Environment IT provides design, installation and maintenance of water quality monitoring stations. The stations use the eTech data recorder technology to coordinate the collection of water quality parameters and store and forward information to a remote terminal via GSM if required. Water parameters measured may include temperature, pH, EC, dissolved oxygen, depth and turbidity.

EIT uses third party instrumentation for parameter measurement and interfaces sensor output (analogue and serial ) to the eTech data recorder.

Local networks of water monitoring stations may be networked using the EIT radio telemetry devices

EIT Water Quality monitoring station measuring pH, EC, water temperature and depth. Data is collected at 10 minute intervals and stored in recorder memory for automatic uploading to remote PC once per day using the EIT data recorder software. Water quality can be accessed in real time from remote PC via digital telephone network Water depth is measured using quadrature shaft encoder connected to EIT R tech series data recorder via IPC device.  Data retrieved via GSM data modem to remote computer using digital (GSM) telephone network.  This water quality station was designed, installed, commissioned and is maintained by EIT f for Richmond River County Council under the Acid Sulfate Soils  / Clean Seas / Coastal Protection Project administered by the Federal Government of Australia

Water quality - catchment hydrology - monitoring the quality of water run-off from cane lands associated with acid sulfate soils at McLeods Ck in the Tweed Valley of Northern News South Wales - Australia

This project networks 10 EIT water quality stations via local radio telemetry. These stations are monitoring pH, EC, temperature and depth. Information from each site is telemetered to an EIT weather station for data archiving and forwarding to a remote terminal via GSM.

Water quality - Tuckean Landcare Acid Sulfate Soils Project - two water quality stations established November, 2000 to continuously record pH, EC, water temperature and depth. A base station comprises of eTech 6 data recorder, radio telemetry, GSM and instrumentation for water monitoring. A second station 1 km downstream comprises of  monitoring sensors and EIT radio telemetry to transmit data to the base station.
