Overview
The HOBO MX2204 TidbiT waterproof temperature logger leverages the power of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to deliver high-accuracy temperature measurements straight to your iOS or Android mobile device. Designed for durability, this rugged waterproof logger is ideal for long-term deployments in streams, lakes, and oceans. Data collection in the field has never been easier!

Temperature Sensor (MX2203 and MX2204)
|
Range
|
MX2203: -20° to 70°C (-4° to 158°F) in air; -20° to 50°C (-4° to 122°F) in water

±0.25°C from -20° to 0°C (±.45°F from -4° to 32°F)
±0.2°C from 0° to 70°C (±0.36°F from 32° to 158°F)
|
Resolution
|
0.01°C (0.018°F)
|
Drift
|

1 mW (0 dBm)
|
Transmission Range
|
Approximately 30.5 m (100 ft) line-of-sight
|
Wireless Data Standard
|
Bluetooth Smart (Bluetooth Low Energy, Bluetooth 4.0)
|
Logger Operating Range
|
-20° to 70°C (-4° to 158°F)
|
Logging Rate
|
1 second to 18 hours
|
Buoyancy (Fresh Water)
|
MX2203: 3.1 g (0.11 oz) negative
MX2204: 7.6 g (0.27 oz) negative
|
Waterproof
|
MX2203: To 122 m (400 ft)
MX2204: To 1,524 m (5,000 ft)
|
Water Detection
|
Water conductivity level of 100 µS/cm or greater necessary for reliable detection of water. Deionized water or water below 100 µS/cm may not be detected.
The water conductivity circuit may not reliably detect water that has frozen around the electrodes, i.e. below 0°C (32°F).
|
Memory
|
96,000 measurements
|
Battery
|
CR2477 3V lithium, user replaceable in MX2203, non-replaceable in MX2204
|
Battery Life
|
3 years, typical at 25°C (77°F) with logging interval of 1 minute and Bluetooth Always Off disabled in software.
5 years, typical at 25°C (77°F) with logging interval of 1 minute and Bluetooth Always Off or Bluetooth Off Water Detect enabled in software.
Faster logging intervals and statistics sampling intervals, burst logging, remaining connected with the app, excessive downloads, and paging may impact battery life.
To ensure proper battery installation, see Battery Information for detailed instructions on replacing the battery in the MX2203 logger.
|
