SISTEM MONITORING GAS OKSIGEN DAN KARBONDIOKSIDA PADA RUANG PENYIMPANAN SISTEM UDARA TERKONTROL

Abstract: One of way in pickling process of main food material of vegetable and fruits is storage. In principle  metabolism  storage,  like  respiration,  transpiration,  infection  plant  diseases  and lengthen  more  durable.  Purpose  of  storage  of  fruit  and  vegetable  to  lengthen  product usefulness,  controls  request  of  market  and  increases  advantage.  At  research  before  all,  the system controlled atmosphere storage still be done in manual either from within observation of composition and operation of gas in it. Therefore, need to be done modification of equipment with addition of monitoring system and gas control automatically, so that change of gas volume in storage space of CAS can be detected. Equipment applied in this research is microcontroller AT89S51  and  its  arrangement  system  by  using  computer.  With  existence  of  communications between  microcontroller  system  with  personal  computer  through  IC  RS  232.  At  this  research happened change of oxygen gas concentration from 21% to 2% and increase of percentage of carbondioxide from 0.03% to 2.5% for temperature 26oC. this matter is according to boundariset wanted for condition of apple atmosphere Rome Beauty.
Keywords: Oxygen, carbondioxide, CAS, MKAT89S51, Personal Computer (PC)
