The YSI 600XL V2 and YSI 600XLM V2 compact sondes measure multiple parameters simultaneously, including:

• Temperature
• Conductivity
• Salinity
• Specific Conductance
• Resistivity
• TDS
• Depth or Shallow Vented Level
• pH
• ORP

Both sondes have one optical port, allowing for measurement of an additional parameter with one of the following optical sensors:

• ROX™ Optical Dissolved Oxygen
• Turbidity
• Chlorophyll
• Blue-Green Algae (freshwater or marine)
• Rhodamine

Each optical sensor has an integrated anti-fouling wiper which prolongs deployment times (thus reducing operating costs) and improves the quality of data.

Economical Logging and Spot Sampling System

The YSI 600XLM V2 is an economical logging system for long-term, in situ monitoring, profiling, and spot sampling. It will log all parameters at programmable intervals and store 150,000 readings. At one-hour intervals, the instrument will log data for about 75 days utilizing its own power source. The 600XL V2 can also be used in the same manner with user-supplied external power.

• Either sonde fits down 2" wells (1.65"    OD)
• Optical sensor port provides a multipurpose platform
• Field-replaceable sensors for quicker maintenance
• Easily connects to data collection platforms
• Anti-fouling wipers on optical sensors extend deployment times
• Compatible with YSI 650 Multiparameter Display System
• Flow cell available for pump-through applications
• Horizontal measurements in very shallow waters

Connect with Data Collection Platforms

Either sonde can easily connect to the YSI 650 handheld logger/display, YSI 6200 DAS (Data Acquisition System), web-enabled YSI EcoNet® or your own data collection platform, via SDI-12, for remote and real-time monitoring applications.
