Hyperion Phycocyanin

Valeport’s Hyperion Phycocyanin Fluorometer sensor delivers high-performance measurements of Phycocyanin, in a compact & robust package ideal as a standalone sensor, for ROV and AUV integration or used as part of a multi-sensor array and data logger.

Offered as standard in a 6,000m depth rated, titanium housing the Hyperion Fluorometer has a wide range (9-28V DC) isolated power supply, data output up to 16Hz and RS232, RS485 with ASCII and Modbus communication protocols.

Hyperion offers an industry-leading dynamic range with no adjustment of gain settings required. The detection range for the Phycocyanin Fluorometer is from 0 to 9,000 ppm.

Hyperion Fluorometers can be supplied in a more rugged form that includes acetal protection rings, a shaped anti-snag connector cover and a kevlar weave protected cable for operation in borehole applications.
