HOBO MX802 Water Data Logger (Conductivity/salinity, Depth, Temperature (CT/CTD), & Dissolved Oxygen)
- Low stock - 2 items left
Highly versatile, modular multiparameter loggers that integrate sensors (purchased separately) for measuring water conductivity/salinity, depth, temperature (CTD/CT), and dissolved oxygen (coming soon).
Communications
Access your data directly from your mobile phone, tablet or Windows computer when within 100 foot (30 m) line-of-sight range of the logger, with the free HOBOconnect app.
To enable cloud data storage and analysis, add an MX Data Plan (select from the options above).
To enable near real-time remote monitoring and alerts via email or text message, add an MX Data Plan and an MX Gateway (select from the options above). Note: the MX Gateway must be indoors.

Logger: PVC housing with polyester film label, PET sensor connector end cap and mounting handle with EPDM and Buna-N O-rings, passivated 316 stainless steel hardware rated for use in saltwater; MX802 also has ePTFE ventCollar: HDPE, titanium screwsNote: logger should be mounted so that no metal parts of the logger are in contact with other metals
- Depth/Environmental Rating
-
MX801: IP68; waterproof to 100m (with sensor(s) attached)MX802: IP67, NEMA 6; Weatherproof (with cable or Termination Plug attached); this model is not waterproof
* 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.
***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 CTD sensor Water Level Accuracy.

Overview
HOBO MX800 Series multiparameter wireless data loggers work with interchangeable sensors to provide a highly configurable solution for monitoring water conductivity/salinity, temperature, depth, and dissolved oxygen (coming soon). Available in both an easy-to-deploy, fully submersible model (MX801) and a direct read model (MX802) for convenient data offload that doesn’t require having to remove sensors from the water.
Features
- Compatible with interchangeable Conductivity, CTD (conductivity/temperature/depth), and DO sensors (sold separately) - swap out sensors for different applications
- Bluetooth, for easy logger configuration and data offload
- Easy to deploy, fully submersible (MX801)
- Direct read for convenient data offload (MX802)
- Logger diameter is less than 2 inches
- Faster data offload via Bluetooth 5.0
- Water detect feature indicates when logger was out of the water (MX801)
- Barometric pressure sensor included (MX802)
- Connect two sensors to one logger to get measurements like salinity adjusted DO directly, with no need for post-processing
- Guided calibration ensures accurate data
- User-replaceable batteries.
Requires the free HOBOconnect mobile app (available from iTunes and Google Play).
