Niskin Wing Current Meter Configuration

 

NWCM MK II ---- Instrument serial numbers greater than 300

 

Parameters:                         Vector averaged velocity components, water temperature, conductivity

Sampling configuration:      Vector averaging mode with switch settings:

                                           20 minute sample interval

                                           16 readings/burst

                                           2 sec burst interval

Measurement = one sample taken every 20 minutes, vector averaged over 32 seconds

 

NWCM MK I ----- Instrument serial numbers less than 300

 

Parameters:                         Current speed, current direction, water temperature

Sampling configuration:      Non-averaging mode with switch settings:

                                           60 minute sample interval

                                           4 readings/burst

                                           2.6 second burst interval

Measurement = Four samples once every hour recorded over a period of 10.4 seconds
