The OceanPack™ 19” rack is a classic “Underway” or “FerryBox” autonomous measuring system. The OceanPack™ includes everything to run unattended and measure water parameters: power supply, data logger, water system. Space to include optional sensors or automatic cleaning. The size depends on the build-in options such as special sensors or automatic cleaning.

The OceanPack Nutrient Rack is a complete laboratory for wet chemical nutrient measurements. In contrast to optical online sensors, wet chemical analyzers provide a very high resolution and a very low detection limit, as is required for scientific measurements in the open sea / blue water. It includes an automatic, backwashable water filter, the nutrient analyzers, a refrigerator for the reagents, a supply of distilled or RO water and a waste water tank for the chemicals. The reagent supply is sufficient for at least 4 weeks with a 20-minute analysis repetition time. The wastewater is highly diluted and can usually be drained outboard. The waste water tank must be used in protected areas or in ports. The fill level of all tanks is monitored electronically, in the event of an error, messages are sent and the analysis is interrupted. The filter for the sample water is automatically backwashed regularly. 

The OceanPack™ 19” CUBE is a mobile “Underway” or “FerryBox” autonomous measuring system. The OceanPack™ CUBE includes everything to run unattended and measure water parameters: power supply, data logger, water system and space to include optional sensors. The CUBE system is based on the OceanPack classic rack, but is a mobile, lighter and smaller version. Even though the system is compact, additional sensor can be integrated. Robust against sediments or bio-fouling, just clean with tap water. Optionally, the automatic cleaning can be connected as an external additional device. Quick-connect water tube connections without the need to use tools. Efficient de-airing with our Debubbler mBubbler®. Space to install additional sensors into the Debubbler to measure true water values in one water tank.

Optional external module for OceanPack CUBE to clean the water supply automatically. Two motor-ball valves are used to run the water in a circle. Acid is used to remove fouling very efficiently. If tap water is available, another phase of cleaning with tap water is included. The cleaning can be fully configured to your needs and is suitable for mostly any sensors such as pH, pCO2 etc. Not harmful for the environment. Fully installed and pre-programmed.

The 6th generation OceanPack-RACE is a highly optimized "Underway" or "FerryBox" system especially for racing yachts. Weight, size and energy-consumption are minimized; Frame and Debubbler made of ultra-light weight and robust Carbon No user operation is needed after system power-on. The pCO2 analyzer and a Thermosalinograph (TSG, CTD) are standard sensors. The pCO2 data can optionally be referenced with standard gas(es), so that qualified data can be recorded in the SOCAT database. Complete system with data supply, data storage, power supplies and optional touch screen.
