Water Quality Monitoring in Rivers and Lakes

Monitoring turbidity and temperature

• Measure turbidity to over 10,000FTU – monitor baseline turbidity, small scale variability and events (such as storm events) with one instrument
• Measure temperature and pressure – add temperature and depth as additional parameters to study thermal effects and track water level changes
• Convert to suspended sediment concentration – use the built in SSC Converter to input your in-situ samples and convert your turbidity measurements to sediment concentrations
• Flexible sampling – continuous or burst sampling, variable sample rates to monitor different parameters at different rates, and intermittent sampling for maximum control

Short term monitoring

• Quick start in the field – set up your logger in the office, the quick start with a magnet in the field. Shake the logger to check its status with the ‘shake to show’ feature.
• Wireless upgrade - For regular sampling, add wireless surface communication and a Windows tablet for data download and reprogramming in the field

Long term monitoring

• Long memory and battery life – with a 64MB memory and the ability to install lithium batteries, a battery and memory lie of up to a year can be achieved. For high frequency sampling or longer deployments, memory upgrades and external battery packs are available.
• Combat biofouling – automatic wipers can be added to minimise the risk of biofouling

Real time systems

• Real time capability as standard – cabled and wireless solutions for full real time systems with data access via designated PC or secure website
