PROVOR DO I: TS, DO, 2000m, Iridium

PROVOR DO I collects salinity, temperature, pressure and oxygen during its drift and ascending phases. The data is transmitted by the IRIDIUM satellite system and the float is positioned by GPS.

Main features:

 Sea-Bird and Aanderaa sensors proven metrology

 High sampling rate with Iridium up to 2000 pts

 Down to 2000 meters depth

 Easy connectivity

 Self-ballasted float
