Water Quality Monitoring

Build a monitoring package around the parameters you need, deployment length, telemetry, service access, and data workflow. LakeTech should review configured sonde and remote-monitoring orders before purchase.

LakeTech field guide

Choose the measurement path before the instrument

Start with the decisions the data must support, then match parameters, deployment length, telemetry, and maintenance.

Confirm first: A sensor list is not a complete deployment. Confirm cables, communications, power, telemetry, calibration, and service access before ordering.

Path and products What it changes Use it when Choose Confirm first
Conductivity and level logging Measure conductivity and temperature, with level and pressure added on the Aqua TROLL 200. You need focused logging rather than a broad sonde payload. Choose Aqua TROLL 100 for conductivity and temperature, or Aqua TROLL 200 when level and pressure are also required. Confirm deployment depth, pressure range, cable, readout, logging, and retrieval plan.
Dissolved oxygen Measure dissolved oxygen and temperature, with conductivity available in the RDO Trio path. Fish stress, aeration performance, or process oxygen is the primary question. Compare RDO Blue, RDO PRO-X, and RDO Trio by deployment and required parameters. Confirm measurement range, cable, readout, calibration, process connection, and maintenance plan.
Fixed multiparameter Measure a fixed set of conductivity-related parameters, RDO, ORP, pH, temperature, level, and pressure. The required parameter set matches the Aqua TROLL 400 configuration. Choose the probe-only or cable bundle path that fits the deployment. Confirm every required parameter, cable length, readout, telemetry, and maintenance access.
Configurable multiparameter Build a sensor payload around the program's required parameters. You need four or six sensor ports, a wiper, or a more configurable sonde. Compare Aqua TROLL 500 and 600 with the six-port 700 and 800 paths. Confirm sensor payload, wiper, cables, communications, power, logging, and service cadence.
Remote data Connect a compatible field instrument to cellular telemetry and HydroVu. The site needs remote reporting or alerts instead of manual-only retrieval. Build the VuLink and HydroVu workflow around the instrument and response plan. Confirm antenna, coverage, plan, reporting interval, mounting, and instrument power.
Complete lake oxygen systems Compare dissolved oxygen and temperature at two or three representative depths. The management question depends on stratification and vertical oxygen conditions. Choose Top/Bottom or Top/Middle/Bottom after defining representative depths. Confirm basin geometry, deployment depths, telemetry coverage, access, and who responds to the data.
Maintenance support Keep optical DO caps and field-service supplies organized. You already have compatible instruments and need supporting maintenance equipment. Match the cap kit or maintenance pack to the installed equipment. Verify exact compatibility, service interval, consumables, and calibration workflow.
