Pro-Oceanus HGTD

HGTDThe HGTD™ was designed as an alternative to the Standard GTD-Pro™. The HGTD™ is smaller and lighter in weight than the Standard GTD-Pro™. It is particularly suited for deployment on profilers and gliders or in applications where a faster response, smaller and lighter weight instrument for measuring gas tension is needed. The HGTD™ is fitted with PSI's patented, fast response, pumped, tubular interface. Note that for optimum performance, a source of water flow is required at 3 to 10 liters per minute (optional Sea-Bird 5-T pump available from Pro-Oceanus Systems Inc. or Sea-Bird Electronics, Inc.).

The specifications and features of the HGTD™ are provided on this page. For more information, please contact PSI.
