Analyzing a measurement system power budget is a useful practice to help ensure that a proposed system design will meet the monitoring objectives and reliably deliver data. To aid with this, NexSens has developed a power budget tool which can quickly estimate the expected power performance of systems using the most common NexSens buoy platforms, […]
NexSens Technology supplies mooring hardware to support user-designed systems but does not endorse any particular mooring strategy for any specific application and does not take responsibility for mooring performance or damage resulting from mooring failure. NexSens CB-Series Data Buoys The NexSens CB-series data buoys contain several mooring eyes on the underside of the buoy hull […]
The CB-25-SVS Wave Buoy is a simple, compact platform that integrates the NexSens X2-SVS Wave Data Logger and the SeaView Systems SVS-603HRi wave sensor for both water and atmospheric observations. The SVS-603HRi sensor offers accurate measurements of wave height, period, direction, and more. Two additional sensor ports on the X2-SVS allow for further real-time observations […]
The CB-25 Data Buoy is a simple, compact platform that integrates the X2-SDLMC Submersible Data Logger for both water and atmospheric observations. The buoy features (3) 1.5″ sensor pass-through ports, an integrated solar tower with (3) 4-watt solar panels, and a topside plate supporting a solar marine light, weather stations, and other environmental sensors. An […]
The Cal State Shark Lab uses modern sensing technology to study the behavior of the growing shark population along the California coast.
The NexSens M650 Solar Marine Light is a common accessory added to NexSens CB-650, CB-950 and CB-1250 data buoys. It has a 4 nautical mile range and is normally delivered with flange mount hardware, yellow color and default 15 flash/minute pattern (Model M650H-Y). Installation Note: Install the M650 beacon and other top-side mounts before […]
The CB-50 Data Buoy is an ultra-portable real-time system for short-term or seasonal monitoring of emergency response situations. It is designed to accommodate the NexSens X2-SDL submersible data logger for quick deployment of real-time monitoring with a range of compatible sensors. Key Components and Definitions Buoy Hull: Constructed of cross-linked polyethylene foam with a […]
The CB-40 data buoy is a simple, compact platform for deploying water quality sondes and other instruments that integrate power and data logging. It features an integrated 4″ diameter stainless steel slotted instrument pipe and supports mounting of an optional 1-3 nautical mile light for deployment in navigable waters. Key Components and Definitions Buoy […]
The CB-1250 data buoy offers increased flotation and solar charging for heavy or power-hungry sensors while still maintaining a relatively small footprint. It is designed for deployment in lakes, rivers, coastal waters, harbors, estuaries and other freshwater or marine environments. Like all solar-powered NexSens CB-Series data buoys, it is a highly customizable platform that may […]
The CB-950 data buoy offers sufficient power and sensor payload for demanding instruments including video cameras, ADCPs and more. It is designed for deployment in lakes, rivers, coastal waters, harbors, estuaries and other freshwater or marine environments. Like all solar-powered NexSens CB-Series data buoys, it is a highly customizable platform that may be configured with […]
