RBRcervata

The RBRcervata is the fusion of the RBRfermata underwater battery canister with the RBRcervello data controller, designed to support RBR standard instruments. With its 3.3kWh capacity (when using Li batteries) and 128GB of external memory, The RBRcervata may add up to four years to deployment times. The 56 D-cell battery pack provides a nominal 12V output.

Your RBRquartz³ BPR | zero can be connected to or disconnected from the RBRcervata at any time. Power delivery to an attached instrument is constant, regardless of the state of the data controller, including during deep sleep mode. The RBRcervata downloads the data from your instrument to its memory card at set intervals. It also facilitates advanced deployment management: reconfiguring the instrument, synchronising the realtime clock, and rotating the memory to accommodate longer deployments.
