Features & Configurations
*not really, but we stopped counting at billions
The RBRsolo³ T | deep, RBRsolo³ D | deep, and RBRduet³ T.D | deep in titanium are small but highly durable and designed to resist all forms of marine corrosion. Deployable to the bottom of the Marianas Trench, they provide exceptional accuracy and resolution with extremely low power consumption, enabling multi-year deployments using any standard AA battery chemistry. USB-C enables fast configuration and data download. Engineered for durability in harsh marine conditions, the |deep delivers reliable, long-term performance across a wide range of oceanographic applications.
Paired with Ruskin software for intuitive setup and retrieval, these loggers are designed for exceptionally long deployments, using RBR’s latest ultra-low-power electronics to maximise endurance without compromising precision. Data are stored in RSK format and are accessible using RBR’s open Python and MATLAB toolboxes, enabling direct integration into workflows and automated processing pipelines. Ruskin provides Excel exports and publication-ready charts in PNG and PDF formats, ensuring straightforward reporting, analysis, and archiving.
