The case of too many sensors
The problem with most water level, temperature and depth sensors
is that their cost is prohibitively high. Not only that, but the
measurement often requires you to purchase an extra sensor to make
a barometric pressure reading to correct for atmospheric pressure.
You need a low-cost instrument that's equipped with every sensor
necessary for things like tracking changes in solute movement,
measuring groundwater recharge and studying surface water
hydrology. You need the HYDROS 21.
Just the right mix of measurements
A compact 3.4 cm diameter sensor that fits into tight spaces,
the HYDROS 21 is a low-cost, durable, and easy-to-use tool for
monitoring EC, temperature, and depth in both groundwater and
surface water. More importantly, it's an all-in-one instrument.
When used with our ZL6 Data-logger, you won't
require an additional sensor for determining-and correcting
for-barometric pressure. With a range of 0 to 120 dS/m and a
measuring depth of 10 m, the sensor makes accurate EC measurements
for a broad range of applications.
Level 1 simplicity (on a scale of 1-10)
One of the qualities that makes the HYDROS 21 so easy to use is
its fast plug-and-play compatibility with the ZL6
Data-logger (also compatible with Campbell Scientific data
loggers). Plus, with the ZL6 Data-logger, you can
monitor and remotely access data wirelessly from any
internet-connected computer in near-real time.
Same measurement specs for less
Trying to measure water level, temperature, and EC typically
requires an expensive sensor (especially one that measures EC).
Since much of the HYDROS 21's complex circuitry is in the data
logger, the cost of each individual sensor is lower. So instead of
having to rely on a single point measurement, you can now take
readings in several different locations without exceeding your
budget.
A high-level water sensor in every sense
While engineering the HYDROS 21, we wanted to design a water
level sensor that was not only highly accurate but also provided a
high degree of value. Because of its low-complexity,
low-maintenance and low-cost design, you can be assured you're
getting an instrument that will save you time, hassle and
money.
