Overview
The Gedotech Geosub Controller is designed specifically for use with Geotech's Geosub 2 Stainless Steel Pump. It provides a safe, conditioned variable DC output power from an AC power source. Built-in sensing gives the operator accurate and precise control over the pump during sampling events.
Battery Life
An average 1000-watt gasoline generator with 1 gallon of gasoline will operate the Geosub Controller and Geotech's sampling pump at full power for 18 hours continuously. Generally, much longer run times can be expected as the controller is used to reduce water flow for low-flow sampling.
Design
An easy-to-use programmable user interface with a bright display offers precise control over flow rates during groundwater sampling events. Site-specific settings and conditions can easily be stored and recalled for more efficient, repeatable sampling events. Rugged construction and easy-to-connect cables make setup and portability a breeze. In addition, the controller includes a user-set dry run protection feature.
Benefits
- Converts AC Voltage to variable up to 300-watt DC voltage output
- Short circuit protection for your safety
- Heavy duty rated power cable for years of service
- 2-line x 16-character wide temperature range alpha-numeric digital display
- Push button Up/Down control
- Internal processor saves individual well parameters
- Optional DC to AC Inverter can be connected to a vehicle battery

Stone Lab: Cyanobacteria Monitoring in Ohio Lakes
Microcystin, one of several toxins produced by the cyanobacteria that form harmful algal blooms (HABs), has become a popular topic of lake research as the human health impacts of HABs become better understood. Stone Lab is one of the leading groups in algal bloom research on Lake Erie and other lakes in Ohio. 
 
For more than 100 years, Stone Lab has conducted biology research and provided science education and outreach to the region. Over the years, thousands of individuals of varying ages have learned from the resources Stone Lab provides. 
 
Stone Lab’s Research Coordinator and Senior Researcher, Justin Chaffin, learned of Stone Lab while an undergraduate student at Bowling Green State University Fireland Campus.

Lake Erie is well known for its abundant recreational fishing. Anglers come from across the country to try their luck at the “walleye capital of the world” and search for other freshwater species, such as bass, perch, and steelhead trout. 
 
 As one of the world’s largest freshwater fisheries, much effort is made behind the scenes to maintain fishing opportunities for visitors to enjoy year after year, efforts that often go unnoticed by the public. 
 
 One of the lake's most important economic and tourism centers is the city of Sandusky, home to the Sandusky Fisheries Research Station . As part of the Ohio Division of Wildlife, the unit serves as a base for assessing fish populations and managing harvest with partner agencies from around Lake Erie.
Read MoreHigh Definition Stream Surveys: Informed Management in Local Waterways
When it comes to environmental monitoring, new stream survey methodologies have revealed a great deal about water quality and streambed conditions over time. Such information can be particularly important in leading restoration initiatives and prioritizing management decisions. 
 
Historically, stream surveys have been conducted at a single point along the stream, with data then extrapolated for miles up and downstream. However, Brett Connell, Hydrologist and Director of Sales at Trutta Environmental Solutions, started developing a more intensive stream survey format in his master's program in 2010 at the University of Tennessee.
