RDCP 600 - Maximum Depth rating 300 meter0 pages

Recording Doppler Current Meter 600

a multiparameter platform

is a medium range, 600kHz self-recording Doppler Current
Profiler. Being a Doppler shift instrument, the RDCP is
insensitive to fouling and highly reliable. The RDCP 600 may
be used in a wide range of applications. It may be moored
at the bottom in a fixed frame, in an inline mooring string
looking upwards or downwards, or it may be installed on a
buoy system or at a quay looking downwards.
Key application areas are:
•t Climatic Research using in-line mooring installations
down to 2000m depth
•t Ports and Harbors for vessel traffic management
and sea condition warning
•t Fish Farming for monitoring flow conditions, spill
transport and water quality
•t Pollution Control for monitoring flow conditions,
sediment transport and water quality

Several profiles simultaneously: The instrument
can be configured to deal with several profiles
simultaneously for optimal flexibility
Instrument and Surface referred profiles: You can
choose both instrument referred and surface referred
profiles in one configuration
Surface cell: For measurements carried out at the
water surface
4 optional submersible sensors can be mounted onto
the RDCP Top End plate, making the RDCP 600 a
compact instrument for environmental measurements
Tilt Compensation: Advanced vector based tilt
compensation with beam adjustment
Easy set up of the instrument: Embedded, Windows
CE based, configuration tools

Data storage capacity standard MMC card stores
512MByte
Real-Time output on PDC4, RS-485 or RS-232. RDCP
