The AQUAlogger® 310TY Deep is a compact instrument that measures turbidity to over 10,000 FTU for deep-water deployments.

The AQUAlogger ® 310TY Deep is a compact, self-contained instrument designed for reliable turbidity measurement in freshwater and marine environments, optimised for deep-water deployments.

It incorporates an optical turbidity sensor with a measurement range from 0 to over 10,000 FTU, suitable for a wide range of monitoring applications. The logger includes a built-in tool for converting turbidity measurements into suspended sediment concentration using in situ samples.

The AQUAlogger ® 310TY Deep is rated for deployments to depths of 6,000 m, with shallower-rated versions also available.
