HOBO Bluetooth Low Energy pH and Temperature Data Logger

MX2501

The HOBO MX2501 pH and Temperature Data Logger is designed for long-term monitoring of pH in estuaries, lakes, streams, rivers, and oceans. Leveraging Bluetooth Low Energy® (BLE) technology, the MX2501 pH Logger communicates wirelessly with the free HOBOmobile® app on iOS and Android devices making logger setup, calibration, and data offload quick and easy. A guided pH calibration process on the HOBOmobile app makes an otherwise complicated process easier to follow. This affordable and compact logger dramatically cuts the time and effort needed to collect field data, while also offering higher resolution data.

NOTE: pH electrodes should always be stored in storage solution when not deployed.

Resolution 0.01 pH 0.02 mV
Response Time 1 minute typical to 90% at constant temperature in stirred water
Sample Ionic Strength ≥ 100 µS/cm
Temperature Sensor
Range -2° to 50°C (28.4° to 122°F)
Accuracy ±0.2°C (±0.36°F)
Resolution 0.024°C at 25°C (0.04°F at 77°F)
Response Time 7 minutes typical to 90% in stirred water
Logger
Operating Range -2° to 50°C (28.4° to 122°F) — non-freezing
Buoyancy Fresh water: 13.6 g (0.48 oz) negative
Salt water: 19.6 g (0.69 oz) negative
Waterproof To 40 m (131.2 ft)
Water Detection Water conductivity level of 100 µS/cm or greater is necessary for reliable detection of water. Deionized water or water below 100 µS/cm may not be detected.
The water conductivity circuit may not reliably detect water that has frozen around the electrodes, i.e. below 0°C (32°F).
Radio Power 1 mW (0 dBm)
Transmission Range Approximately 30.5 m (100 ft) line-of-sight in air
Wireless Data Standard Bluetooth Low Energy (Bluetooth Smart)
Logging Rate 1 second to 18 hours
Logging Modes Fixed interval (normal, statistics) or burst
Memory Modes Wrap when full or stop when full
Start Modes Immediate, push button, date & time, or next interval
Stop Modes When memory is full, push button, date & time, or after a set logging period
Time Accuracy ±1 minute per month 0° to 50°C (32° to 122°F)
Battery Type One AA 1.5 Volt, user-replaceable
Battery Life 1 year typical at 25°C (77°F) with logging interval of 1 minute and Bluetooth Always On selected in software.
2 years typical at 25°C (77°F) with logging interval of 1 minute and Bluetooth Off Water Detect enabled in software.
3 years typical at 25°C (77°F) with logging interval of 1 minute and Bluetooth Always Off selected in software.
Faster logging intervals and statistics sampling intervals, burst logging, remaining connected with the app, excessive downloads, and paging may impact battery life.
pH Electrode Typical Minimum Life 6 months in sample with ionic strength ≥ 100 µS/cm
Memory 152 KB (43,300 measurements, maximum)
Full Memory Download Time Approximately 60 seconds; may take longer the farther the mobile device is from the logger
Dimensions 22.86 x 4.27 cm (9.0 x 1.68 inches)
Weight 268.2 g (9.46 oz)
Wetted Materials Logger: PVC housing and sensor end cap, polycarbonate closure caps and mounting end cap with a TPE switch
pH electrode: plastic-bodied with Pellon® junctions and gel electrolyte, glass pH sensor bulb
Environmental Rating IP68
CE Compliant The CE Marking identifies this product as complying with all relevant directives in the European Union (EU).
