Onset Announces Conductivity Data Logger
BOURNE, Mass. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Onset (http://www.onsetcomp.com),
the world's leading supplier of data loggers, today announced the HOBO
Conductivity Logger, a high-accuracy, easy-to-maintain data logger that
substantially reduces the cost of measuring conductance and temperature
in streams, lakes, and other freshwater sources.
Ideal for monitoring aquifers for saltwater intrusion and road and
agricultural runoff, the HOBO
Conductivity Logger provides a number of features that greatly
simplify maintenance and minimize drift-related measurement errors. For
example, it was designed with a non-contact sensor that makes it less
susceptible to drift than loggers that utilize contact, electrode-based
sensors. The logger also provides open access to the sensor for easy
cleaning, and software-based drift compensation using calibration points
from the start and end of each deployment.
Powerful, intuitive software
Onset's HOBOware Pro software makes it easy to graph and
analyze conductivity data, and offers a number of features that simplify
conductivity monitoring projects. It provides a choice of methods for
easy, accurate conversion of conductivity data to specific conductance
for various water types. The software also makes it easy to combine data
sets from multiple loggers, and offers one-click data export to
Microsoft Excel and other programs.
Convenient data offload
The HOBO Conductivity Logger offloads data to a PC via a convenient
optical USB interface, which provides high-speed, reliable data offload
in wet environments. The optical design eliminates problems associated
with failure-prone mechanical connectors. The logger is also compatible
with Onset's HOBO Waterproof Shuttle, which provides easy and reliable
data retrieval and transport.
Pricing and availability
The HOBO Conductivity Logger is available immediately from Onset, and is
priced at $699. Software and accessories are priced separately. Visit http://www.onsetcomp.com
