Valeport - Model miniCT Probe -Conductivity and Temperature Sensor
The miniCT probe is Valeport latest direct reading Conductivity and Temperature sensor, featuring digital sampling techniques for improved performance, and high strength construction methods to ensure consistent performance and stability under extreme pressure. 500m acetal and 6000m titanium versions available, both with RS232 or addressable RS485 data outputs as standard.
Sensors
Valeport’s new digital inductive conductivity sensor boasts several design features that allow it to perform to specification even under the harshest of environments.
Specially selected materials maintain dimensional stability to 6000m water depth, and the unique digital sampling system means that the sensor not only uses very little power, but also that the measurements are totally unaffected by environmental temperature. The miniCT also features a robust, titanium housed PRT temperature sensor.
