Cages
We build cages for a variety of systems upon request. All are constructed of 316 stainless steel, and come with a variety of finishes. Please contact us about solutions we can provide for your specific application. View some sample cages.

Flow Sensor
WET Labs' flow sensor is ideally suited for measuring the flow rate of instruments that require a pumped sample exchange. Some applications that benefit from accurately measured sample flow include:
blue bullet Temporal and spatial correlation of data from separate instruments such as conductivity, temperature, depth, absorption, attenuation, and fluorescence
blue bullet Determination of mechanical filtration fouling
blue bullet Validation of sample exchange

Battery Pack
WET Labs offers the WETPak 20R, a rechargeable pack that provides 10 AH maximum. It uses sealed lead acid batteries. The pack isdiode-protected to prevent one pack from trying to “charge” the other. View battery specifications

Cables
We offer instrument–instrument, instrument–pump, and instrument–CTD cables, as well as sea cables, Kevlar (load bearing), and custom cables. Go to list of standard cables.

Power and Communication Conversion System
