Abstract
Sedimentation measurement has been quite difficult to do as it requires more time for and more activity in water management, thus affects the quality and quantity of obtained data. The purpose of this study was to create a set of devices capable of automatically measuring sediment and flow characteristics. The phases of this research were the determination and assembly of all the device components, creation of a program for converting data into numbers, sampling, and device testing. The results of the device testing, which were obtained from calibration and conversion tests, indicated that the devices had been well tested. The calibration and conversion curves showed the R value was close to 1. As for the unit conversion equation of NTU and ppm, it was y = 11.71x – 1037.2. In conclusion, with the successful creation of this automatic measuring devices, the turbidity and flow velocity-based sedimentation measurement is expected to be the solution to issues demanding efficient and practical data retrieval.
