Underwater Sensor Solutions

The simple, flexible and compact AquapHOx underwater sensor systems include stand-alone loggers with internal data storage for long-term deployment and transmitters which offer fast sampling and easy integration into existing set-ups with analog outputs.

Both loggers and transmitters are available in titanium housing for deep-sea deployments (down to 4000m) and in POM housing for shallow water monitoring (down to 100m). These devices are compatible with different oxygen, pH and temperature sensor formats.

All AquapHOx devices are ideally suited for measurements in a variety of marine monitoring applications, including:

  • Ocean and Coastal Habitats
  • Deep Sea Research
  • Open Ocean Research
  • Water Column Profiling
  • Sediment Profiling
  • Oxygen Minimum Zones
  • Aquaculture
  • In-Situ Incubations, etc.
