Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, Wednesday, March 14, 2012 -- (Business Wire India) -- Palintest Ltd, the leader in water analysis technology, is launching the new Macro 900 Water Quality System for multiparameter water quality monitoring. Designed to combine portable hi-tech functionality with excellent ergonomics in an easy-to-use package, the Macro 900 WQS is particularly well-suited for environmental surveys, aquaculture applications and wastewater and surface water monitoring.

The Macro 900 Meter forms the core of the system. It is completely waterproof, battery-powered and includes three dimensional GPS positioning as standard, storing up to 1900 full data sets of results. The high-contrast LCD screen is backlit for use in low light environments and the rubberised function keys are designed for effective use even with wet or gloved hands.

A full range of Macro Accessory Probes allow the system to monitor a wide variety of parameters, including: pH, conductivity, TDS, turbidity, depth and both optical and galvanic Dissolved Oxygen (automatically compensated for atmospheric pressure and salinity). All Macro Accessory Probes are simple to maintain, manufactured in marine grade aluminium and only 48mm in diameter to ease use in narrow boreholes.

In addition to the Meter and Probes, the Macro 900 Water Quality System comes complete with a full range of accessories and consumables, including: extension cables for the Probes, flow cells, MacroLink software, calibration solutions and replacement probes/caps.
