These items will be used to track White Sturgeon in the San Joaquin River Basin. Items need to be delivered to the LFWO White Sturgeon Telemetry(WST) Project prior to the end the the 2023 Fiscal Year.
Item: VR2W 69kHz Acoustic Recievers and V16-4x Acoustic tags
1 Product Features
Name of Item: VR2W 69kHz Acoustic Recievers and V16-4x Acoustic tags
Manufacturer: Innovasea
Model Number: VR2W 69kHz Acoustic Recievers and V16-4x Acoustic tags or approved equal
The VR2W Acoustic Receivers is the cheapest of these proprietary 69kHz acoustic receiver models manufactured by innovasea but still meets the needs for our study. They can detect all of the 101 white surgeon that were previously tagged with V16-4x Acoustic tags for this project and are compatible with the other 30 VR2W acoustic receivers that are already owned by USFWS and used for this project. These V16-4x acoustic tags are needed because they can be detected by the 30 VR2W acoustic receivers that USFWS owns and uses for this project, they last 3,650 hours when they are programmed at a ; Power L; Random Delay: 50 to 130 seconds Loop back to step 1, and only weigh 24 grams (10.3 grams in water) to be less than 5% tag burden for the fish that well be tagging. They should also have a 16mm diameter with a length of 68mm.
Salient Characteristics: Acoustic receiver need to be able to detect 69 kHz tags, store up to 1.6 million detections (16 Mbytes), be waterproof, and have a 15 month battery life. For the acoustic tags they need to have a battery life of 3,650, hours when programed at ; Power L; Random Delay: 50 to 130 seconds Loop back to step 1, only weigh 24 grams (10.3 grams in water) to be less than 5% tag burden, and be 16mm in diameter with a length of 68mm.
Capabilities: (if applicable): ____________________________
