and shutter

4-Wavelength Backscattering sensor and fluorometer

The middle child in the HydroScat family, the HydroScat-4 doesn't compromise on measurement quality, versatility or ease of use. When equipped with its optional built-in anti-fouling shutter, it is especially well suited to long-term deployments.
