Vernier® Go Direct™ Salinity Sensors

Precisely measures the total dissolved salt content of ocean or brackish water.

• Easy-to-use computer- or browser-based software
• Bluetooth connectivity for cord-free data collection

The Go Direct Salinity sensor easily and precisely measures the total dissolved salt content in an aqueous solution. You have the ability to measure temperature-compensated salinity or non-temperature-compensated salinity, along with temperature. Measure water with a wide variety of salinities, from brackish water to ocean water, and even hyper-saline environments. You can also study how salinity affects buoyancy or monitor salinity values in estuaries where freshwater mixes with ocean water.

It features a built-in temperature sensor to simultaneously read salinity and temperature. Automatic temperature compensation allows students to calibrate the probe in the lab and then make measurements outdoors without temperature changes affecting data. This temperature compensation can be turned off to perform salinity studies as a function of temperature.
