The cost-effective HOBO MicroRX station is ideal for flood alert system, storm water monitoring, irrigation, hydrological research, and environmental applications. Pre-programmed water flow formulas and a stage discharge table result in easy and intuitive configuration. Spend more time focusing on results, and less time on configuration and data access.

Key Features

  • Keep updated with changes in water level as they occur - real-time alerts via text message & email
  • Eliminate complicated manual calculations - pre-programmed water flow and accumulated rainfall formulas trigger immediate notifications of critical water level conditions
  • Powerful web-based access to your data - with HOBOlink cloud-based software: view and manage your water level measurements, configure alarms, create custom dashboards
  • Reduce maintenance visits - non-vented water level sensor, with a choice of four ranges
  • Station-side alarms - for water flow and accumulated rainfall triggered at time of measurement
  • Expandable - add up to five additional sensors to monitor other parameters such as rainfall & soil moisture (comes with integrated barometric pressure sensor)
  • Solar and battery power options:
    • Model RX2104 - Integrated 1.7 W solar panel with rechargeable battery pack (for extra solar power, a 5W or 15W external solar panel can be added to the RX2104)

* 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 sensor Water Level Accuracy.

** Raw 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.

Measurement accuracy also depends on temperature response time.
