Monitoring Water Quality
In this lab, students use a water quality sensor, turbidity sensor, and weather/anemometer sensor to monitor the pH, dissolved oxygen content, conductivity, and turbidity of a natural body of water. Students will use their data to determine how water quality changes in response to changes in environmental factors.

Featured Equipment
Wireless Optical Dissolved Oxygen Sensor
This sensor is perfect for the live or long-term monitoring of dissolved oxygen concentration, saturation, atmospheric pressure, and water temperature in both the lab and field.
Wireless Colorimeter & Turbidity Sensor
This sensor can function as a turbidimeter or colorimeter and is capable of measuring absorbance and transmittance at six different wavelengths.
Wireless Conductivity Sensor
This waterproof sensor connects via Bluetooth® to measure both conductivity (ionic content in solution) and total dissolved solids.
Wireless Weather Sensor with GPS
This sensor is packed with 19 different measurements, including GPS, that can be monitored live or collected over the long term.
Wireless pH Sensor
Here’s the best tool for measuring pH since litmus paper. The Wireless pH Sensor connects via Bluetooth® to monitor the pH of solutions.
Advanced Water Quality Sensor
This is a multipurpose sensor that incorporates probes for pH, conductivity, temperature, and optical dissolved oxygen.
Many lab activities can be conducted with our Wireless, PASPORT, or even ScienceWorkshop sensors and equipment. For assistance with substituting compatible instruments, contact PASCO Technical Support. We're here to help.
