C6 Multi-Sensor Platform - Press Releases

C6 Multi-Sensor Platform now has Digital Data Output

Sunnyvale, CA; December 12, 2008: 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 the digital data output allows for easy integration with existing water monitoring systems such as CTDs, dataloggers, vessels of opportunity and buoys.

Deployable up to a depth of 600 meters, C6 booster cables allow RS232 communication at depths greater than 5 meters.

Customers who already own a C6 can download a free software upgrade.

New C6 Multi-Sensor Platform that integrates up to six Cyclops-7 optical sensors

Sunnyvale, CA; September 18, 2006: Turner Designs announces the new submersible C6 Multi-Sensor Platform designed for extended or short-term deployments. Each C6 comes with a factory installed depth and temperature sensor at a depth rating of 600 meters. The C6 Windows based user interface allows for intuitive calibration, data logging, and data management.

The submersible battery pack and mechanical wiper allows for extended deployments longer than 85 days at 15-minute sampling intervals. Users can field install Cyclops-7 fluorescence sensors into the C6 Multi-Sensor Platform for a variety of applications such as in vivo Chlorophyll a, freshwater blue green algae (phycocyanin), marine blue green algae (phycoerythrin), rhodamine WT dye, fluorescein dye, as well as turbidity. The Cyclops-7 ultraviolet CDOM sensor will be available soon.
