Instrument: Sea-Bird SBE 49 FastCAT CTD Sensor

Acronym: SBE-49

External Identifier: skos:exactMatch: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L22/current/TOOL0827/

Description

The SBE 49 FastCAT is a CTD sensor for use in autonomous platforms. It contains a SBE 3P temperature sensor, a SBE 4C conductivity sensor and a strain-gauge pressure sensor as standard. It can operate in autonomus (16 Hz per sec) or polled mode (transmits each sample). The sensor is depth-rated to 350 m (plastic housing) or 7000 m (titanium housing). Accuracy: +/- 0.002 deg C (temperature), +/- 0.0003 S/m (conductivity), 0.1% of full scale range (pressure).
