WATERPROOF TESTERS for aquaria and aquaculture
These
waterproof (IP67) and pocket size testers (153 mm long, 24 mm diameter, weight just 45 g)
with digital display are ideal for aquaria or aquaculture and any other field
applications. There are different models with replaceable electrode and automatic
temperature compensation available that read conductivity or salinity (0-1999 µS EC or
0,0-199,9 ppm TDS), pH-value and temperature (0.00-14.00 pH and 0.0-50.0 ºC) or redox
potential (± 1000 mV ORP) at an affordable price. The tester are factory calibrated, but
can be manually calibrated and measurements are highly accurate (0.1 or 2 % or mV) with
high resolution (1,00 to 0,01). The modular design allows easy electrode and battery
replacement. A rugged splash-proof and floating casing prevents water infiltration. All
the testers work with common batteries (3 x 1.5 V) and have a long live.
TEST BOX for the water analysis

DIGITAL PHOTOMETER for various water parameters
For the necessary manual analysis, this
microprocessor photolyser meter with professional concept and high precision is the right
coice. Just select the required program on the foil pushbuttons. The display shows
the parameter and dimesions exactly (to 2 digits behind the got). An acustic sign informs
when the reaction time is finished. The results are displayed on the meter and can be
stored for later processing. The meter is equipped with a RS-485 adaptor. Via an
additionaly integrated RS-232 adaptor the meter can be connected to a printer or PC (cable
as accessoire available). It is possible to archive over 500 stored data sets with date
and time for up to 16 tanks. The meter has a 0-point-memory, which needs no new
calibration. This photolyser works with 4 usual 1,5 V batteries, with integrated capacity
monitoring on the meter. Alternativly accumulators or an connector for external power
supply is available (as accessoire).

SATUROMETER to identifie gas super-satturation in water
This new handheld saturometer (Protection class IP65, with
electric backlight display identifies gas super-saturation in water reliably to 400 hPa
resp. mbar pressure difference, with an accuracy of 1 hPa. It works with a usual 6 x 1.5
Lithiumcells, with integrated capacity monitoring on the meter. The maintainance free
sensor is compleatly sealed (Protection class IP67, Signal outlet 0-5 V). As option also
an oxygen sensor can be connected to the meter.
The gas bubble disease is very often present undetected and leads to significant damage in
the fish stock. If fish are being exposed to oversaturation continuously, they will suffer
from it no matter which gas contributed most to the supersaturation! In experiments it was
proven, that a continuous charge with only low levels of supersaturation has a significant
negative impact on the fish immune system. A fishstock infected with IPN (Infectious
Pancreas Necrosis) produced losses of 10-15 % after 90 days whereas fish from the same
stock epxosed to supersaturation showed a mortality rate of 65 %. The gas bubbles
themselves cause a lot of direct damages like lesions and embolies. Those alone are lethal
in some cases. But in every case they open the door for secondary infections which can not
be repelled by a weakened immune system. Another typical sample is a trout breeder who
reported fin rot and saprolegnia on the fish body. Measures showed a gas pressure of 45
hPa which equaled to 105 % gas saturation. It may not sound high but the pectoral fins
were severely damaged by gas bubble lesions. The fin rot and fungus (Saprolegnia) were
clearly produced by an undetected gas oversaturation.

GRAPHIC MICROPROCESSOR METERS for oxygen, temperature, pressure and ph-value
This "OxyScan" micro dissolved oxygen meters
are specially developed for the use in aquaculture and limnology. Through the very stable
splashproof cover made from ABS plastic and the delivery including plastic transport case
as well as the plastic sensor (14 mm Ø, 150 mm long with 2 m cable and connector)
with a very long sensor life (approx. 2 years standby time, physically) they are perfect
for field work.
The full graphic display makes the result clear and fast visible. The short polarisation
time (approx. 30 sec. max. 5 min.), the low flow current sensitivity (1 % at 5 cm/sec.) as
well as the air-pressure and temperature compensation in the range of 5 - 40 °C makes
working easy. The automatic calibration with the included calibration chamber is an
additional feature.
A free-configurable switching output (24 V DC / 2 A or 230 V AC / 1 A) and exact analogue
output or an extended measurement range (up to 199,9 mg/l) are options for all these
meters. This meters can also be configured as you wish, e.g. storage, specific
control-logic (with switch outputs), customer-specific data format, but it is also
possible to extend this system anytime. As options are also available: stainless steel
sensors 4,7 to 5,4 mm Ø, 80-400 mm long with 1,5 to 5,0 m cable and connector
(other cable lenths on request).

MULTICHANNEL PROCESSERS for control and management
Automated monitoring and control removes the information gap that
exist with manual data collection, lower labour costs and allow to operate the aerators
exactly then when they are needed. One of the biggest advantages of automated monitoring
is that it provides critical data continuously and reduces the chance of human errors.
Continuous monitoring and control maintains the environment ideally suited for optimal
fish growth and production, and reduces the stress in both fish and workers.
The main unit is a small yet powerful microprocessor
controlled system, and is build on a modular basis. It accepts up to 8 analogue inputs
(i.e.: for oxygen and temperature), and has galvanic isolated control and alarm outputs
(4-20 mA). The system performs measurement, alarm and regulation functions ensuring safe
operation, maximum feed utilization and livestock growth. Optionally the system can be
extended to a powerful registration and data logging tool, where a PC can be connected,
from which observation of records and copying or logging of data can take place. It is a
stand alone unit that does not depend on a PC for correct operation and can operate (and
be configured) without a PC. The unit can also be connected to a 24 V battery pack to
ensures that the system remains operating after mains failure.
The robust and easy to use (60 mm large) oxygen probe is a self polarising membrane
covered galvanic cell that generates an electrical signal proportional to the oxygen
pressure it senses, no matter whether it is in water, air or another medium. It is
connected using ordinary 2-core cable, which can have any length (up to 1000 m) and does
not need an external supply because it makes its own electricity. Cleaning the membrane
(with a cloth or tissue) is, apart from an occasional calibration, the only routine
maintenance necessary.
Quality is our motto ... and your profit!
