One important parameter that needs to be considered in water quality is the acidity level (pH) in the water. This study aims to design and determine real-time and accurate pH sensor based on internet of thing (IoT). This system design uses an ESP32 microcontroller and The PH-4502C pH Meter Module sensor. The ESP32 can be connected to the IoT-based Blynk platform, allowing pH data to be monitored in real time via a smartphone. Testing of the IoT-based pH sensor was conducted to evaluate the system's real-time operation under varying distances. Meanwhile, the pH sensor's accuracy was determined by comparing its output with a digital pH meter using buffer solutions at different pH levels. The test results show that the time value required in each range is always constant, namely 1 s. This proves that IoT-based monitoring does not affect the range. Meanwhile, measurement of pH level was the average error value is 3.49%, and the sensor accuracy is 96.51%. These results indicate a low error rate, resulting in high accuracy. The sensor error value of 3.49% is lower than the specified error tolerance limit of <5%. This proves that the pH sensor, with an accuracy of 96.51%, is suitable and reliable for measuring pH in solutions.
