Cyclops 7F

Manufactured by Turner Designs, the Cyclops-7F is a combination Fluorometer & Turbidity sensor ideal for spot check or unattended measurements.

Cyclops-7F sensors are high performance, compact submersible fluorescence and turbidity sensors designed for integration into any platform that provides power and datalogging.

Cyclops-7F are pin-compatible with Analog C-FLUOR Submersible Probes so they are easily integrated into many of the same third-party systems that accept 0-5V signal.

• Custom Optics Available: 260-900 nm

 

Third Party Platforms

Cyclops-7F Sensors easily integrate into third-party platforms. Aqualab Scientific & Turner Designs has partnered with several integrators to provide single sensor packages, multi-probes and remote monitoring solutions for in situ sampling.  Examples include:

For longer term, or unattended deployments, Aqualab recommend the addition of a Hydro-Wiper mechanical wiper system to promote robust data capture.

FEATURES
  • Extremely small size – 5.7″ x 0.9″ s/s or Ti. 5.7″ x 1.25″ (Delrin)

Features:

  • Affordable price / excellent value
  • Built-in light scatter rejection
  • Low power consumption
  • Interfaces with DataBank™ Datalogger
  • Cyclops-7 Submersible Logger Available
  • Cyclops Explorer enables various lab applications
  • No Housing version available for integration
  • Custom optics available: 260-900 nm

Benefits:

CYCLOPS-7 can be easily added to typical multiparameter systems within existing space constraints. Measurement capabilities are not compromised by using the CYCLOPS-7 compact sensor. In CTD/AUV applications, you can choose between a smaller battery pack or longer operation on each battery charge. Measurements can be made at any frequency and interval, as determined by an external data logger. Price barrier has been significantly lowered for adding a fluorometer to existing monitoring platforms.
