Part # Description Notes
4C CTD CONDUCTIVITY SENSOR - modular sensor (square wave output & isolated electronics), range 0 - 7 S/m, used with pumped CTDs. Includes complete documentation. Specify: housing (depth rating) selection.


Aluminum housing shown

SBE 4C is standard conductivity sensor supplied with SBE 9plus or 25 CTD. Because it is typically used with a CTD, it is shipped with a Quick disconnect installed, making attachment to CTD plumbing quick & easy.

SBE 4C is shipped with Tygon tubing looped end-to-end around conductivity cell, to prevent dust & dirt from entering cell. SBE 4C is shipped dry to prevent conductivity cell damage from freezing.

See SBE 4M for conductivity sensor without Quick disconnect.

SBE 4C Housing (depth rating) Selections -- MUST SELECT ONE
4C-1 Aluminum housing, 6800 m depth rating

 

4C-2 Titanium housing, 10,500 m depth rating
SBE 4C Wet-Pluggable Connector Option
4C-3 Wet-pluggable (MCBH) connector instead of Standard (XSG) connector  
Wet-pluggable connectors may be mated in wet conditions. Their pins do not need to be dried before mating. By design, water on connector pins is forced out as connector is mated. However, they must not be mated or un-mated while submerged. Wet-pluggable connectors have a non-conducting guide pin to assist pin alignment & require less force to mate, making them easier to mate reliably under dark or cold conditions, compared to our standard (Impulse XSG/RMG) connectors. Like standard connectors, wet-pluggables need proper lubrication & require care during use to avoid trapping water in sockets.
