1. Introduction 

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PURCHASE

  

 

The TruBlue line of data loggers offers accuracy, versatility and extensive features. You’ve

 made a commitment to 

quality. In return, we promise a high level of service and support to help you get the most from your investment in leading-edge 
environmental monitoring instrumentation. 

ABOUT TRUBLUE DATA LOGGERS

  

 

With models available to measure Liquid Level; Temperature; Conductivity; and Barometric Pressure the TruBlue 

data logger family is our next generation of Environmental Resource sensors 

 the TruBlue data logger family combines 

precision, performance, and rugged reliability like no other water level measurement instrument available today. Designed to 
deliver time and time again in even the harshest conditions, TruBlue data loggers are battery powered and features welded 
316 stainless steel or titanium construction in a fully sealed design. Since these units do not require onsite power or a 

programmable logic controller (PLC), a terminal box isn’t necessary.
