Sensors

Sensors include optical RDO (Rugged Dissolved Oxygen), pH/ORP, conductivity, pressure, and temperature.

1

Pressure sensor 76 m (250 ft)

2

pH/ORP sensor

3

Conductivity sensor

4

Temperature sensor

5

RDO Sensor

Cable

The cable includes a twist-lock connection to the instrument and a stripped-and-tinned termination that must be wired to a
controller. Cable length is customizable. Maximum length is 1,219 m (4,000 ft) for Modbus output, and 60.9 m (200 ft) for SDI-
12 output.

Win-Situ 5 Software

The Win-Situ 5 Software is used to calibrate the sensors and to configure the instrument settings to communicate with a
process controller or data logger. See the Communication Settings and Calibration section for more details.
