The latest release of ModularSensors 0.27.0 has a new simple electrical conductivity sensors ~ AnalogElecConductivity.h/.cpp
Thanks to Sara for accepting it as a MS sensor and formatting it to the latest documentation style. See the amazing Doxygen generated https://envirodiy.github.io/ModularSensors/group__sensor__analog__cond.html
Sara has also added to example/menu_a_la_carte.ino

Its a “simple sensor” ~ meaning low cost low resolution using the Mayfly mega1284’s ADC 10bit.
I should emphasize as released, all calibration and determination of fitness for purpose. safety analysis for specific usage, is on the user.
Its based on a standalone Mayfly sensor I built for monitoring “Stream Disconnect”.
The purpose is to measure when a stream’s level hydrograph is dropping, and to be able to determine approximately when the stream’s flows “disconnect”. In recent studies for streams in the dry Mediterranean Western USA this is a significant event for the streams biology.
I hope to do a separate discussion on the full unit I built, including a separate interface board but that will have to be for later. The wip is at https://github.com/neilh10/ModularSensors/wiki/Stream-Disconnect-EC-Monitor
