Traditional sensor solutions remain expensive, complex, and difficult to deploy at scale. Osmo Systems, through their innovative Osmobot, is striving to improve aquaculture by providing a cost\u2011effective, user\u2011friendly, and continuous water quality monitoring system.\n\nHowever, achieving accurate dissolved oxygen measurements\u2014a crucial factor in aquatic farming\u2014required a breakthrough in calibration techniques, for dissolved oxygen sensor testing. The expertise of Alicat\u2019s FusionFlow™ team came into play. FusionFlow engineers enabled a high\u2011precision, multi\u2011point calibration process by designing a custom gas mixing system tailored to Osmobot\u2019s unique needs. This collaboration streamlined Osmobot\u2019s research and development, bringing them closer to sustainable and scalable aquaculture solutions.\n\nThe FusionFlow team played a pivotal role in helping Osmo Systems refine their Osmobot oxygen sensor, setting the stage for a new monitoring standard in the aquaculture industry.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_heading title=”Aquaculture” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” title_level=”h3″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||2rem||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]Seafood is the only source of animal protein that human beings still hunt at large scale. Existing quality monitoring solutions in aquaculture do not provide sufficient data to help farmers produce high quality yields. Water quality sensors in use are discrete samplers, require skilled labor to operate, and are expensive. Osmobot\u2019s first goal is to develop a cost effective quality monitoring solution which is easy to manage and provides continuous data.\n\n
\u201cThe rate of regeneration of naturally occurring seafood is unable to keep up with the rising demand and threatens the health of oceans all over. Aquaculture is the answer to protect aquatic life in oceans worldwide. Unfortunately, the Aquaculture industry is not mature enough and lacks the right set of tools to take over the mammoth task of creating a sustainable source of seafood. Osmobot\u2019s mission is to develop the right tools that enable Aquaculture to become sustainable and as efficient as possible.\u201d\n\n \n\n\u2014 Zach Stein, CEO \u2013 Osmo Systems<\/blockquote>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_heading title=”Osmobot\u2019s Challenge” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” title_level=”h3″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||2rem||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]In Aquaculture, farmers need cost effective sensors to place them at multiple locations for real time continuous monitoring. Sensors available in the market today come at high costs due to high quality precision demanded in other industries. Osmobot\u2019s immediate goal is to develop a cost effective Dissolved Oxygen sensor that can be embedded into their multi\u2011parameter sensor system.\n\nThe current standards used to calibrate oxygen sensor are not good enough for what Osmobot needs.\n
\u201cMost sensors today use a 2\u2011point\u2014or less than 5\u2011point\u2014technique to calibrate their sensors from standard models. We want to generate our own models by having the freedom to research with multi\u2011point calibrations easily.\u201d\n\n \n\n\u2014 Jacob Goldberg \u2013 Osmo Systems<\/blockquote>\n\nOsmobot\u2019s engineers quickly realized that using premixed gas cylinders would be prohibitively expensive. They decided to purchase a dynamic gas mixing system which would provide flexibility and control over gas mixtures.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_heading title=”Our Solution” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” title_level=”h3″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||2rem||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]

Osmobot expended a lot of time and energy searching for gas mixer suppliers who could design the right system for them. Osmobot\u2019s R&D scientist says, \u201cAll suppliers had good gas mixing solutions, but they were expensive, slow to respond and quoted very long leads times\u201d. Osmobot had a distinct and specific set of requirements:<\/p>\n
