The SBE 49 FastCAT is an integrated CTD sensor intended for use as a modular
component in towed vehicles, ROVs, AUVs, or other autonomous platforms that can
supply DC power and acquire serial data. It is an easy-to-use, light, and compact
instrument, well suited to even the smallest vehicle. FastCAT must be externally powered,
and its RS-232C data logged or telemetered by the vehicle to which it is mounted. FastCAT
does not support auxiliary sensors; if such sensors are required, the user’s vehicle must be
equipped to acquire their signals independently.
