General

Modules expand the capabilities of the SmartSampler by adding dedicated hardware functions such as sampling, sensing, pumping, switching, or processing tasks. Each Module is fully controlled through the SmartSampler interface and is designed to work reliably in demanding field conditions.

Modules connect using a weatherproof, locking connector that provides both power and data communication, ensuring a simple and robust plug-and-play workflow. Once connected, the SmartSampler automatically manages timing, triggering, logging, and coordination between multiple Modules.

Every Module follows the same principles:

  • Purpose-built hardware for a specific function (e.g., sampling, flow control, gas handling, bubble logging)
  • Reliable field operation, often with IP-rated enclosures
  • Modular expansion, allowing several Modules to be used together in one system
  • Flexible triggers, such as time schedules, sensor thresholds, or remote commands
  • Consistent installation, maintenance, and diagnostic workflows

By combining the SmartSampler with one or more Modules, you can create a tailored automation setup that matches your exact application—whether you work in environmental monitoring, hydrology, agriculture, ecosystem research, or laboratory fieldwork.
