Abstract

This study evaluates water quality at refillable drinking water depots in Bitung City, Indonesia, focusing on physical, chemical, and biological parameters compared against Indonesian Ministry of Health standards. The prototype method was employed, using Unified Modeling Language (UML) for system design and architecture modeling. Water samples were tested directly for pH, TDS (Total Dissolved Solids), and temperature. Results indicate that 5 out of 6 depots met health standards with contaminant levels below permissible limits. The study underscores the need for enhanced supervision and quality control at these depots to ensure safe water for public consumption. It proposes implementing microcontroller and sensor-based monitoring systems for real-time water quality monitoring to improve accuracy and efficiency. This technology aims to safeguard public health by ensuring consistent adherence to safety standards. In conclusion, the research provides crucial insights into Bitung City's refillable drinking water depot quality and advocates for technological advancements to ensure safe drinking water.
