The MONITOR is Teledyne RD Instruments most popular direct reading Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP). The unit is typically bottom frame mounted and hard wired to shore to provide real time monitoring of coastal currents.
The Monitor’s high data accuracy and reliability make it a favorite for deployments in high volume traffic areas such as ports and harbors where the data is often integrated into a Vessel Traffic Monitoring System.
Key Features
The Monitor is ideally suited for the most demanding environments, including high traffic areas such as ports and harbors.
This direct reading unit can easily be upgraded to tackle a wide variety of coastal applications.
Typical upgrades include pressure sensor, external battery pack, bottom tracking and directional wave measurement a single instrument can do it all.
Teledyne RDI’s Broadband signal processing delivers very low noise data, resulting in unparalleled data resolution and minimal power consumption.
Teledyne RDI’s 4-beam design improves data reliability by providing a redundant data source in the case of a blocked or damaged beam; improves data quality by delivering an independent measure known as error velocity and improves data accuracy by reducing variance in your data.
