CRS451/CRS456 Submersible
Water-Level Recording Sensor

1. Introduction

The CRS451 consists of a water-level and water-temperature sensor that has its
own time clock and memory to store the collected data, in a compact stainless­steel case. This frees users to place the sensor in remote sites and let it collect data
for long periods of time. The CRS451/CRS456 supports standard time-based
scanning and recording along with event-based recording based on water level
change (Delta) or logarithmic time sequence for pump and slug tests. HydroSci
software is included and supports test set up, data retrieval, and data display.

The CRS451 has a 316L stainless-steel case that can be submerged in most canals,
wells, ponds, lakes, and streams. The CRS456 has a rugged titanium case that
allows it to be used in saltwater or other harsh environments.

Before using the CRS451/CRS456, please study:

 Section 2, Cautionary Statements
 Section 3, Initial Inspection
 Section 6, Installation

2. Cautionary Statements

 The CRS451/CRS456 will be damaged if encased in frozen liquid (see

Section 6.2, Avoiding Freezing Conditions, for more information).

 Although the CRS451/CRS456 is a rugged and reliable device, it is also a

highly precise scientific instrument and should be handled as such.

 Dropping the instrument or allowing it to “free fall” down a well may damage

the transducer.

 Confirm the compatibility of the instrument to non-water environments before

installation.

 The CRS456 should be used in harsh water applications, including salt water.

3. Initial Inspection and Handling Guidelines

 Upon receipt of the CRS451/CRS456, inspect the packaging for any signs of

shipping damage. File damage claims with the shipping company.

 Immediately check package contents against the shipping documentation (see

Section 3.1, Ships With). Contact Campbell Scientific with any discrepancies.

 The model number and pressure range are etched on the housing.

Check this information against the shipping documentation to
ensure that the expected product was received.

4. Overview

The CRS451/CRS456, Submersible Water-Level Recording Sensor, provides
reliable, accurate pressure/level measurements that are fully temperature
compensated.

The 24 bit A/D has simultaneous 50/60 Hz rejection and automatic calibration for
each measurement. A number of additional advanced measurement techniques are
employed to harness the best possible performance available from today’s state of
the art pressure sensor technology. The CRS451/CRS456 reverts to a low power
sleep state between measurements. A series of measurements are performed
yielding a temperature and pressure value. This measurement cycle can be as fast
as 1 second.

The design features a piezoresistive sensor housed in a 316L stainless steel
(CRS451) or titanium (CRS456) package to enhance reliability. The rugged
construction makes the CRS451/CRS456 suitable for water level measurement in
irrigation applications, water wells, lakes, streams, and tanks. The titanium
package of the CRS456 makes it ideal for salt water or other harsh environments.

The CRS451/CRS456 has three nose cone options. The weighted nose cone
makes the transducer easier to submerge to depth. The NPT option allows the
sensor to be mounted to a 1/4 inch fitting. The nose cones can be exchanged at a
later time.

Communicating with the CRS451/CRS456 requires a micro USB cable and
HydroSci software running on a computer with Windows XP or later.
Configurable settings can be changed using Campbell Scientific’s HydroSci
software utility.

The CRS451 is a sealed gauge sensor and when not submerged will read
approximately 1 bar at sea level and less as elevation increases. The CRS451 is
calibrated at 9 pressures starting at 0.6 bar up to full scale referenced to 1 bar.
Points below 1 bar are used in the calibration for the benefit of those who deploy
this sensor at elevations above sea level.

2

The accuracy specification listed pertains to the level of accuracy that the
CRS451/CRS456 is able to measure pressure. If a barometric pressure sensor is
used to remove the component of atmospheric pressure from the pressure reading
provided by the CRS451/CRS456 while submerged in a column of water vented to
the atmosphere, the error of the barometric sensor must be considered when
calculating the resulting accuracy of the water level reading.

3

Total Error Band (TEB) includes the combined errors due to nonlinearity,
hysteresis, non-repeatability, and thermal effects over the compensated
temperature range, per ISA S51.1.

6. Installation

The CRS451/CRS456 is designed for water level measurements. Typical
applications include agricultural water level/flow, water wells, lakes, streams, and
tanks. If the device is to be installed in a liquid other than water or in
contaminated water, check the compatibility of the wetted material. The CRS456
should be used in harsh water applications, including salt water.

6.1 Appropriate Depth

The CRS451/CRS456 must be installed below the water at a fixed depth. This
depth should be chosen so that the water pressure will never exceed the
transducer’s pressure range (twice its pressure rating).

The output reading will not be correct, and the transducer can
be damaged if pressure is twice its pressure rating.

Pressure can be converted to feet of fresh water using the following simple
equation:

1 psi = 2.31 feet of water

For example, the maximum depth with a pressure range of 0 to 7.25 psig is 16.748
feet of water.

