The AML916 Groundwater Six-Parameter Analyzer is a portable multiparameter water quality instrument designed for groundwater monitoring, environmental field testing, monitoring well sampling, and water quality assessment.
The instrument measures six important groundwater parameters in one device: temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), electrical conductivity (EC), and turbidity.
By combining multiple measurements into a single portable system, AML916 helps environmental monitoring teams reduce the amount of equipment required in the field while obtaining real-time groundwater data.
What Does the AML916 Groundwater Analyzer Measure?
AML916 measures six commonly monitored groundwater quality parameters:
- Water temperature
- pH
- Dissolved oxygen (DO)
- Oxidation-reduction potential (ORP)
- Electrical conductivity (EC)
- Turbidity
These parameters provide important information about groundwater chemistry and water quality conditions.
Instead of carrying separate instruments for different measurements, field technicians can use AML916 to collect multiple parameters during the same groundwater monitoring operation.
Why Use a Multiparameter Groundwater Analyzer?
Groundwater monitoring often requires technicians to visit multiple monitoring wells and collect measurements under field conditions.
Using separate meters for temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, conductivity, ORP and turbidity can increase the amount of equipment that must be transported, operated and maintained.
A multiparameter groundwater analyzer simplifies this workflow by integrating multiple sensors into one system.
AML916 is designed for applications where technicians need to:
- Measure several groundwater parameters at the same monitoring well
- Obtain real-time field measurements
- Reduce the number of separate instruments
- Improve field measurement efficiency
- Maintain consistent groundwater monitoring procedures
- Reduce equipment transportation and maintenance requirements
Six Groundwater Parameters in One Instrument
1. pH
pH is an important indicator of groundwater chemistry and is commonly monitored during environmental investigations and groundwater quality assessments.
2. Dissolved Oxygen
Dissolved oxygen provides information about the oxygen conditions within groundwater and can be useful for evaluating groundwater chemistry and environmental conditions.
3. Oxidation-Reduction Potential
ORP helps characterize the oxidation-reduction conditions of groundwater and can provide useful information for environmental monitoring and groundwater assessment.
4. Electrical Conductivity
Electrical conductivity is commonly used as an indicator of the concentration of dissolved ions in water and can help identify changes in groundwater conditions.
5. Turbidity
Turbidity provides information about suspended particles in water and is an important parameter during groundwater sampling and monitoring.
6. Water Temperature
Temperature affects many physical and chemical properties of groundwater and is therefore commonly recorded together with other water quality parameters.
Real-Time Groundwater Data Display
AML916 uses a 4.3-inch high-definition display to show measurement information in the field.
Technicians can view multiple groundwater parameters directly during monitoring instead of switching between several individual instruments.
Real-time data display can help field teams identify abnormal readings and make timely decisions during groundwater sampling and monitoring operations.
Designed for Groundwater Monitoring Wells
AML916 is suitable for groundwater monitoring projects where measurements need to be collected directly from monitoring wells or other groundwater sampling locations.
Typical applications include:
- Groundwater monitoring wells
- Environmental site investigations
- Groundwater quality surveys
- Environmental monitoring stations
- Contaminated site investigations
- Hydrogeological investigations
- Routine groundwater field testing
- Groundwater sampling projects
The appropriate measurement method and sensor configuration should be selected according to the project requirements and applicable monitoring standards.
Simplified Field Monitoring Workflow
A conventional groundwater monitoring workflow may require technicians to carry several individual meters for different parameters.
AML916 combines six measurements into one multiparameter system, helping simplify field operations.
A typical workflow is:
Monitoring well → Sensor deployment → Six-parameter measurement → Real-time observation → Data recording → Groundwater monitoring report
This integrated approach can reduce equipment handling and make routine monitoring more efficient.
Modular Turbidity Sensor Design
AML916 uses a modular turbidity measurement design.
The turbidity module can be removed by rotating it 90 degrees clockwise, allowing maintenance and calibration operations to be performed more conveniently.
For field monitoring organizations managing multiple instruments, easier sensor maintenance can reduce downtime and simplify routine equipment servicing.
Calibration procedures should be performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions and the requirements of the applicable measurement standard.
Measurement Accuracy and Sensor Configuration
AML916 uses imported core sensors combined with AIMOLI’s signal-processing technology.
The product is designed to provide stable measurements for groundwater monitoring applications, with measurement performance depending on the selected sensor, operating conditions, calibration status and environmental conditions.
For projects requiring specific accuracy or compliance requirements, customers should confirm the applicable parameter ranges, accuracy specifications and calibration procedures with AIMOLI before purchase.
AML916 for Groundwater Sampling
AML916 is a measurement instrument, not a groundwater sampling pump.
A complete groundwater monitoring workflow may use different types of equipment for different tasks:
Groundwater sampling pump → collects groundwater
AML916 multiparameter analyzer → measures groundwater parameters
Downhole camera → visually inspects the monitoring well
This combination can provide both physical sampling data and visual information about the monitoring well.
For example, AML916 can be used together with the AML918 Groundwater Sampling Pump or AML919 Low-Flow Bladder Pump depending on the groundwater sampling method.
AML916 vs. Individual Water Quality Meters
For projects requiring six groundwater parameters, separate meters can increase the amount of equipment that technicians need to transport and operate.
AML916 integrates multiple measurements into one portable system.
