Cefas G5 specfication

The development of the Cefas G5

The G5 is a market leading product offering considerable advantages over other tags, both in capability and price.

Product benefits: maximise your research potential

Photo: G5 tagsThe G5 offers significant benefits over other DST’s in a number of ways. The tag is much smaller and lighter than previous generations of DST, yet has a much higher memory.

The weight reduction helps to ensure that tagged fish behave as naturally as possible, and also permits tagging studies to be carried out on a wider range of species, potentially opening up new fields of research.

The tag is capable of taking one million readings over a one-year battery life, giving far more accuracy and information than other tags. DST users wanted greater programming flexibility, so a key feature of the G5 is its independent pressure and temperature settings. It’s also easy to use and set up so you can take advantage of the built-in features.

In addition, the robustness and reliability of Cefas tag technology comes as standard.
