Valeport’s range of SWiFT profilers has been extended with the launch of a new addition for those requiring CTD measurements to depths of 6000m. The new profiler provides survey-grade sensor technology coupled with the convenience of Bluetooth wireless technology, a rechargeable battery and an integral GNSS module to geo-locate each profile. SWiFT Deep CTD can operate to 6000m, delivering directly measured conductivity, temperature and depth. The unit has an operational battery life of up to five days and the convenience of charge via USB.

![“Our province has been shaped by the Atlantic Ocean. It can be extremely cold, extremely unforgiving. If it works here, it will work anywhere. The technology we [develop and] use here can be adapted to anywhere else in the world. We are adaptive, we're nimble, we're problem solvers. And at the end of the day, we are collaborative."
