Hailing 2000 Profiling Float

Self-sinking/rising profiling float for sub-surface temperature, salinity and depth profiling to 2000 dbar, with ≥2 years life.

Description

Hailing 2000 is a self-sinking and rising profiling float for measuring sub-surface ocean temperature, salinity and depth profiles. A hydraulic system changes its buoyancy so that it can sink, rise or hold at a constant depth, and data is returned via satellite positioning and transmission.

Key features

  • Depth rating 0-2000 dbar
  • Weight in air up to 35 kg
  • At least 100 measurement cycles and a life of at least 2 years
  • Profile interval settable from 10 h to 240 h; at least 100 layers per profile; sampling interval 1-100 m
  • CTD standard (domestic or imported) with optional environmental and acoustic sensors
  • Communication via BeiDou and radio

Applications

Ocean temperature and salinity profiling for oceanographic observation.