6.2 Avoiding Freezing Conditions

Expansion of water due to freezing will irreparably damage the CRS451/CRS456.
The CRS451/CRS456 can be safely deployed in freezing conditions if the sensor
is placed below the frost line. In a lake or channel of moving water, often the
sensor can be placed deep enough to avoid freezing. In shallow conditions, where

CAUTION

User Manual

the water body is at risk of freezing solid, placing the sensor in a stilling well that
extends below the frost line will protect the sensor from freezing water.

6.3 Dislodge Bubbles

While submersing the CSR451/CRS456, air bubbles may become trapped inside
the nose cone, causing small, offset errors until the bubbles dissolve. Dislodge
these bubbles by gently shaking the CRS451/CRS456 while under water.

Hitting the instrument against the well casing or other solid
surface could damage the CRS451/CRS456.

If the bubbles are not removed by rotation and shaking
underwater (or bleeding out the air in a closed system), the
CRS451/CRS456 reading will drift lower by the distance of
the gap as the air is slowly dissolved into the water over time.

6.4 Well Installation

Braided stainless steel cable (pn #29221-L) is used to lower the instrument to an
appropriate depth and to suspend the CRS451/CRS456 in a well.

With long drops, it may be necessary to use the weighted nose cone (option

–WN).

For surface installations the instrument’s body can be strapped with tie wraps or

tape. Campbell Scientific offers cable ties (pn #7421) to secure the cable. If
installing in a well, fasten the cable to the well head.

6.5 Other Installations

The CRS451/CRS456 can be installed in any position; however, when it leaves
the factory it is tested in the vertical position. There will be an offset error if not
installed vertically; contact Campbell Scientific for more information. Strapping
the transducer body with tie wraps or tape will not hurt it.

6.6 Battery Voltage Reading

The voltage of the lithium ion battery used in the CRS451/CRS456 will abruptly

decrease at the end of the battery’s useful life, which makes predicting remaining

battery life difficult by measuring battery voltage alone. Knowing the energy
consumption of the CRS451/CRS456 while in operation, HydroSci displays a
predicted remaining battery life by combining an estimate of the energy consumed
based on the totalized measurements since new and direct battery measurements.
For this reason, if the battery is removed from the CRS451/CRS456 anytime
during deployment and then replaced, HydroSci will assume a fresh battery was
added to the device and the estimated remaining battery life will be overstated.

For similar reasons, if the operating system is upgraded or sent to the
CRS451/CRS456, the estimated remaining battery life will also be exaggerated by
HydroSci.

9. Once the configuration is complete, it must be copied to the CRS451 before it
will take effect. Click on Apply Configuration to CRS45X to start this
process.

Before sending the configuration file to the CRS45X, HydroSci may provide a
warning that your start and stop times may need adjusting. If the Start Time is in
the past, the CRS45X will immediately begin logging data but any offset you may
have applied will not be effective. Also, if the Stop Time is in the past, no data
will be logged.

Save data if you have not already done so. Archived data is purged from the
CRS45X when a new configuration file is copied so you will want to collect any
data before sending the configuration file.

This option allows you to save the configuration file for future reference or for
easy use in other similarly deployed sensors.

The CRS451 is calibrated to pressure units in psi. Table B-1 contains the
conversion factors used to convert psi to depth of water.

7.4 Compensating Measurements for Barometric Pressure

The CRS45X pressure transducer is unvented; therefore it is monitoring sealed
gauge pressure and should be corrected for barometric pressure.

User Manual

15

7.4.1 Using an Additional CRS45X

One simple way to complete this correction is to deploy an additional CRS45X as
a reference sensor. For this method, in the Select Field Application window,
choose Barometer Pressure Reference (see Section Error! Reference source not
found., Configure CRS45X for Measurements).

7.4.2 Using a Barometer

The barometric pressure data from a nearby Campbell Scientific weather station or
other Campbell Scientific monitoring platform also can be used to compensate for
barometric pressure. The Data tab is used to process and merge the data file from
the test sensor with the data file from the barometric reference sensor. The
procedure for doing this follows:

1. Press the browse button next to the Collected Data File field to browse to the

data files retrieved from the CRS45X.

Appendix A. Calibration Certificate

Each CRS451/CRS456 has been calibrated to meet printed accuracy specification
at multiple temperature and pressure ranges. If additional verification is required,
a Calibration Certificate can be purchased for each CRS451/CRS456 Water-Level
Recording Sensor.

The Instrument Data Report provides a list of the pressure and temperature at
which the sensor was tested.

Pressure [kPa] is the pressure applied (listed in kilopascals) to the sensor.
Temperature [°C] is the temperature inside the test chamber at the time of

testing. Pressure After [kPa] represents the resulting measurement output by the
CRS451/CRS456 at the given pressure and temperature. Finally, Deviation After
[%F.S.] provides the difference between the actual pressure applied to the sensor
and the pressure measurement output by the sensor. This value is listed as a
percentage of the full scale range of the sensor.

When a CRS451/CRS456 is returned to Campbell Scientific for calibration, the
sensor will be returned with an Instrument Data Report. This report will include
values in the Pressure Before [kPa] column. These values represent the
measured pressure the sensor returns at the specified pressure and temperature,
BEFORE calibration.
