Overview

The HOBO‚ MX2001 is the industry's first water level data logger designed for convenient wireless setup and download from mobile devices via Bluetooth Low Energy. The logger dramatically simplifies and lowers the cost of field data collection by providing wireless access to high-accuracy water level and temperature measurements right from a mobile phone or tablet. The MX2001 logger consists of a top-end unit and a water level sensor which are sold as a set, plus a direct read cable to connect them. Cables can be ordered in lengths from 5 to 60m for deployment in a wide range of wells.

*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.

MAINTENANCE
Replacement Parts
  • DESICCANT2 Large Desiccant Pack (25-count) Replacement
  • DESICCANT1 Small Desiccant Pack (25-count) Replacement
  • The MX2001 uses one small and one large desiccant pack. Because the logger works with a separate barometric sensor, it doesn't have a vent tube and frequent desiccant replacements are not required. When installing new batteries, check the desiccant and replace if necessary.
