Smart-X - New Standard In Real Time Instruments Brochure

The New Standard in Real Time Instruments Smart•Xconductivity / sound velocity / pressure / temperatureThe Smart•X is a real-time instrument that allows you to change the instrument’s sensor load, in-the-field and on-demand. With the Smart•X, your SVP can become a CTD; Shallow pressure sensors can be swapped for deep; and temperature range can be extended or tightened, as needed. One single real-time instrument meets multiple deployment requirements.Like all other X•Series instruments, the Smart•X uses XchangeTM field-swappable sensors, now available for Conductivity, Sound Velocity, Temperature, and Pressure. This means that sensor-heads can be shared with other instruments, regardless of instrument size or type. Total flexibility – of instrument model, of sensor type, and of sensor range – ensure that the right instrument is always available.Field-swappable sensors also streamline recalibration: instead of sending the entire instrument back to a recalibration centre, calibrated sensor-heads can be sent to the instrument. Changing sensors is easy: simply unscrew one sensor-head and replace it with another. The Smart•X offers high-speed 25Hz sampling, ensuring excellent data resolution. Designed for AUV or ROV work, the Smart•X equipped with a sound velocity sensor is also appropriate for sea surface sound velocity measurement for multi-beam systems. The instrument is available in 1 or 3 sensor configurations; form factor and functionality vary slightly between the two.C•XchangeTM SV•XchangeTM P•XchangeTM T•XchangeTM2071 Malaview Avenue Sidney, British Columbia Canada, V8L 5X6T: +1-250-656-0771T: +1-800-663-8721 (NA)F: +1-250-665-3655E: sales@AMLoceanographic.com W: www.AMLoceanographic.comSmart•XKey Benefits:Greater return on investment: Each • instrument can multi-task as CTD or SVTP, at multiple pressure ranges, assuring greater usage. Right instrument always ready: • Calibrated sensors are shared amongst all X•Series instruments, ensuring that the right instrument is always field-ready. Reduced downtime: Recalibrated • sensors sent to the instrument means the instrument never leaves the field for recalibration. Reduction in transport and logistics • costs: Instruments can be recalibrated without return to a calibration centre. Greater system redundancy: Mobility • of sensor-heads and modularity of instruments minimizes the risk of downtime on the vessel. Streamlined management: Less • time spent administering instrument recalibration and certification requirements.Xchange™ and X•Series: Each Xchange™ sensor-head includes its own embedded calibration• Sensors exchange easily without use of speciality tools• Swap any sensor with another sensor of its own kind, regardless of range• Exchange conductivity with sound velocity, regardless of range• Exchange pressure with temperature, regardless of range• Electrical:Up to 25 scans per second• Factory Set RS232 or RS485• Externally Powered 8-26 VDC• Mechanical: Housing: Delrin to 500 m or Titanium to 10,000 m • Size: Single Sensor Configuration: 46 mm (1.8”) diameter x 308 mm • (12.2”) OAL (same form fit as earlier versions of Smart instruments Multi- Sensor Configuration: Sensor Cage 70 mm (2.75”) diameter, Body 46 mm (1.8”) diameter, OAL 420 mm (16.5”).Connectors: Micro 6, Female • Environmental Storage: -40oC to 60oC • Environmental Usage: -20oC to 45oC• Sampling Modes:User configurable (by time, by pressure, by sound speed)• Range0 to 70 mS/cm1375 to 1625 m/sUp to 6000 dBar-2 to 32oC0 to 42 psu990 to 1230kg/m3Accuracy+/-0.01mS/cm+/-0.025 m/s+/-0.05%FS+/-0.005oC+/-0.01psu+/- 0.027kg/m3Response25ms at 1m/s flow47 microseconds10 milliseconds100 millsecondsResolution0.001mS/cm0.001 m/s0.02%FS0.001oC0.001psu0.001kg/m3ParameterC•XchangeTM SV•XchangeTMP•XchangeTMT•XchangeTMSalinity (Calculated)*Density (Calculated)*Precision+/-0.003mS/cm+/-0.006 m/s +/-0.03%FS+/-0.003oC+/-0.06psuXchangeTMX•Series instruments do not come with sensor-heads; please order them separately.Calculated parameters are based on C•XchangeTM, T•XchangeTM and P•XchangeTM sensor-heads.
