Frankstar S30m Multi Parameter Integrated Ocean Monitoring Big Data Buoy for Deep Sea Marine Observation

The S30 Multi-Parameter Integrated Observation Data Buoy (Model: FS-MDB-S30) is a large-scale, intelligent ocean observation buoy platform engineered by Frankstar. It is designed for all-weather, continuous, and real-time in-situ monitoring across meteorology, hydrology, water quality, marine ecology, and other marine environmental parameters.

With high payload compatibility and an advanced industrial design, the buoy platform supports flexible, multi-sensor configurations. The upper tower platform accommodates meteorological, communication, positioning, and navigation safety equipment, while dedicated dual instrument wells allow seamless integration of deep hydrological, water quality, and ecological sensors. Collected data can be transmitted to the Frankstar MEINS (Marine Equipment Intelligent Networking System) platform or user-specific management platforms in real time via Satellite, GSM/GPRS/4G, UHF/VHF, and HF communication options, providing reliable remote access, visualization, and cloud data saving.
