New Submersible Sensor Package Enables up to 6 Integrated Sensors

Turner Designs (USA) now offers a C6P Submersible Sensor package enabling up to six sensors in a corrosion resistant, highly durable, Delrin plastic housing able to withstand even the harshest of environments. Modeled after the popular C3, the C6P can be configured with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 optical sensors ranging from deep UV to IR. An antifouling copper plate and a mechanical wiper are available as options to minimise bio-fouling on and around the sensors. Each C6P comes with a factory installed temperature sensor; factory-installed depth sensors are available. A large internal data storage capacity, low power requirements, and a high capacity external submersible lithium ion battery allow for long-term deployments. Specialised firmware is available when integrating the C6P with continuous sampling systems that require 24/7 data collection via data streaming. Standard optical kits are available for detecting: in vivo Chlorophyll (blue or red), Crude Oil, Refined Fuels, CDOM/FDOM (dissolved organic material), Blue/Green Algae, Fluorescein Dye, Rhodamine Dye, PTSA Dye, Optical Brighteners, Tryptophan, and Turbidity. The C6P can also be configured with custom optics for specific applications. The C6P is rated to a depth of 600m.
