The CTD sensor is an interchangeable sensor that works with HOBO MX800 Series Water Loggers to measure conductivity, temperature, and water level. With this sensor attached to a HOBO MX800 Series Water Logger, the logger can also calculate specific conductance, salinity, and total dissolved solids (TDS).
The CTD sensor can be attached directly to the fully submersible MX801 model, or attached via cable to the direct read MX802 model, which doesn’t require having to pull the sensor out of the water to download data.

| *Water Level Accuracy: With accurate reference water level measurement, known water density, and a stable temperature environment. System Water Level Accuracy equals the sum of the Barometric Water Level Accuracy plus the selected CTD sensor Water Level Accuracy. | |
| ** Raw Pressure Accuracy: Absolute pressure sensor accuracy includes all sensor drift, temperature, and hysteresis-induced errors. | |
| ***Changes in Temperature: Allow 20 minutes in water to achieve full temperature compensation of the pressure sensor. There can be up to 0.5% of additional error due to rapid temperature changes. | |
