- Can connect sensors directly (MX801), or cables to sensors (MX802)
- Protective housing screws on and off for easy access to sensors
- Free ground shipping
- Expedited repair and warranty service
- Lifetime technical support

This adapter supports the connection of any two sensors to one MX800 data logger- Dissolved Oxygen (W-DO), Conductivity Sensor (W-CT), and CTD sensor (W-CTD-xx).
Sensors can be attached directly to the fully submersible MX801 model, or to the end of a W-series cable that's connected to the direct-read MX802 model. Two sensors of the same type can be attached to monitor at multiple depths. When using a DO with CT or CTD combination, salinity-adjusted DO readings are logged directly without a need to perform post-processing.
The 2-sensor adapter comes with a sensor guard that screws onto the adapter to prevent damage to sensors while allowing ample water flow. Users also have an option to purchase an additional anti-biofouling guard (W-GUARD-2), which extends time between sensor cleanings by reducing fouling of the sensor.
Full Length: 12.3"
Full Length with Anti-Fouling Guard: 12.5"
Diameter: 2.385"
Diameter with Anti-Fouling Guard: 2.5"
- 2-Sensor Adapter
- 2 sets of couplers for attaching the two sensors
- Sensor bracket for holding sensors together
- Sensor guard
- Set screws to lock sensor guard into adapter
- Tapered coupler for attaching adapter to a W-Series direct read cable

Angler-Driven Citizen Science: Monitoring Black Bass Populations in Arkansas
In Arkansas, the rugged terrain of the Ozark and Ouachita Mountains dominates the north and west, eventually yielding to the vast, fertile flatlands of the Mississippi River Delta to the east. Hundreds of reservoirs and lakes punctuate the landscape, while swift streams snake through the valleys and hills, eventually giving way to the slow-moving rivers and bayous in the south. The waterways of the state are teeming with life. Black bass dominate most of these ecosystems and have drawn anglers for centuries. The most sought-after fish in one of the country's most prominent fishing states, Arkansas treasures its black bass populations.

White Lake in Western Michigan is a vestige of North America’s glacial past, and gets its name from an interpretation of the Indian, “Wabish-Sippe,” meaning the river with white clay. The twin towns of Whitehall and Montague, which nestle on White Lake’s shore, have shared a close connection with the lake since their foundation–from the growth of the lumbering industry, to industrializsation, the expansion of tourism, and most recently, environmental protection. The White Lake Association (WLA) was founded in 1988 by residents concerned about proposed development at the lake’s northern end.

The flow dynamics of rivers and streams play an essential role in the chemical and physical functions of aquatic ecosystems. In Maine, varying flows in the Penobscot River Basin have impacted the health of the ecosystem, water resource use, and habitat suitability for native species—topics of particular concern to the Penobscot Indian Nation , who have been protecting and managing the waterway for millennia. Parts of the Penobscot basin have been monitored by the USGS stream gage network, which covers larger streams and rivers but excludes many of the small streams found on tribal lands.
