Overview

A low-cost, research-grade data logger for continuous monitoring of water level and temperature at depths of up to 13, 30, or 100 feet in a wide range of underwater environments. This logger features 0.1% measurement accuracy, a polypropylene housing for use in both freshwater and saltwater, and a non-vented design for convenient and hassle-free deployment.

Features

Self-contained, non-vented design enables easy deployment
Ideal for use in both freshwater and saltwater environments, including wells, streams, lakes, wetlands, and tidal areas
Depths up to 13, 30, or 100 feet depending on model
Durable ceramic pressure sensor withstands freezing
HOBOware Pro software provides easy conversion to accurate water level reading, fully compensated for barometric pressure, temperature, and water density

Note: A calibration certificate is not offered for this logger. If you require a NIST-traceable calibration certificate, please see the U20-001-01 (freshwater) or U20-001-01-Ti (saltwater).
