Multi-Water Sampler ( Rosette)

Multi Water Sampler MWS Kombined Online/ Offline Version

6-12-24 bottles arrays with Quick Change Racks for simple mounting of watersamplers without changing the closing lines. The sturdy array fabricated of stainless steel has space for Plastic Water Samplers and Free Flow Samplers with capacities from 1.7 to 10 litres to collect water samples in different depth steps during one operation.
It is equipped with a motor-driven release device with an integrated Depth Meter ( measuring range according to customer ´ s requirements) - the water samplers are closed in the succession of their mounting to the array ( i.e. No. 1, 2, 3, ... 10, 11 and 12) . Extenal battery pack to allow changing of batteries without opening the electronic housing

Online use
The water samplers are actuated via push-button control by the deck unit or a Personal Computer using OceanLab software requires a single conductor cable. Data sampling rate: One dataset per second.

Offline use
Without single conductor cable closing depth of the samplers will be preprogrammed directly - time/ depth depending - using a PC or Laptop via OceanLab 3 Software and stored in the underwaterunit. No additional Auto Fire Module AFM ( as required on a SeaBird Carousel) necessary. After deploying the rosette data will be read out together with sensor data ( if sensors are mounted) .

Sensors ( max. 4 mounted in the bottom) for temperature/ conductivity and other parameter could be integrated into the motor unit. The state-of-the-art electronics, optimized in power consuption, are designed for ambient temperatures from -4° C up to + 85° C.
