Abstract

This study uses a prototype design model consisting of several stages, namely needs analysis, design, coding, and testing. The results of the TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) sensor performance test indicate its ability to detect total dissolved solids (TDS) in saltwater solutions by measuring the salt content in the solution by detecting the amount of salt content in the solution, as many as 6 tests were carried out using salt with different amounts in grams into 100 ml of pure water. Based on the analysis of 3 tests on filtered water, the resulting water is physically odorless, colorless, tasteless, and the TDS value is at 151 - 153 ppm, and chemically has a pH value of 7.11 - 7.16. Based on the results of the tests carried out, it can be concluded that the water from filtration using the RO method is suitable and safe for consumption because it has met both physical parameters, such as color, odor, taste, and TDS levels, as well as chemical parameters, namely the pH level has complied with the applicable drinking water health requirements according to the Regulation of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia Number 492, 2010
