Our VM Coastal package is designed with simplicity in mind. The VM Coastal is a highly versatile ADCP system that can be easily installed on a vessel of opportunity, making it ideal for mobile current measurement surveys. The tight sensor integration of the VM Coastal package ensures maximum system performance, particularly under challenging conditions.
- River, delta and coastal surveys, up to 200 m depth
- Vertical echosounder beam for studying suspended particulate matter (SPM)
- Simultaneous current, depth and SPM information in one place
Vessel-mounted Ocean
Our innovative VM Ocean package seamlessly integrates modern design with functionality. Offering both advanced ADCP capabilities and an optional scientific echosounder for detailed biomass measurements, its distinct transducer design prioritizes precision and delivers an impressive profiling range.
- 100 kHz and 75/55 kHz frequency options for ocean applications up to 1000 m depth
- Four beams for current profiling with a range over 300 m with the VM 100kHz option
- Optional scientific echosounder with the VM 100kHz package, with multiple modes for biomass estimates
Vessel-mounted Operations
Our VM Operations package is precision engineered for challenging underwater currents. With its intuitive software and DNV type-approved sea valve solution, operators have essential operational data readily available. As offshore challenges mount due to unpredictable currents in increasingly remote areas, our renowned Signature ADCP technology can be integrated on operational vessels, ensuring accurate real-time insights from vessel to seafloor.
- A 333 kHz frequency for range optimization
- Concave transducer design allowing for flush mounting, independent of salinity changes
- Serviceable in water without divers due to the type-approved sea valve
