Sensors

RBR makes use of the various sensor technologies in the industry. We integrate the right sensor on to our loggers (sonde, recorder). The table below indicates which sensors RBR uses regularly.   Links to each company's web site are provided so you can examine their sensor specifications and determine exactly which suits your needs.rinkoiii2

Sensors:

  • Sensors(RBR and Third Party)
  • Conductivity
  • Temperature
  • Depth

General:

  • Memory and Power
  • Physical Construction
  • Software
  • Calibration

RBR is also ready to accommodate other sensors. Contact us if you have a particular sensor you would like installed.
