Overview
The Seametrics PT2X is ideal for observing flow patterns, testing pumps, and monitoring groundwater, well, tank and tidal levels. A pressure and temperature sensor with integrated data logging, this sensor is constructed with 316 stainless steel, fluoropolymer, PTFE—providing highly accurate readings in rugged and corrosive field conditions.
Sensor
- Measures pressure, temperature, and time
- Available in absolute, gauge, or sealed gauge
- Thermally compensated
- ± 0.05% FSO typical accuracy
- Low power: 2 internal AA batteries
- External power options (12 VDC) with AA’s acting as backup
- 316 stainless steel, fluoropolymer, and PTFE construction (titanium optional)
- Available for both Modbus and SDI-12 protocols
Data Logger
- Non-volatile memory: Data will not be lost in the event of a power failure
- Flexible, multi-phase logging sequences: Measure at specified intervals and save instructions to disk for reuse
- Pause logging feature: Temporarily pause the logging while repositioning or transporting the sensor
- Delayed start feature: State a specific future start time, making it easy to set several sensors to start at the same time
Cabling & Networking
- Wireless connectivity
- RS485 network: Allows several sensors to be networked together and provides much longer cable leads
- Field-serviceable connectors: Easily remove the connector, route the cable through well seals, walls, or conduit, and then replace the connector
- Available cableless or with a variety of cable options, including polyethylene, polyurethane, and FEP
Software
- Comes with free Aqua4Plus control software to get up and running immediately
- View data in real-time
- Easy export to spreadsheets and databases
- Barometric compensation utility for use with absolute sensors
- Update sensor via firmware while in the field

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.
