The Aquaread AquaTel is a plug-and-play cellular telemetry unit that sends water quality or water level data from an Aquaprobe, an AP-PRO or a LeveLine to the web. It recognises the connected probe and reads its memory to find which sensors are fitted, so there are no SDI-12 registers or parameter units to set up. Built in carbon fibre and aluminium, it has a 4G modem, a GPS receiver that tags the deployment location and a barometric sensor for automatic compensation of dissolved oxygen and water level.

Setup is done by text message: send Po to store its position and Re to get the current readings before leaving site. Data goes to the Inoview online platform or to your own FTP address, up to 16 alarms can be sent to as many as 40 stored phone numbers, and the unit holds over 150,000 data sets if the network drops. Choose the version for Aquaprobe and PRO probes or the version for LeveLine loggers. SIM card, data hosting and batteries are not included.
