Overview
The YSI ProQuatro, along with its Quatro cable, allows the use of 4-ports to measure temperature/conductivity, DO, and any two ISEs among pH, ORP, ammonium, chloride, or nitrate creating an extremely powerful handheld multiparameter instrument. Sensors are not included in meter purchases.
Versatile
Connect any Professional Series cable and probe option to the instrument and use the convenient cable management kit to keep everything simple and organized. Cable options range from 1-, 4-, 10-, 20-, and 30-meter choices (up to 100-meters on DO-only cables). Use lab or field probes and switch between the two quickly. The ProQuatro makes an ideal lab BOD instrument with the proven self-stirring BOD probe (EPA Approved). A complete family of accessories also increases the versatility of the YSI ProQuatro. Choose among accessories including carrying cases, flow cells, cable weight, belt clip, and tripod.

Monitoring Aquatic Ecosystems: How Science Drives Waterway Management in Northwest Georgia
The University of Georgia is home to multiple labs that focus on monitoring aquatic ecosystems and organisms across the state. The River Basin Center connects these monitoring efforts with external partners, including government agencies and NGOs, to inform management and restoration of the state’s waterways. Phillip Bumpers is a Postdoctoral Associate in the Rosemond lab and the Wenger lab at the Odum School of Ecology and an affiliate of the River Basin Center. An aquatic ecologist, Bumpers’ research focuses on quantifying how environmental variability shapes aquatic ecosystems and understanding the drivers of these trends.

With a widely developed shoreline, Chautauqua Lake experiences influxes of non-point source pollution that have historically impacted the health of the lake. The Chautauqua Lake Association (CLA) has been monitoring the lake for over two decades, reporting on changes that have occurred over the years. A pair of local lake advocates, Jane and Doug Conroe, have lived on the lake for over 40 years and have played an important role in establishing monitoring programs and facilitating consistent data collection throughout the watershed. Doug has been involved with the Chautauqua Lake Association (CLA) since the pair moved to the area in 1980, and is currently serving as the Executive Director.

When environmental professionals need a reliable multi-parameter meter with measurement flexibility, the YSI ProQuatro is an affordable option. The YSI meter measures a combination of water temperature, conductivity, pH, ORP, ammonium, nitrate and chloride. Sensors plug into a 4-port bulkhead with an included temperature/conductivity probe. Dissolved oxygen sensors, pH and/or ORP sensors are often selected for the other ports. Alternatively, the ion selective electrodes (ISE’s) ammonium, nitrate and chloride can be installed, though these are less common as frequent calibration is required.
