Underwater technology manufacturer Sonardyne International Ltd has integrated a CONTROS HydroC dissolved CO2 sensor from -4H-JENA engineering into its Origin 600 ADCP (Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler), unlocking new capabilities for marine research into ocean acidification.
The combined solution enables precise, real-time monitoring of dissolved carbon dioxide levels alongside detailed current profiling, providing insights into the impacts of rising CO2 concentrations on marine ecosystems and biodiversity.
The CONTROS HydroC dissolved CO2 sensor from -4H-JENA engineering is designed specifically for accurate and reliable measurement of dissolved carbon dioxide in marine environments. Such sensors are essential tools for understanding ocean acidification. The HydroC sensor integrates with Sonardyne’s Origin 600 through either direct connection to the ADCP’s external sensor port or via the versatile Origin E-Mux multiplexer, which supports up to four external sensors simultaneously and extends power supply capability for longer deployments.
