and thus improve accuracy of measurements during long-term deployments in epipelagic environment. Four UV LEDs
installed on the inside of the guard illuminate critical sensor surfaces at one-minute intervals, slowing any biological
growth.
When active, the two upper UV LEDs emit ultraviolet radiation at the top sensor surfaces, while the two UV LEDs located
on the spine of the guard illuminate the white ceramic tube inside of the CT cell where the bulk of the conductivity
measurements occurs. As a result, the instruments with the active antifouling show a considerably lower salinity drift,
compared with no-UV units.

The UV LEDs will activate immediately after you enable the deployment. See
