    Brief

    Cefas seeks a custom-designed and manufactured frame for a carousel water sampler to be integrated with their CTD (Conductivity, Temperature, Depth) instrument. The frame must be engineered to securely hold and deploy the carousel sampler during oceanographic surveys and research operations. Suppliers should be experienced in marine instrument design, stainless steel or corrosion-resistant materials suitable for saltwater environments, and precision fabrication. The frame should accommodate standard carousel configurations and withstand subsurface deployment conditions.
