Overview

The YSI Pro20 is a rugged handheld dissolved oxygen and temperature meter with a built-in barometer. It takes user-replaceable galvanic or polarographic DO sensors, or a self-stirring BOD probe for the lab, on detachable cables from 1 to 100 m. One Touch Cal calibrates DO in seconds.

  • Choose galvanic or polarographic DO sensors for the field, or a self-stirring BOD probe for the laboratory
  • One Touch Cal for DO calibration in about 3 seconds
  • Automatic barometric pressure compensation (internal barometer)
  • Detachable cables in 1, 4, 10, 20, 30 and 100 m lengths with military-spec connectors
  • 95% response in 8 seconds with the standard membrane
  • 50 data set memory; backlit graphic display and keypad
  • IP-67 waterproof rubber over-molded case, floats, 1 m drop tested
  • EPA approved for wastewater compliance reporting of BOD, CBOD and DO

Instrument only: choose a cable and a galvanic or polarographic DO sensor separately. Request a quote for pricing and availability.
