Depth Sensors



Click Here for datasheet

Paroscientific depth transducers are used in a wide variety of applications from towed arrays and ROVs to tectonic research and tsunami detection. The nano-resolution sensors can detect a change in water level of as little as 0.1 mm from a depth of 7 km.

The unique anti-fouling port on the Paroscientific Series 8000 depth transducers ensures high accuracy over long periods of operation.

Both intelligent and frequency models are available in all ranges. Housings are either PVC, Acetal, or Stainless Steel depending on pressure range.

Available Ranges: 0-10 through 0-7,000 meters of water absolute, 0-10 through 0-140 meters of water gauge
Operating Ranges: -2 through 40°C
Accuracy: 0.01% FS or better
Achievable Resolution: 0.000001% FS (10 ppb) or better

NIST-Traceable calibration certificates
Power consumption: 0.2W for intelligent transmitters, 0.03W for frequency transducers

Meteorological Systems

MET4(A)


Click Here for datasheet

Paroscientific manufactures a precision weather station called the MET4. This Broadband Meteorological Measurement System takes extremely accurate pressure, temperature, and humidity readings and logs over 200,000 data points for later retrieval.

The MET4 makes use of a proprietary pressure port engineered to reduce the dynamic effects of wind on the barometric readings.

The MET4A is a fan-aspirated model which provides greater accuracy and stability of the temperature and humidity readings over time.

Barometric Range: 50 to 110 kPa
Pressure Accuracy: 8 Pa or better
Temperature Accuracy: Met4 ±0.5°C, Met4A ±0.1°C or better
Relative Humidity Accuracy: ±2% at 25°C
Achievable Pressure Resolution: 10 ppb or better
