ECO V2: Smarter Optical Sensing Everywhere
The ECO V2 series delivers wide dynamic range, 16‑bit resolution, and robust long‑term stability for optical measurements across all natural waters. With anti‑fouling options and glider integration, it powers reliable, flexible field science
Key Features
- High Dynamic Range – One range that covers all natural waters requiring fewer sensors to provide more data
- User-friendly Software – ECO V2 uses UCI and is compatible for Windows and Mac
- Better Data Logging – With a wider dynamic range, increased resolution and data-handling speeds
- Extended Deployments – Through optional integrated battery packs and active and passive anti-fouling technologies up to 6000 meters
- Consistently Accurate Data – Through onboard quality assessment and quality control (QA/QC)
- Extended Battery Life – Increased battery life and new battery pack option that is interchangeable with the SBE 37 and much easier to replace than the ECO Classic batteries
