SBE - Model 16plus-IM V2 SeaCAT CT(D) -High-Accuracy Conductivity and Temperature Recorder
The SBE 16plus-IM V2 SeaCAT is a high-accuracy conductivity and temperature (pressure optional) recorder with Inductive Modem (IM) interface designed for long-duration deployments on moorings. It supports numerous auxiliary sensors (dissolved oxygen, turbidity, fluorescence, PAR, etc.) with six A/D channels and one RS-232 data channel. The 16plus-IM V2 has internal batteries and memory. Data is recorded in memory and can also be output in real-time in engineering units or raw HEX. Battery endurance varies, depending on the sampling scheme; nine alkaline D-cells provide power for 290,000 samples of C and T.

- Inductive Modem (IM) system provides reliable, low-cost, real-time data transmission for up to 100 IM-enabled instruments using plastic-coated wire rope (typically 3x19 galvanized steel) as both transmission line and mooring tension member. IM instruments clamp anywhere along the mooring, which is easily reconfigured by sliding and re-clamping instruments on the cable. In a typical mooring, an Inductive Modem Module (IMM) in the buoy communicates with IM instruments and interfaces to a computer/data logger (not supplied by Sea-Bird) via RS-232. The data logger is programmed to poll each IM instrument for data, and sends the data to a satellite link, cell phone, etc.
