YSI Launches New Marine Division at Ocean Business 2011

Combining expertise from the company’s water quality, bathymetry and integrated systems activities, YSI Hydrodata (UK) will launch a new Marine Division at this year’s Ocean Business event.

Offering monitoring solutions from portable instruments and AUVs to complete networked ocean buoys, the new division will build on YSI and SonTek’s massive installed base of marine instruments and systems to provide customers with both off-the-shelf and bespoke solutions to marine monitoring requirements.

Taking place at the National Oceanography Centre in Southampton (April 5-7), the event will provide an ideal opportunity for visitors to see the latest water monitoring instrumentation such as new sensors, the Castaway CTD and the EcoMapper, an autonomous underwater vehicle.

In addition to the exhibition, YSI Hydrodata will also run three demonstrations:

1. ’Castaway CTD’ profiling demonstration at the dockside area; Tuesday, April 5, 2pm.

2. ’Monitoring coastal water quality’ demonstration at the dockside area; Wednesday, April 6th, 4.30pm.

3. ’Multiparameter monitoring system with integrated crude oil, refined oil and CDOM sensors’ in the Ray Beverton (Level 4) room 044/11; Thursday, April 7th, 1.30pm.
