The MATE Floats! Vertical Profiler Kit is a simple kit (not an actual float) intended to introduce SCOUT and NAVIGATOR teams to the idea of designing and building a vertical profiling float and to help them to complete the MATE Floats! Task.
The MATE Floats! Vertical Profiler kit has a power cord kit, a switch for controlling the float, a tether, and a single motor to move the profiler up and down in the water column. Extra wires in the tether can be used to connect a temperature sensor from the profiler to the surface.
