[0024] Implementation method 3: such as Figure 3 As shown, the explosion-proof housing 1 of this explosion-proof online pH meter has a partition 13 inside, with holes in the partition 13 and a sealing sleeve 14 installed. The signal lines of the pH measurement module 21 and the temperature measurement module 22 are routed through the sealing sleeve 14 to connect the pH sensor connector 11 and the temperature sensor connector 12.

It communicates with the host computer via the HART modulation chip AD5700. The remaining structure and components are as described in Embodiment 1 and will not be repeated.
[0026] During operation: The pH measurement module and temperature measurement module are connected to external pH and temperature sensors to collect signals. After signal conditioning and amplification by the measurement modules, the signals are input to the STM32L431 for signal processing. After analog-to-digital conversion, the signals are sent to the display module for display on the LCD screen and to the integrated HART module. The data is then transmitted to the host computer via the HART modulation chip AD5700 for online centralized data and status monitoring. At the same time, after voltage regulation, the signal is sent to the output module for voltage-to-current conversion to output a 4-20mA weak current signal for IoT connection with other devices.
