We're happy to announce that we will continue to offer free ground shipping on all orders >$500 within the continental US through 2012.

We're excited to introduce a UV Secondary Solid Standard for our Cyclops-7 Submersible Fluorometers.  Instrumentation configured for UV analyses typically rely on the use of liquid standards, such as Quinine Sulfate, for ensuring instrument integrity.  However, transporting and preparing liquid standards can be tedious and sometimes hazardous.  The UV Secondary Solid Standard is compact, light ...

Turner Designs is excited to introduce a 6000 meter version of our very popular Cyclops-7 Submersible Fluorometer. The Cyclops-6K is presently available for Chlorophyll, Crude Oil, and CDOM detection with more optical configurations available soon. The reinforced Titanium housing and specialized optical head allow the Cyclops-6K to reach abyssal depths.  Offering the same low power requirements, ...

Turner Designs now offers a corrosion-resistant plastic housing for the C-7 Submersible Fluorometer. The plastic housing is ideal for long term deployments or environments that may degrade or corrode stainless steel sensors. The new plastic body offers the best option in corrosion-resistant material without incurring the higher costs of titanium housings. The plastic C-7 is available with either s ...

Turner Designs now offers Deep UV Optical sensors for detection of Refined Fuels and Oils. Recent developments in LED technology allow for excitation wavelengths down to 260nm. Using BTEX as the standard, the sensors are able to detect as low as 0.1ppm and have a dynamic range of 0 -2500 ppm. Both the Cyclops-7 and C3 Submersible Fluorometers can be purchased with Deep UV optics offering some of t ...

Sanibel Sea School in Florida is using the Turner Designs Cyclops-7 Submersible Fluorometer configured with crude oil optics and partnered with the DataBank Handheld Datalogger to check for oil in local waters.  

Turner Designs is providing in situ and Laboratory Fluorometers specifically configured to detect Crude Oil for tracking the Gulf Oil spill.   Equipment being deployed includes the C3 Submersible Fluorometer, as specified in the USCG SMART protocol; the Cyclops-7 Submersible Crude Oil sensor with the DataBank, our handheld datalogger; and the Trilogy Laboratory Fluorometer for discrete ...

Turner Designs announces a new low-wavelength Cyclops-7 Submersible Fluorometer for detection of Refined Oils and Fuels.  Recent developments in LED technology allow for excitation wavelengths down to 260nm. These new Deep UV LEDs  enable detection of a broad range of refined oils and fuels.  Using BTEX as the standard, the C7 is able to detect as low as 0.1ppm over a dynamic range >250ppm. ...

Turner Designs now offers the DataBank, a universal Handheld Datalogger that can be used with our Cyclops-7 Submersible Sensors.  Up to 9,999 records and 16 can be stored and downloaded to a PC.  The DataBank has internal memory enabling unattended datalogging at intervals from 1 second to 4 days. Sensor power is provided directly from the DataBank, eliminating the need to connect to external ba ...

The submersible C6 Multi-Sensor Platform, introduced in 2006, integrates up to six field-interchangeable Cyclops-7 fluorometers and/or turbidity sensors. And now the C6 is available with digital data output for integration with third party platforms. The C-Soft Windows-based user interface allows for intuitive calibration, data logging, and data management. And ...
