Overview
The industry’s first water level data logger designed for convenient wireless setup and download via Bluetooth technology. Dramatically simplifies and lowers the cost of field data collection by providing wireless access to high-accuracy water level and temperature data right from a mobile phone, tablet, or Windows computer running our free HOBOconnect app. Consists of a top-end unit and a water level sensor which are sold as a set. A direct-read cable is required to connect them. Cables can be ordered in lengths from 0.2 to 500m for deployment in a wide range of wells. Add the cable from Compatible Items below or visit the Direct Read Cable product page.

Notices
*
Water Level Accuracy: With accurate reference water level measurement, known water density, and a stable temperature environment. System Water Level Accuracy equals the sum of the Barometric Water Level Accuracy plus the selected sensor end Water Level Accuracy.
**
Raw Pressure Accuracy: Absolute pressure sensor accuracy includes all sensor drift, temperature, and hysteresis-induced errors.
***
Changes in Temperature: Allow 20 minutes in water to achieve full temperature compensation of the pressure sensor. There can be up to 0.5% of additional error due to rapid temperature changes. Measurement accuracy also depends on temperature response time.
