Updated 1/5/2010
Analogue Signal - 8 Differential Inputs or 16 Single Ended Inputs

Options for SDI-12 or RS-485 digital networks
The AquaDAT  is a low cost, flexible analogue building block for the creation of data acquisition systems and to add sensor support to stand-alone data loggers. It is rugged in construction and is immersion-proof by design. The AquaDAT will operate with any other device supporting the SDI-12 or RS-485 digital network. The interface offers full support of for many different sensor inputs such as thermistors, strain gauges, load cells, thermocouples etc.
