Description
The SoundTrap ST500 STD is a self-contained underwater sound recorder for long term ocean deployments. The ST500 features the lowest power consumption of any underwater acoustic recorder available, coupled with beautiful audio fidelity thanks to super low self-noise and 60 kHz bandwidth.
Key features:
- Up to 180 days battery endurance on 9 regular D cells
- Up to 1 TB of removable data storage*
- Bandwidth 20 Hz – 60 kHz
- Sample rate up to 288 kS/sec
- Titanium housing
- Up to 500m depth rating
The ST500 is optimized for long term deployments. In contrast to our compact ST300 series recorders, the ST500 has a traditional open-able style housing that provides access to batteries and data. This allows for larger battery capacity and removable memory cards, making it suitable for long term deployments and fast servicing at sea.
Price includes 60 kHz bandwidth hydrophone, 256GB of memory, cables, and software.
Rated to 200m depth. Upgradeable to 500m by installing an optional Prevco 01104-001 pressure relief value from here.
