Sankotsusho Product Lineup

ARVOR-L is a mid-water drifting float with a pressure resistance of 2000m. It comes standard with a CTD sensor manufactured by Sea Bird, capable of measuring water temperature, salinity, and pressure at arbitrary intervals. Various data is collected via Argos communication. Various parameters can be easily set via Bluetooth connection, and it has a self-ballasting feature, eliminating the need for buoyancy adjustment. This float has been adopted by the Japan Meteorological Agency for observations under the ARGO project. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

ARVOR-C is a coastal observation float designed to withstand pressures of up to 300 meters. It comes standard with a Sea Bird CTD sensor, capable of measuring water temperature, salinity, and pressure. Various data is collected via Iridium communication (SBD). By allowing it to settle on the seabed during descent, it becomes less affected by tidal currents, enabling long-term observations without drifting far from the deployment area. Various parameters can be easily set via Bluetooth connection, and it features a self-buoyancy function, eliminating the need for buoyancy adjustments. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

ARVOR-I is a mid-water drifting float with a pressure resistance of 2000m. It comes standard with a Sea Bird CTD sensor, capable of measuring water temperature, salinity, and pressure at any interval. Various data is collected via Iridium communication (SBD). Iridium communication is the mainstream for ocean data transmission due to its bidirectional communication capability, minimal communication delay, and the ease of executing events such as configuration changes or observation cancellations after the float is deployed, all in email format. Various parameters can be easily set via Bluetooth connection, and it has a self-ballasting feature, eliminating the need for buoyancy adjustments. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

DEEP ARVOR is a deep-sea observation float designed for a pressure of 4000 meters. It is designed for the ARGO project and comes standard with a CTD sensor manufactured by Sea Bird. In addition to water temperature, salinity, and pressure, a DO sensor (manufactured by Aanderaa) can be added, allowing for the observation of up to four parameters. Various data is collected via Iridium communication (SBD). Various parameters can be easily set via Bluetooth connection, and it has a self-ballasting function, eliminating the need for buoyancy adjustment. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

The PRVOR CTS5 is a profiling float capable of withstanding pressure up to 2000 meters and can be equipped with numerous sensors in addition to the standard CTD sensor. It can measure water temperature, salinity, pressure, dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll, backscatter, dissolved organic matter, pH, and nitrate at any interval. Furthermore, by adding an underwater imaging profiler sensor (UVP6-LP), it can capture digital images of zooplankton. Since the data collected by this float is large in volume, it uses the RUDICS format (Iridium communication) with a flat-rate communication fee to gather the data. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
