OceanPack™ CUBE

OceanPack™ CUBE

The OceanPack™ 19” CUBE is a mobile “Underway” or “FerryBox” autonomous measuring system. The OceanPack™ CUBE includes everything to run unattended and measure water parameters: power supply, data logger, water system and space to include optional sensors. The CUBE system is based on the OceanPack classic rack, but is a mobile, lighter and smaller version. Even though the system is compact, additional sensor can be integrated. Robust against sediments or bio-fouling, just clean with tap water. Optionally, the automatic cleaning can be connected as an external additional device. Quick-connect water tube connections without the need to use tools. Efficient de-airing with our Debubbler mBubbler®. Space to install additional sensors into the Debubbler to measure true water values in one water tank.

OceanPack™ CUBE Automatic self-cleaning

Optional external module for OceanPack™ CUBE to clean the water supply automatically. Two motor-ball valves are used to run the water in a circle. Acid is used to remove fouling very efficiently. If tap water is available, another phase of cleaning with tap water is included. The cleaning can be fully configured to your needs and is suitable for mostly any sensors such as pH, pCO2 etc. Not harmful for the environment. Fully installed and pre-programmed.

Water Intake Controller (WIC)

Independent controller to open or close the water inlet valve or optionally up to 3 water valves, e.g. water inlet, water outlet and another water inlet. Closes automatically in case of water leak or OceanPack™ stop condition. Will stop the OceanPack™ if the valves are closed. Incl. integrated uninterrupted power supply to close all valves in case of ship power fails.

Water Intake Station

External controller to open or close the water inlet valve or optionally up to 3 water valves, e.g. water inlet, water outlet and another water inlet. Water-Intake stations can be combined to realize sequentially sample locations.

Automatic Water Outlet Tank

Outlet tank for installations below the water line to realize a pressure-free outlet e.g. for the nutrient analyzers. Automatic flushing, pump included. Level detector with alarm send signal to data logger (e.g. OceanPack™ system). Not required, if the outlet is driven by gravity (pressure free) or by pump at the same level (pressure neutral) direct to the sea. Required for wet-chemical Nutrient analyzers, if the outlet is not 100% driven by gravity.

Remote Signal Box robust version

The system state (e.g. OceanPack™) can be remote displayed at any location. The Signal-Box can be mount e.g. at the chief engineer’s room on board or water lab etc. Signal lights for “Ok”, “Off” and optional warnings such as “Bad Water Quality” or “System Error”. The Signal-Box is connected with RS-485 up to 5000m. Power is provided local at the Signal-Box. Optional, power can be provided from the data cable, but is limited to max. 100m cable length.

Remote Controller Box robust version

The system (e.g. OceanPack™) can be remote controlled from any location. The Control-Box can be mount e.g. at the chief engineer’s room on board or water lab etc. Signal lights for “Ok”, “Off” and optional warnings such as “Bad Water Quality” or “System Error”. Control buttons for “Run” and “Stop” to operate the remote system, e.g. OceanPack™. The Control-Box is connected with RS-485 up to 5000m. Power is provided local at the Control-Box. Optional, power can be provided from the data cable, but is limited to max. 100m cable length..

Remote Display Box smart version

The system state (e.g. OceanPack™) can be remote displayed at any location. The Display-Box can be mount e.g. at the chief engineer’s room on board or water lab etc. Messages for “Ok”, “Off” and optional warnings such as “Bad Water Quality” or “System Error” are displayed. The Display-Box is connected with RS-485 up to 5000m. Power is provided local at the Display-Box. Optional, power can be provided from the data cable, but is limited to max. 100m cable length.

Remote Controller Display Box smart version

The system (e.g. OceanPack™) can be remote controlled from any location. The Control-Box can be mount e.g. at the chief engineer’s room on board or water lab etc. Messages for “Ok”, “Off” and optional warnings such as “Bad Water Quality” or “System Error” are displayed. Control soft buttons for “Run” and “Stop” etc. to operate the remote system, e.g. OceanPack™. The Control-Box is connected with RS-485 up to 5000m. Power is provided local at the Control-Box. Optional, power can be provided from the data cable, but is limited to max. 100m cable length..

• New form factor: the 19-inch rack format allows the mounting of 19-inch standard frames
• Touch Screen: the new 7” touch screen enables an intuitive control of the device, comparable to a simple mobile phone. No external screen or keyboard is necessary any more
• New controller unit and data logger technology: NetDI replaces SmartDI. The industrial ARM processor guarantees a stable computer environment according to functional safety guidelines IEC 61508 and highest performance at the same time. We use industrial components only, in order to ensure long-term availability of our product
• Fast data download or upgrades with USB
• New power concept: 24 VDC converter is integrated into the instrument. A new UPS (uninterrupted power supply) allows a save operation on ships or places with an unstable power supply
• Only standards: the simple ASCII NMEA-0183 data protocol is used for storage on the 32 GB SD card and real-time output. The high-precision real-time-clock follows ISO 8601.
• It comes with its own flight case for fast and safe shipping

• GPS receiver and geo-referencing of all data
