HYDROS Probe Port

Probes are Only as Good as Their Signal

Aquarium systems typically include a lot of high power electronics such as pumps, heaters, and lights. Even the best of these devices leak some amount of electrical current into the water causing readout noise.

No Ordinary Input

A Probe Port is a universal input that provides the very best readouts from your probes.

The HYDROS Control system requires analog inputs for connecting pH, ORP, and other analog probes. Up until now, poor performance due to the lack of noise immunity, extremely high input current, and many design flaws have plagued these inputs with constant issues. The HYDROS Control system uses several techniques to achieve accurate, noise-resistant, and highly repeatable input readings from a pH probe.

The Control X4 Probe Ports ensure your readings will be accurate and reliable.

Intro to Digital Galvanic Isolation

The circuitry is based on an ultra-high-quality input chip specifically designed for these types of probes. Each input provides Digital Galvanic Isolation (DGI) from the rest of the system. Probes send small electrical signals to the port. The signals are converted into usable data like pH and ORP levels. Even the slightest electrical interference from pumps, motors, and other equipment can cause fluctuations in the measurements and provide inaccurate readings. DGI prevents signal interference by converting it to the digital domain.

Step 1. Install Probe

Remove probe cap and securely install within your sump or calcium reactor.

Step 2. Connect to Controller

Connect BNC Probe to either of the Control X4 Probe Ports.

Step 3. Add to App

Select the location of the probe and enter your desired settings.
