General Description
The CastAway-CTD is a small, rugged, and technically advanced CTD designed for profiling to depths of up to 100m. The system incorporates
modern technical features which allow it to achieve a 5 Hz response time, fine spatial resolution, and high accuracy. It uses a six electrode flow-through conductivity cell with zero external fields and a rapid response thermistor to attain high measurement accuracy. The instrument is simple to deploy, does not require a pump, and is hydrodynamically designed to free a fall rate of 1 m/s.
