The HORIBA U-51 (10 m) from the U-50 series enables mobile multi-parameter measurements using a combined sensor probe. Various water parameters can be recorded within a single measurement process and displayed directly on the control unit. The instrument is particularly suitable for on-site investigations of surface waters, water quality monitoring and the inspection of water treatment processes. The U-51 version is equipped with a 10-metre sensor cable and enables the simultaneous display of up to 10 measured and calculated values. The extended cable length allows measurements at locations that are difficult to access directly, such as deeper sampling points, riverbanks, reservoirs and water treatment facilities.

The HORIBA U-52G (10 m) from the U-50 series enables mobile multi-parameter measurements using a combined sensor probe. Various water parameters can be recorded within a single measurement process and displayed directly on the control unit. The instrument is particularly suitable for on-site investigations of surface waters, water quality monitoring and the inspection of water treatment processes. The U-52G version is equipped with a 10-metre sensor cable and enables the simultaneous display of up to 11 measured and calculated values. Unlike the U-52 version, the HORIBA U-52G additionally features an integrated GPS function and water depth measurement. This allows water quality data to be assigned to a geographical measurement location and a specific depth. The integrated LED turbidity sensor also enables the measurement of water turbidity together with other relevant water quality parameters. The extended sensor cable enables measurements at deeper and difficult-to-access sampling locations. Combined with GPS and depth measurement, this supports the traceable documentation of water investigations at different locations and measurement depths. Measuring Parameters of the HORIBA U-52G The multi-parameter measuring instrument records important physical and chemical parameters for assessing water quality. pH value: Assessment of the acidic or alkaline characteristics of a water sample. Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP): Measurement of the electrochemical oxidation-reduction potential. Dissolved Oxygen (DO): Monitoring the oxygen content in water.

GPS is an additional function for assigning measurement locations and is not a physicochemical water parameter. Functions and Features The HORIBA U-52G combines a multifunctional sensor probe with a portable control unit. This allows several water parameters to be recorded within a single measurement process, without requiring a separate measuring instrument for each parameter. Integrated LED Turbidity Measurement The integrated turbidity sensor uses an LED-based optical measurement method with 30-degree forward light scattering. This enables the determination of turbidity caused by suspended particles in the water. Turbidity measurements provide useful additional information when assessing surface waters, wastewater and other water samples in which suspended solids may be present. Integrated GPS Function The HORIBA U-52G features an integrated GPS receiver for determining the geographical position of the measurement location. The location information enables the spatial assignment of recorded water quality data. This allows measurements at different sampling locations to be documented and compared in a traceable manner. This is particularly useful for environmental monitoring, water investigations and recurring measurement campaigns. GPS positioning requires adequate reception conditions. Integrated Water Depth Measurement The HORIBA U-52G features an integrated pressure sensor for determining water depth. The measuring range is 0 to 30 metres. Water depth measurement makes it possible to assign water quality parameters to a specific measurement depth. This supports the investigation of different water layers and the documentation of measurement profiles. With this version, the 10-metre sensor cable limits the practically achievable measurement depth. The measuring range of the integrated depth sensor must therefore not be equated with the actual achievable operating depth. Clear Measurement Display The control unit features a backlit monochrome graphic display on which the recorded measurement values are clearly presented. This facilitates the assessment of water quality directly at the measuring location. Data Storage and Transfer The instrument offers a storage capacity of up to 10,000 data sets.

Extended Applications with a 10-Metre Cable The 10-metre sensor cable allows the sensor probe to be positioned at a greater distance from the control unit. The operator can carry out measurements from a suitable and easily accessible location. This is particularly useful for measurements from bridges, jetties, platforms, riverbanks and other sampling locations where direct access to the water is limited. The longer cable also enables measurements at different water depths. Water parameters can therefore be recorded at various measuring points within a body of water and assigned to the corresponding measurement depth to investigate possible differences in water quality. Calibration and Sensor Maintenance The integrated calibration functions support the preparation of the measuring instrument for reliable measurements. Regular calibration, cleaning and maintenance of the sensors in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions are necessary to ensure consistently meaningful results.

Water depth measurement makes it possible to assign water quality parameters to a specific measurement depth. This supports the investigation of different water layers and the documentation of measurement profiles. The 30-metre sensor cable enables the use of the depth measurement range under suitable operating conditions. The actual achievable measurement depth depends on local conditions, cable routing and the manufacturer's specifications. Clear Measurement Display The control unit features a backlit monochrome graphic display on which the recorded measurement values are clearly presented. This facilitates the assessment of water quality directly at the measuring location. Data Storage and Transfer The instrument offers a storage capacity of up to 10,000 data sets. Stored measurement data can be transferred via the USB interface for further documentation and evaluation. Designed for Mobile Use The robust construction and water-protected components are designed for measurements under demanding operating conditions. The sensor probe complies with protection class IP68, while the control unit complies with protection class IP67 when the sensor cable is connected. Extended Applications with a 30-Metre Cable The 30-metre sensor cable allows the sensor probe to be positioned at a greater distance from the control unit. The operator can carry out measurements from a suitable and easily accessible location. This is particularly useful for measurements from bridges, jetties, platforms, riverbanks and other sampling locations where direct access to the water is limited. The longer cable also enables measurements at different water depths. Water parameters can therefore be recorded at various measuring points within a body of water and assigned to the corresponding measurement depth to investigate possible differences in water quality. Calibration and Sensor Maintenance The integrated calibration functions support the preparation of the measuring instrument for reliable measurements. Regular calibration, cleaning and maintenance of the sensors in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions are necessary to ensure consistently meaningful results.
