The table below indicates the minimum recommended buoy ballast weights for each CB-Series data buoy, assuming no additional topside weight and calm environmental conditions. Included instrument cages mounted to the buoy frame helps stabilize the buoy and provides a deeper location for mounting additional weight. The small model instrument cage (10 lbs.) is included with […]
The following buoy storage requirements are required when storing a CB-Series data buoy with an X2-CB data logger: Storage Requirements Store the buoy in a dry environment that is kept above freezing. A climate-controlled location may be necessary. Extremely cold temperatures can negatively impact the performance of the batteries. Cold or excessively fluctuating storage temperatures […]
Use a DC volt/multimeter to verify the battery voltage of a CB-Series data buoy on the UW-6 (6-pin) SOLAR port on the data well top plate. This method works for both user-supplied battery systems with CB-PTL pass-through lid and NexSens-supplied CB-A01 and CB-A05 SLA battery systems. Measure the voltage between pins 3 (V+) and 4 […]
Offshore buoy monitoring systems, the advanced instruments they carry, and the data they provide are used in a broad range of applications. Some of these include scientific research, marine and weather forecasting and more.
These data buoys enable quick, easy deployment yet remain stable and keep sending data, no matter the surrounding conditions.
A water quality monitoring buoy with radio telemetry transmits data from Upper Lyman lake to the geology laboratory at Carleton College.
The Racine Hydroelectric Plant continually monitors dissolved oxygen in the Ohio River to ensure levels do not fall out of regulation.
To meet Clean Water Act goals and ensure the effectiveness of its stormwater pollution prevention plan, GOAA developed a monitoring program.
An automated water monitoring system was installed at Old Woman Creek Nature Preserve to help inform preservation efforts.
