Description
The Vertical Profiler is an intelligent, real-time water quality monitoring system (buoy) designed to deliver full water column characterisation down to depths of 200 m. It supports a wide range of water quality parameters—including temperature, conductivity, salinity/TDS, pH, ORP, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, nutrients, and algae indicators—providing a comprehensive picture of aquatic conditions. With integrated telemetry options such as cellular, Bluetooth, and serial communications, users can access live data remotely via online platforms, customise dashboards, and configure alarms to detect pollution events early.
A key feature of the Vertical Profiler is its autonomous, solar-powered operation, combining high-efficiency solar panels with high-density lithium batteries to ensure continuous monitoring with minimal maintenance. The system is rugged and field-ready, boasting IP67/68 protection, buoyancy up to 108 kg, and durable construction suitable for harsh environments. It is delivered pre-assembled and can be deployed in under 20 minutes, significantly reducing installation time and costs. Additional capabilities such as programmable ascent/descent profiling, GPS tracking, shock notifications, and multi-unit network integration enhance operational flexibility and scalability.
The benefits of the Vertical Profiler centre on ease of use, accessibility, and cost-efficiency. Its lightweight, courier-friendly design reduces freight and logistics costs, while in-house manufacturing and multiple carrier options support timely delivery. Users benefit from customisable reporting and data export tools, enabling efficient sharing and analysis of monitoring results. The option to integrate ultrasonic algae remediation systems further adds value for applications involving bloom control, making the Vertical Profiler a versatile solution for environmental monitoring programs seeking reliable, real-time insights with minimal operational overhead
