-4H- - Self Cleaning Monitoring Box (SMB)
The combination of two SMB measuring continuously physical parameters of surface water leads to high efficiency and accuracy of data. The boxed flow-through sensor system works in master-slave mode with one substituting the other during automated cleaning cycles.
This redundant system ensures steady measurements without any disturbances of bio-fouling and it additionally gives the opportunity for continuous high quality management for accurately validated data. The cyclone-shaped bin for sensors also facilitates an effective automatic cleaning. Because of its compact construction transporting and handling of the -4H-SMB is very easy. Equipped with commonly used interfaces the -4H-SMB enables communication with every (research) vessel.
This System is a joint development with the Leibniz-Institut für Ostseeforschung Warnemünde (IOW).
