Cordell Bank Moored Instruments - Seawater Temperature, Conductivity & Salinity
Instrument Type: Sea-Bird Electronics SBE 37SIP MicroCAT
Description: The SBE 37-SIP MicroCAT is a high-accuracy conductivity and temperature monitor with Serial Interface and integral Pump. The MicroCAT uses a unique internal-field conductivity cell and an aged and pressure-protected thermistor that has a long history of exceptional accuracy and stability. Salinity values are calculated from the 1978 Practical Salinity Scale Equations. The integral pump typically runs for 0.5 seconds each time the MicroCAT samples.
