The YSI MultiLab line of instruments provide easy to use and easy- to-calibrate menu-driven operation ideal for any laboratory. These one, two, or three channel benchtop meters for the measurement of pH, ORP, conductivity and/or optical-based dissolved oxygen (BOD) are ideal for highly accurate lab testing.
The instruments feature a large, easy to read display, Intelligent Digital Sensors (IDS) for plug-and-play connectivity, and a 3-year instrument warranty
Intelligent Digital Sensors (IDS)
The IDS sensors automatically store their unique serial number and calibration data. The sensors maintain their calibration data when moved from instrument to instrument and transmit this information to the new instrument so you don’t have to re-calibrate. In addition, they also digitally process the measurement signal.
- Plug-and-play connectivity in any combination with all MultiLab instruments
- Sensors store their own unique ID with serial number and calibration status
- Automatic sensor recognition with digital signal processing and data transfer
- Includes self-stirring Optical-Based DO/BOD, pH, ORP, and conductivity sensors
CMC
The CMC function displays continual monitoring of the sensor’s measuring range. The range is represented with a bar and calibration points are shown as vertical lines at the cal point. A moving cursor shows the current measured value and indicates if the measurement is within the calibrated range.
Laboratory Quality Sensor Control (QSC)
The QSC is a system to monitor the condition of the pH electrodes. An initial calibration is performed and, afterwards, the sensor status is monitored and graphically displayed.
The YSI IDS ProOBOD self- stirring optical BOD probe, powered by the instrument, has a built-in sensor guard to protect the sensing tip from damage while placing it into the BOD bottles.
Superior Bench top Measurement
The MultiLab line provides high accuracy measurements for the lab. Measure conductivity, pH, ORP, or DO for BOD calculations confidently and quickly with the full range of IDS sensors. Also capable of using non- IDS pH or ORP sensors with a simple adapter for sensors with DIN or BNC connectors.
Data Management
Beyond simply viewing data on the highly visible, graphic displays, data can also be managed with the following features:
- send real time data AND stored data to the PC via USB in .csv and ASCII formats. Capable of interfacing with LIMS.
- ability to transfer stored data in ASCII and .csv formats via USB memory stick (4010-2 and 4010-3 only)
- ability to send data to external printers (4010-2 and 4010-3 only)
- works with BOD Analyst Pro desktop software to automatically calculate BOD values
ProOBOD - Use in the lab with the ProODO ®
The IDS ProOBOD® self-stirring optical BOD probe for use with the YSI MultiLab. Designed to fit into standard 300 mL BOD bottles. EPA approved for wastewater compliance reporting of BOD and CBOD.
The ProOBOD is designed for use with the MultiLab 4010-1, 4010-2, or 4010-3 instruments. Optical, luminescent technology eliminates the probe warm-up period and membrane changes. The self-stirring BOD probe has a super quiet lab stirrer that helps ensure a representative sample and improves DO response times.
The YSI ProOBOD probe is used with the YSI ProODO handheld optical dissolved oxygen instrument. The ProODO instrument is a rugged, durable handheld for the lab or ?eld. The instrument boasts a 3-year warranty and comes with YSI’s exclusive Data Manager desktop software, USB cable, and ProComm II communications saddle.
The ProOBOD easily connects to the ProODO handheld and makes it convenient to conduct lab BOD’s with a very compact footprint.
