Palintest has launched its Macro 900
system for multi-parameter water
quality monitoring. Combining
portable hi-tech functionality with
excellent ergonomics in an easy-touse
package, Macro 900 WQS is
suitable for environmental surveys,
aquaculture applications and wastewater
and surface water monitoring.
The Macro 900 meter forms the
core of the system. It is waterproof,
battery-powered and includes three
dimensional GPS positioning,
storing up to 1900 full data sets of
results. The high-contrast LCD is
backlit for use in low light
environments and the rubberised
function keys are designed for use
even with wet or gloved hands.

Macro Accessory Probes allow the
system to monitor parameters such
as: pH, conductivity, TDS, turbidity,
depth and both optical and galvanic
Dissolved Oxygen (automatically
compensated for atmospheric
pressure and salinity). Probes are
simple to maintain, made in marine
grade aluminium and are just 48mm
in diameter.
