McLane Moored Profiler
Application:
The McLane Moored Profiler (MMP) is an autonomous time-series instrument that profiles the water column by traveling along a fixed wire carrying an array of sensors. Depending on the sensors that are selected, in situ measurements can include conductivity, temperature, depth, cholorophyll-a and dissolved oxygen data.
An optional underwater inductive modem provides near real-time communication between the MMP and a surface buoy or seabed node. Profiling depth, time intervals and pressure stops are user-defined
and profiling patterns can span specific seasons or timeframes.
Features:
Body design provides easy access to sensors, electronics and the battery. Two models are available: the standard and extended version. The extended MMP provides 50% more battery capacity and is only 12.7cm longer than the standard MMP.
