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 EM60G 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.

Features
  • Continuously monitor groundwater and surface water level changes
  • Integrated electrical conductivity and temperature measurement
  • 3.4 cm diameter sensor that fits into tight spaces
  • Low cost
  • Durable
  • Easy to use
