PHXR Rockwool pH Monitor with Probes
GrowControl™ PHXR precision digital pH and temperature monitor for rockwool, with a spear-tip probe for continuous pH monitoring in the media.
Rockwool pH Monitoring
GrowControl™ PHXR is a precision digital pH and temperature monitor for rockwool media.
Its spear-tipped pH probe inserts into semi-solid media for continuous, real-time pH monitoring in most rockwool.
Stand-alone or Networked
Use it as a stand-alone logger, or connect it to a GrowControl™ GCX for centralized data logging, alerts and control. The optional color display and three-button interface add monitoring and alerts at the unit.
- Internal memory logs 20,000 data points per sensor, for months or years of storage.
- A real-time clock with battery backup keeps log times accurate through power outages.
- Precision digital electronics with isolated probe inputs read and record the sensor data accurately.
- Download logs to .CSV and graph them on a PC with the LX1 and free software.

The water content of properly maintained and irrigated rockwool is enough for continuous monitoring. The spear probe can also check soils and other soilless media, but these can become too dry for continuous monitoring.
