Ocean Surveyor ADCP
Explore new depths with proven ADCP technology...

Ocean Surveyors in various frequencies

Ocean Surveyor ADCP.
For over twenty years, Teledyne RD Instruments has been the preeminent supplier of Acoustic Doppler Current Profiling (ADCP) instrumentation for open ocean applications. Teledyne RDI’s vessel-mounted Ocean Surveyor family of ADCPs continues to raise the bar, collecting detailed maps of the distribution of water currents and suspended materials through the water column and along the ship’s path - at depths and resolutions previously considered unattainable. In real time, the ADCP is also used to aid in situ decision-making, to adapt field operations, and to understand current regime characteristics.

Key Specifications
Frequency: 38, 75 or 150 kHz
Max Range: Up to 1000m
Configuration: Deep water hull mount

Features

The Teledyne RDI Ocean Surveyor is the only vessel-mounted ADCP to incorporate:

  • Patented BroadBand signal processing combined with NarrowBand processing
  • Patented phased array transducers, significantly reducing transducer size
  • Combined current profiling, backscatter profiling, and Doppler velocity logs
  • Patented 4-beam design for data reliability

Seismic illustration Powerful, complex and highly variable surface and subsurface water currents are an inherent component of the world’s oceans. If not properly monitored and incorporated into survey plans, ocean currents can disrupt seismic operations in a number of time-consuming and costly ways. >>full details
