HOBO® U22 Water Temp Pro v2
(Part # U22-001)
The HOBO Water Temp Pro v2 logger is designed with a durable, streamlined, UV-stable case for extended deployments measuring temperature in fresh or salt water. The small size of the logger allows it to be easily mounted and/or hidden in the field. It is waterproof up to 120 m (400 feet) and rugged enough to withstand years of use, even in stream conditions. It has enough memory to record over 42,000 12-bit temperature measurements. The logger uses an optical USB communications interface (USB-Optic Base Station, Part # BASE-U-4, with COUPLER2-C) for launching and reading out the logger. The optical interface allows the logger to be offloaded Thank you for purchasing a HOBO data logger. With without compromising the integrity of the seals. The USB proper care, it will give you years of accurate and reliable compatibility allows for easy setup and fast downloads. HOBOware® software is also required for logger operation.

The logger can record two types of data: samples and events. Samples are the sensor measurements recorded at each logging interval (for example, temperature every minute). WATER TEMP PRO V2
Events are independent occurrences triggered by a logger activity, such as Bad Battery or Host Connected. Events help you determine what was happening while the logger was The logger stores 64K of data, and can record over 42,000 12-bit temperature measurements. 5.
