Solinst Eureka: Water Probes
Solinst Eureka: Water Probes
Originally established in 2002, Solinst Eureka a global leader in the design and manufacture of multiparameter water quality sondes. Solinst Eureka offers the largest selection of sensor technologies for multiprobes in the industry.
Solinst Eureka Water Quality Sondes are a versatile and reliable choice for monitoring water quality in fresh, brackish, and marine waters. They can be used for discrete sampling, profiling, as self-powered loggers, or connected to telemetry stations for continuous real-time monitoring, with water quality data accessible via cloud-based software.
In addition to the latest technology for measuring common parameters in the field, such as temperature, pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, and depth, Eureka provides specialty sensors like PAR and Total Dissolved Gas, as well as a long list of fluorometers – for example, those used for the early detection of harmful algal blooms or for dye trace studies.
Water Quality Sondes for Every Application
Trimeter and Manta Probes are multi-parameter sondes for monitoring water quality in fresh, brackish and marine waters. All sondes may be used for discrete sampling, profiling, as self-powered loggers, or connected to telemetry stations for continuous real-time monitoring, with water quality data accessible via cloud-based software. Our sondes communicate RS-232, SDI-12 or Modbus, for flexibility in connecting to a variety of different data loggers and PLC’s.
Solinst Eureka offers the largest selection of water quality sensor technologies in the industry. So in addition to standard configurations, each probe may be customized for your specific application. Pick sensors of your choice to fully populate larger probes, or add a battery pack to convert a probe to a logging device.
All Trimeter and Manta probes feature anti-corrosive housings and sensors, robust marine bulkhead connectors, and anti-fouling options. LED status indicators on each sonde provide important diagnostic information. Each probe includes an industry-leading 3 year warranty.
Operate your Trimeter and Manta probes with a variety of display options, via a direct or Bluetooth connection. Intuitive control software, available for Windows, iOS and Android is included at no additional cost with every probe.
Solinst Eureka Multi-parameter Sondes
Trimeter
Solinst Eureka’s compact, low cost Trimeter is designed for projects that require the same high-quality features of a Manta+ probe, but fewer sensors.
Manta +20
The portable, yet rugged Manta+20 Multi-parameter Sonde is well suited for site-to-site spot checking or profiling, in any type of water. The Manta +20 fits in a backpack too!
Manta +25
Solinst Eureka’s compact Manta+25 Multi-parameter Sonde is an excellent choice when your application calls for turbidity monitoring, but only a few additional sensors.
Manta +30
Solinst Eureka’s Manta+30 Multi-paramater Sonde packs big 4, ORP, depth, and wipered turbidity – plus one ISE sensor, all into one small rugged probe.
Manta +35
Solinst Eureka’s Manta +35 Multi-parameter Sonde accommodates up to 11 different sensors, making it extremely versatile for a wide variety of water quality monitoring applications.
Manta F35
Tired of cleaning fouled sensors? Tired of losing data? Solinst Eureka’s Manta F35 features it’s highly successful Manta+35 Multi-parameter Sonde fitted with a copper nose cone, central wiper blade and more.
Manta +40
Solinst Manta+40, hold more sensors than any multi-parameter probe in the industry. It is ideal for long-term telemetry deployments.
Easy Probe
You’ve never seen this performance at this price in a water-quality monitor.
Solinst Eureka Multiparameter Sonde Options
Sensors
The highest quality sensor technology, for unsurpassed accuracy and reliability.
Temperature
Solinst Eureka instruments measure temperature with a thermistor – a small semiconductor whose electrical resistance varies predictably with temperature.
pH
pH is measured with a pH sensor and reference electrode. The pH sensor is a small, glass bulb filled with an electrolyte of known pH.
Turbidity
Turbidity is an indication of the amount of light that will pass through a column of water. Clear waters have low turbidity; waters with high suspended solids have high turbidities.
Transmittance
A transmissometer measures the percentage of light transmitted along a fixed path. Solinst Eureka integrates 3rd party transmissometers, which are mounted externally to the Manta multiprobe.
Dissolved Oxygen
Solinst Eureka optical DO sensors use blue light that is directed to an oxygen-active compound which has been stabilized in an oxygen-permeable polymer. The blue light causes the oxygen-active compound to fluoresce
Conductivity
The easy to clean, flow-through design of the Solinst Eureka conductivity sensor is superior to those with electrodes partially hidden in a recess.
Pressure
An absolute depth sensor (pressure transducer), or vented depth sensor, may be added to any Manta or Trimeter multiprobe, along with other sensors.
Total Dissolved Gas
Solinst Eureka’s TDG sensor is similar to others in the water quality monitoring industry. However, Solinst Eureka is one of the few multiprobe manufacturers that offers a TDG sensor that may also be installed on a multiprobe along with additional sensors, such as dissolved oxygen, turbidity, pH and conductivity.
Flourescein
Solinst Eureka uses Fluorescein sensors. The Fluorescein sensor may be installed in the probe, along with other sensors such as additional fluorometers, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, pH and conductivity. This makes for a cost-effective approach, as there is no need to buy a dedicated fluorometer.
ISE Ion-Selective Electrodes
Solinst Eureka’s flowing-junction reference electrode provides better long-term stability than gelled-electrolyte reference electrode. The reference electrode is easily rejuvenated by unscrewing the tip, filling the sensor with fresh electrolyte, and screwing the tip back into place.
PAR
Most PAR (photosynthetically active radiation) sensors when coupled with multiparameter water quality sondes need additional mounting brackets, or cages, to hold the PAR sensor in place. This is not necessary for Solinst Eureka’s PAR sensors, as they are connected to the body of the sonde. For convenience, Solinst Eureka’s PAR sensors may be removed and replaced with a water-proof plug when not in use.
CO2
Solinst Eureka’s CO₂ (Carbon Dioxide) sensors are the best of their kind for portable, water-quality instruments. Although it is a large sensor, it may be installed in the MantaPlus 40 multiprobe along with other sensors such as dissolved oxygen, pH and conductivity.
