The Pontoon Vertical Profiling System offers user-programmable sample intervals, redundant error recovery logic that recovers automatically, and is compatible with all YSI EXO and 6-Series sondes equipped with depth. The profiler systems provide reliable, fully automated data collection. The profiling systems also come with rugged, non-corrosive mechanical winch and drive mechanisms, Profile Wizard software for easy set-up and deployment, Profile data analysis and export software, user-selectable sample intervals, optional meteorological package, and several wireless data transmission options.
Buoy-Based Configurations Feature:
- Submersible, water-tight enclosure for control electronics
- An optional depth sounder that automatically compensates for varying water levels from tides, reservoir levels, etc.
- Uses top and bottom as reference points for software-controlled positioning
- Profiles up and down and parks at any depth
- Redundant error recovery logic detects unexpected activity and recovers automatically
If you're interested in additional profiling systems, we also offer fixed profilers.
Applications Include:
- Drinking Water Reservoirs: water quality, homeland security
- Research: upwelling events, open water
- General Monitoring: lakes, rivers, estuaries, bays
Available Options:
- SCADA Interface - Allows for data collection from a YSI Vertical Profiler via direct connection or telemetry to a customer's PLC
