The SBE9/11+ system does not have the capability to support any instrumentation data or signals via its sea cable that are not directly connected to the SBE9+ CTD and associated carousels. There is a hardware upgrade on the 9/11+ system that provides a serial RS-232...
Sea-bird Scientific no longer directly sells and ships Triton-X. Since January 4th,2021 Triton-X has been banned in the EU due to a key ingredient being a known endocrine disrupter. TERGITOL is a non-ionic surfactant which can be used as a substitute for Triton-X. It...
Our endurance is limited by the battery power and instrument configuration. We have demonstrated a 30 day endurance in testing offshore Newport, OR.
The Thetis profiling speeds are user configurable through the Sea-Bird Scientific Profiler Host software, and can be altered during any telemetry session during a deployment. The user can select profiling speeds ranging from 2 to 35 cm/sec.
The most common telemetry system utilized is a FreeWave radio system. Transmission times for the science data are typically 20-30 seconds through the FreeWave modem when the receiver is within 3 km of the profiler.Other telemetry systems include a broadband...
This is a safety feature of the instrument, whereby the lamp is turned off when its temperature reaches 35°C (95°F) to prevent damage from overheating. The SUNA continues to output dark frames while monitoring the temperature, and will restart the lamp once it has...
In oceanographic research, accuracy isn’t just a technical goal - it’s a foundational requirement. Whether studying climate dynamics, monitoring marine ecosystems, or conducting deep-sea exploration, the accuracy of your measurements directly impacts the reliability...
We're Doing More to Keep You in the Water - Now at Lower Prices At Sea-Bird Scientific, we understand that access to high-quality data is essential for understanding and protecting aquatic ecosystems. We’ve heard from researchers, program managers, and field...
You Needed it Faster. Now We Can Deliver. We know long lead times have been a barrier. That's why we’ve streamlined and optimized our production process to prioritize the instruments you rely on most - the SBE 37 MicroCAT and the SBE 39plus. For a limited time, we're...
