processor-based NXP i.MX6ULL is designed with a low-power ARM Cortex-A7 architecture that runs at speeds up to 800MHz. A low main frequency can reduce the heat generated by the CPU and extend the service life of the CPU. Its stable performance has been verified in long-term use in many fields.

FETMX6ULL-C SoM is highly integrated and supports 8x serial ports, 2x network ports, and 2x CAN. The rich interfaces can connect dissolved oxygen sensors (with temperature), pH sensors, conductivity sensors, turbidity sensors, ammonia nitrogen analyzers, total organic carbon analyzers TOC, etc., to facilitate on-site construction and assembly.

Dual-lane Ethernet can achieve dual-network redundancy. The 10M/100M adaptive Ethernet interface provides double insurance for the network. The support of WiFi and 4G also makes operation and maintenance more convenient.

The software system uses Linux 4.1.15 and has an experienced technical support team to solve problems in the user design, allowing customers to quickly enter the product testing phase.
