CONTROS Systems & Solutions GmbH, Kiel, Germany, has recently introduced an upgraded version of the optical based underwater CO² sensor, “HydroC™”, following extensive proving trials and scientific validation. The CONTROS HydroC™ sensor was evaluated for its easy handling and very positive quality characteristics in the ACT performance statements, which were announced by the organizers two weeks ago (http://www.act-us.info).
 

Figure 1: HydroC™ Sensor with integrated pump and special head.The latest version of the CONTROS HydroC™ sensor includes the external SBE-5T pump with a special designed flow head. Using this pump the CO2 sensors response time has been significantly decreased to approx. 1 minute (see Figure 2), which makes it the fastest on the market. To achieve this effect several flow heads were designed with the aid of 3D CAD programs, where also flow simulations were done, afterwards the designs were put to test in order to get the actual performance of each design. These features make the HydroC™ the smallest, lightest and fastest deep sea CO2 sensor system available on the market.
