Dive into the next generation of optical monitoring with Sea-Bird Scientific's cutting-edge ECO V2 Series. The ECO V2 series offers an impressive dynamic range, seamlessly transitioning from the deep blue ocean to coastal waters, all while delivering 16-bit resolution and enhanced signal-to-noise ratios across up to four channels.

The ECO V2 Series is a game-changer for biological monitoring and dye trace studies. Its robust potted optics block ensures long-term sensor stability, and with the optional anti-biofouling technology, you can achieve truly extended field measurements without compromising accuracy.

The ECO V2 Series offers a multitude of variations and configurations of components to maximize the quality and outcomes of your research. A flexible yet precise sensor package can cover the full range of natural waters, allowing for easier and more reliable research, decision-making, and predictions.

The ECO V2 can be deployed independently or can be integrated within other platforms, including glider systems to garner a host of measurement parameters.

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 with Windows and Mac
  • System in a Sensor – The 4–4-measurement sensor option delivers even more versatility and cost savings. It eliminates cables, reduces weight, and provides better, integrated data
  • 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 6,000 meters.
  • FDOM Sensitivity: 5x more sensitive FDOM measurement
  • 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
