Temperature Profiling

Temperature Profiling

Monitoring the yearly evolution of temperature stratification is a critical component in lake management and research. NexSens data buoys and thermistor strings offer an ideal solution for multi-point temperature profiling.

Temperature String

T-Node temperature sensors can be connected in-series and suspended vertically from a data buoy to create a highly accurate, multi-point temperature string.

Inland Lakes Buoy

The MB-300 data buoy is designed for long-term temperature profiling applications. Three five-watt, solar-charged battery packs provide continuous power, extending deployments and minimizing site visits.

Small Open-Water Buoy

The MB-100 data buoy provides a less conspicuous floating platform with alkaline battery power. The platform is ideal for short-term or portable temperature profiling applications.

Data Collection

The NexSens SDL submersible data logger includes five sensor ports to accommodate connections to temperature strings and various other water quality sensors.

Wireless Communication

Radio-to-shore, cellular, or Iridium satellite telemetry options deliver real-time data to your computer or mobile device. Communications are integrated into the ruggedized housing of the submersible data logger.

T-Node Sensor Connections

The T-Node temperature sensors are connectorized and plug directly into sealed underwater cables, which separate the sensors at metric spacing intervals. Custom cable lengths are available.

System Expansion

Fluorometers, multi-parameter sondes, weather sensors, depth sonar, and many other sensors are easily added to the system.

Software and Data Management

Using iChart Live software and the optional WQData Live Web datacenter, project members can quickly access real-time temperature profiling data and make informed operational decisions as needed.

Startup Support

Application engineers are available for training and technical support, both by phone and in person. Our extensive field experience helps ensure seamless implementation of the monitoring project.
