The Aquadopp profiler measures the current profile in water using acoustic Doppler technology. It is designed for stationary applications and can be deployed on the bottom, on a mooring rig, on a buoy or on any other fixed structure. It is a complete instrument and includes all the parts required for a self-contained deployment with data stored to an internal data logger. Typical applications include coastal studies, online monitoring and scientific studies in rivers, lakes, and channels. The Aquadopp profiler uses three acoustic beams slanted at 25° to accurately measure the current profile in a user selectable number of cells. The internal tilt and compass sensors tell the current direction and the high-resolution pressure sensor gives the depth - and the tidal elevation if the system is fixed mounted. The standard 5 MB recorder and internal alkaline batteries are typically sufficient for a 2-4 month deployment. Deployment times can be increased or sampling schemes intensified by expanding to 80 MB memory and external batteries.
As with the standard Aquadopp Current Meters the Profilers available from GSE Rentals can be supplied with optional Valeport 620 CT conductivity and temperature modules. These high specification sensor modules have been specifically designed for use with our Aquadopps.
A Seapoint OBS turbidity sensor can also fitted as an optional sensor to the Aquaprofiler.
