Overview
The RX3000 Water Level Sensor Module (RXMOD-W1) offers users the ability to monitor water level, pressure, and temperature, as well as barometric pressure, with the HOBO RX3000 Remote Monitoring Station. It is configured through HOBOlink, Onset’s cloud-based software. For water level applications, a HOBO RX3000 station, water level sensor cable (CABLE-RWLMOD-XXX), and water level sensor (MX2001-0X-S or MX2001-0X-Ti-S) are required.

* Water Level Accuracy: With accurate reference water level measurement, known water density, and a stable temperature environment.
** 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.
