Water quality
Catch water-quality problems before they reach the crop or the stock
Salinity, pH, turbidity and dissolved oxygen, logged continuously from your dam, bore or tank and shown beside your weather and soil data.
What it logs
- Salinity (EC)
- pH and turbidity
- Dissolved oxygen and temperature
What it measures
Five readings, five reasons
| Electrical conductivity (salinity) | Salt stresses crops and limits what stock can safely drink |
|---|---|
| pH | Affects how well some chemicals work, and drives scaling and corrosion in pipes |
| Turbidity | Cloudy water blocks filters and drip emitters, especially after rain |
| Dissolved oxygen | Matters for aquaculture and for water held in dams |
| Water temperature | Context for the other readings |
Algae (chlorophyll) monitoring for dams on request.
What you can decide
Act on the water, not on a guess
- Switch from a bore to a dam when conductivity climbs, or the other way round.
- Flush filters when turbidity spikes, before flow drops.
- Compare sources side by side and see which is trending the wrong way.
- Get an alert when a reading leaves the range you set.
Looking after it
Maintenance and where it is used
Maintenance: water probes collect fouling and drift, so they need periodic cleaning and calibration. Plan on cleaning and calibration about twice a year, and more often in dirty water. We can service the sensors for you.
Used for irrigation water and stock water on farms and vineyards, and dam or storage water on mine and construction sites.
Pairs with: Tank and dam level for how much, water quality for how good.
