The AP-6000 is a larger advanced water monitoring system designed for people looking for a water quality monitor with further opportunities for customisation. The AP-6000 can be used for comprehensive spot monitoring as part of a package or it can be used in permanent deployments thanks to its new, much smaller self cleaning mechanism. It features a diameter of only 55mm (the same size as the AP-5000) making it our smallest self cleaning Aquaprobe to date.
Four Auxiliary Sockets
The AP-6000 features 4 Auxiliary sockets to allow you to add further sensors to the probe. Unlike the AP-2000, these auxiliary ports are unrestricted. This means that each port can take either an Ion Selective Electrode (ISE) or an optical sensor. This makes the number of potential sensor combinations vast. The probe can be used with a variety of cable lengths via the AquaConn Connectors. Cables available in 3, 10, 20 and 30m lengths as standard.
Optional parameters available include -
Ammonium
Nitrate
Chloride
Calcium
Turbidity
Fluoride
Blue green algae – freshwater
Blue green algae - marine water
Rhodamine
Fluorescein
Chlorophyll
Refined Oils
CDOM / FDOM
NEW SELF CLEANING SYSTEM ON THE AP-6000
The new, smaller removable central cleaning arm of the AP-6000 consists of a rotating set of brushes that clean all of the connected sensors, including the EC sensor located on the side of the optical DO probe. The cleaning arm, that features a small motor inside, can be easily unscrewed for maintenance, brush replacement and cleaning. Wiping the sensors regularly in this way can increase the deployment duration substantially, even in demanding environments.
The main advantages of the AP-6000 are its versatility and its price point. The Aquaprobe is small enough to be used portably as part of a package including carry case, but it can also be used with an Aqualogger or with telemetry if you require a more determinant monitoring solution.
