|
INTRODUCING THE NEW DOPPLER VOLUME SAMPLER (DVS)- Teledyne RD Instruments' latest advancement in current measurement.
|
|
|
Doppler Volume Sampler (DVS) The DVS offers you with an exponential leap from your single point current meter to a revolutionary current profiler designed for deep water, moored applications. Discover the many unique benefits that only the DVS can offer - at a price comparable to a single point. |
|
NEW!! EXPRESS ADCP CONFIGURATION: Value priced ADCP configuration for your basic current profiling needs
|
 |
NEW! Express ADCP Configuration Teledyne RD Instruments Marine Measurements Business Unit is pleased to announce the availability of the NEW Value Priced Express ADCP .
|
|
MONITOR: Direct-read ADCP for real-time data collection
|
|

|
Workhorse Monitor ADCP Teledyne RDI's most popular direct read ADCP. The unit is typically bottom frame mounted and hard wired to shore to provide real time monitoring of coastal currents.
Available in 300, 600 and 1200 kHz frequency. |
|
SENTINEL: Versatile, self-contained ADCP for mooring, bottom mount, or moving boat applications
|
 |
Workhorse Sentinel ADCP The Sentinel is our most versatile instrument. Thousands of Workhorse Sentinel ADCPs™ are profiling currents around the globe. Our customers choose it for its unbeatable precision in shallow waters, its 175-meter profiling range, and unmatched low power consumption for extended deployments.
Available in 300, 600 and 1200 kHz frequency. |
|
MARINER: Vessel-mounted ADCP for coastal applications |
|

|
Workhorse Mariner ADCP Researchers and commercial surveyors working in coastal waters saw what our best-selling Sentinel instrument could do, and asked for a version designed specifically for underway current profiling from inshore hydrographic survey vessels. The result - the Mariner ADCP.
Available in 300, 600 and 1200 kHz frequency. |
|
HORIZONTAL ADCP (Long Range): Extended range horizontal ADCP with Wave measurement capability
|
 |
Workhorse H-ADCP (Long Range) Teledyne RDI's 300 kHz Long Range Horizontal ADCP (H-ADCP) is an acoustic monitoring system that "looks" out horizontally up to 300 meters from a coastal / offshore structure, or vessel to measure near surface water currents.
|
|
WAVE GAUGE: Multi-directional Wave Gauge -- collect waves and current data simultaneously
|
 |
Workhorse Waves Array Better than a directional wave buoy, more powerful than a single instrument. An easy upgrade to your Workhorse ADCP provides you with the performance and results of an high end waves array.
|
|
NEMO MODULE: Waves Data Compression Module / Datalogger for real-time, wireless data applications
|
 |
Workhorse NEMO Wave Processing Module Now there’s no reason to wait for your critical RD Instruments Waves data. Teledyne RDI’s new NEMO Waves Processing Module actually processes your ADCP/ Waves data at the source, removing the typical constraints for transmitting this data to the surface. NEMO provides you with real-time data for real-time decision making.
|
|
QUARTERMASTER: Highly flexible, extended range ADCP for "Continental Shelf" applications
|
 |
Workhorse Quartermaster ADCP Teledyne RDI's new 150 kHz QuarterMaster ADCP has been designed to fill a gap between our 300 kHz Workhorse ADCPs and our 75 kHz Workhorse Long Ranger.
This unit offers an extended current profiling range over our higher frequency units, in our proven Long Ranger configuration, and is ideally suited for applications requiring up to 300 meters range. The highly versatile QuarterMaster can also be upgraded to include our bottom tracking option.
|
|
LONG RANGER: Highly rugged and reliable ADCP for extended range applications
|
 |
Workhorse Long Ranger ADCP The 75 kHz Long Ranger is Teledyne RDI's Sentinel based instrument designed specifically for long range (up to 600m) , long duration (up to six months) autonomous deployments. Teledyne RDI's patented Broadband technology ensures data reliability, providing the peace of mind you need in long-term, deepwater data collection programs.
|
|
OCEAN SURVEYOR: Hull-mounted ADCP for applications requiring extended ranges
|
 |
Ocean Surveyor The Ocean Surveyor family of ADCPs™ adds a new chapter to Teledyne RDI's unique contribution to the worldwide open-ocean research fleet. The Ocean Surveyor has been installed on more than 250 vessel-mounted ADCPs™ around the world. These ADCPs™ provide detailed maps of the distribution of water currents and suspended materials through the water column and along the ship's path.
Available in 38, 75, and 150 kHz.
|
|
OCEAN OBSERVER: ADCP providing the deepest profiling range available
|
 |
Ocean Observer Teledyne RDI dominates the offshore oil and gas sector with field-proven instruments designed to facilitate exploration drilling, field development and production. The Ocean Observer offers the greatest profiling range available, combined with Teledyne RDI's proven product reliability.
Available in 38, 75, and 150 kHz.

Teledyne RDI Citadel CTD Products
In May 2009, Teledyne RDI purchased the entire line of Conductivity, Depth, and Temperature (CTD) products from Falmouth Scientific Incorporated (FSI), including the patented Non-external Inductive Cell (NXIC), which has already acquired a solid reputation for robust operation in shallow, fouling environments.
This product line delivers exciting and proven technology that is complementary to Teledyne RDI’s ADCP products, and represents a tremendous opportunity to deliver turn-key solutions.
CTDs are used extensively around the globe for the measurement of temperature and salinity, but also for the important derived parameters of density and speed of sound. They are used for academic, commercial and defense applications; and are often used in concert with ADCPs to gain a clearer understanding of the ocean’s complex physical environment.
