ISUS Nitrate Sensor Data Sheet

ISUS Chemical free Nitrate system:

Satlantic’s ISUS nitrate sensor is a real time, chemical free system designed to overcome the traditional challenges associated with nitrate analysis in aquatic environments.  ISUS provides easy, accurate, and continuous nitrate concentration measurements that are essential to the study of physical, chemical, and biological processes in the water.

 We have just released two new software packages to help you collect even more accurate nitrate data with your ISUS sensor.  The first program is called ISUSCal and will enable you to update the calibration file in the field. This will allow you to eliminate any bias related to instrument drift that might have occurred over time without sending the sensor back to the shop.  The second program we have developed, called ISUSPro, allows you to plot previously logged data graphically for thorough quality checks. ISUSPro also lets you reprocess raw files with new calibration files (e.g. with updated cal files produced with ISUSCal), wavelength ranges and baseline corrections.

The MBARI-ISUS was developed by Dr. Kenneth Johnson  and Mr. Luke Coletti of the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI).  Satlantic was chosen by MBARI to  manufacture and distribute this novel  sensor. Click here to download a copy of the paper.

FIRe Fluorometer Data Sheet

FIRe (Fluorescence Induction and Relaxation) system:

The Satlantic FIRe (Fluorescence Induction and Relaxation) System is the latest advance in bio-optical technology to measure variable fluorescence in photosynthetic organisms.

Developed in collaboration with Dr. Maxim Gorbunov and Dr. Paul Falkowski from Rutgers University, the system is based on 15 years experience in basic and applied research and development in photosynthesis and oceanography.

 

(HyperOCR) Data Sheet

Hyper Ocean Colour Radiometer (HyperOCR):

The new HyperOCR sensors feature enhanced performance specificaitons such as increased sensitivity and resolution, providing significant advantages for key applications such as above-water and profiling radiometry.  The HyperOCR sensors are fully digital optical packages,  providing 133 channels of optical data with wavelengths ranging from 350 to 800 nm.  

OCR-507 Data Sheet

OCR-507 Irradiance Sensor:

The OCR-500 micro-sensor series is a fully digital optical sensor package that combines precision optics and high performance microelectronics. Satlantic designed this sensor series for applications where performance, size and power are key constraints. The OCR-507I can be mounted on real-time profilers, moored and autonomous deepwater buoys, autonomous underwater vehicles as well as on ships and airplanes for above-water applications.

504-UV Data Sheet

504-UV  Ultra Violet Sensor:

Our digital ultraviolet sensor measures UV-A and UV-B irradiance and radiance in four spectral channels centered at 305 nm, 325nm, 340 nm, and 380 nm. As with all of our sensors, the 504 UV transmit data via RS-232 or RS-485 and can also operate on Satlantic's multi-sensor network (SATNet).

BioShutter II Data Sheet

BioShutter II:

The Bioshutter II is an autonomous underwater shutter attachment designed for use with Satlantic optical instruments. The primary purpose of the shutter is to prevent marine biofouling of the sensor optics in moored, time-series applications. Copper, and copper-based alloys, have long been known to have good resistance against bio fouling and have been used in a diverse variety of commercial applications. Scientists working at the University of California Santa Barbara Ocean Physics Lab under the auspices of the National Ocean Partnership Programs’ (NOPP) Ocean-Systems for Chemical, Optical, and Physical Experiments (O-SCOPE) project developed an underwater shutter device for use with instruments such as Satlantic’s OCR-500 and HyperOCR series instruments. The Satlantic Bioshutter II device builds upon the success of this instrument by combining an innovative copper shutter and an input power controlled motor drive assembly to ensure robust operation in harsh marine environments.

Profiler II Data Sheet

Optical In Water Profiler:

The Profiler II offers researchers the unique opportunity to use this system as a free fall profiling device or in conjunction with a detachable float for near-surface measurements (HyperTSRB). The Profiler II is designed to interchange Satlantic’s hyperspectral or multispectral optical sensors making this system the most versatile platform for measuring the apparent optical properties of the ocean. 

The Profiler II system comes complete with a moulded flotation collar that is easily mounted to the profiling frame for real time, near-surface measurements. Upwelling radiance and irradiance measurements can be collected as close as 5 cm from the sea surface.

The optional integration of Wet Labs ECO series sensors offers a new combination for concurrent determination of chlorophyll fluorescence and optical backscattering in either profiling or surface mode.

STOR-X:

Understanding the need for low cost, compact size and minimal power requirements, the Stor-X is ideal for remote field  applications. The Stor-X system provides scheduled data acquisition and logging for Satlantic’s 500 series and hyperspectral in-air and in-water radiometers. This data logger contains a controller with multiple serial ports for data  acquisition along with a 256 MB CompactFlash disk to store the data. It acquires and logs data according to the researcher's specified sampling schedule.

The Stor-X can log data for months at a time, limiting servicing and reducing costly field trips without the threat of losing valuable data. 

The world of aquatic science is changing. Long term data collection systems are enhancing individual research. At the same time, community efforts to understand global systems are developing. Now, more than ever, our modeling and observational methods must change accordingly. Integrated observing systems that address the diverse needs of both the scientific, regulatory and industrial aquatic community will be essential tools in the future.

We have worked alongside some of the world's leading institutes to develop products such as the chemical-free nitrate sensor - MBARI-ISUS and the Water Quality Monitor and have now teamed with leading developers such as WET Labs Inc. to expand our capabilities and continue to provide superior products and customer support.

In response to the unique requirements of water quality managers, WETSAT , WET Labs and Satlantic operate as a single, unified team to meet your needs. Combined, we provide the best solutions for your unique challenges. With the strength of our three-company team, you can be sure of a comprehensive and coordinated approach.
