Aperçu

  • The Vector is a high-accuracy single-point current meter that is capable of acquiring 3D velocity in a very small volume at rates up to 64 Hz. It is widely used for sediment transport applications, small-scale turbulence measurements and coastal engineering studies. It has an excellent track record of delivering outstanding data quality in a variety of applications. This titanium version of the Vector is suitable for investigating deep-water currents down to depths of 4000 m.

Points forts
