MOTUS Wave Buoy

The Aanderaa MOTUS Wave Sensor is a directional wave sensor module for use on surface buoys.
The MOTUS Wave Sensor can be integrated on the Buoy for commercial as well as research use.
The sensor processes wave data and is configurable to present Spectrum derived parameters, Time Series derived parameters, Directional Wave Spectrum and Heave Time Series.

MOTUS Wave Sensor – Stand Alone

A directional wave sensor module suitable for integration to different buoys and loggers.
It is intended for commercial as well as research use. The sensor processes wave data and is configurable to present parameters and wave spectrum directly.
The sensor can be connected to a SmartGuard using the CANbus based AiCaP protocol.
It can also be connected to a PC or third party systems through the RS-232 interface

Acoustic Based Wave

The acoustic based wave instrument, SeaGuardII DCP Wave, is able to measure Ocean Waves, Ocean Currents, Tide and Water quality all from one single instrument.

For wave measurements the adcp uses an adaptive pulse technology that automatically switches between 3 different acoustic modes (2 broadband and 1 narrowband mode) to give optimize the wave measurement accuracy.

Pressure Based Waves

The 5218 wave sensor is designed to be mounted on the Aanderaa SeaGuard top-end plate or connected to SmartGuard using AiCaP CANbus or in other measurement systems using the RS-232 interface.

The 5218R wave sensor sensor is designed for use with long cables by means of RS-422 full duplex interface.

Both wave sensors are based on a silicon piezoresistive pressure sensor. The pressure measurements are sampled and temperature compensated by an advanced Digital Signal Processor.

Profiling Current Meter: SeaGuardII DCP

A 600kHz frequency profiler with multi-sensor capability. It features innovative development of the acoustic profiling capacity and an exceptional ability to collect high quality current information on moving and tilting moorings.

Profiling Current Meter and Wave: SeaGuardII DCP + Wave

The SeaGuardII DCP Wave is a 600kHz Doppler Current Profiler that can measure directional wave parameters and currents from a bottom mounted installation.
The Acoustic Wave software used by the DCPS implements unique features to improve the wave measurement accuracy by optimizing the signal

Single-point Current Meter: Seaguard RCM

The single-point SEAGUARD® RCM series is a completely new generation of current meters based on the SEAGUARD® datalogger platform and the ZPulse® multi-frequency Doppler Current Sensor (DCS).

Single-point Current Meter: RCM Blue

A self-recording dedicated current meter with Bluetooth for communications and data retrieval – now with the possibility to integrate a pressure sensor!

Stand-Alone Doppler Current Sensor

The Aanderaa Current Sensors are available in a profiling and a single-point version with three depth ratings. We offer Doppler Current Profiler Sensor, Doppler Current Sensor and the In-line ZPulse Doppler Current Sensor.

MetOcean Data Buoy

The customized and integrated Buoy Monitoring System for meteorological and oceanographic parameters to meet specific applications requirements.

Observatories

Smart Sub Observatory is a flexible platform enabling tailor-made solutions, both with sensors from Aanderaa and other suppliers. They can be used off-the-shelf or customized to better cover application requirements.

Real-Time Data Delivery

Marine data is only useful once it reaches its intended end user. A reliable data management and delivery system starts with sensors and instruments that enable end-to-end data transmission of rich data sets.

SmartGuard Datalogger

The next generation sensor and instrument HUB targeted to integrate new and existing sensors into an observatory system with modern self-describing data format, real-time communication and large data storage capacity. SmartGuard takes all AADI sensors, including subsea and meteorology sensors, as well as many 3rd part sensors.

GeoView Display program

Web based display solution for environmental data display. This gives the user vast opportunities for interfacing meteorological, oceanographpic, or other environmental research equipment in a networked solution giving access to data real-time.

Water Quality Sensors

Besides current and wave sensors, Aanderaa is also manufacturing a range of Water Quality Sensors. These sensors are available in multiple outputs that can be integrated into Seaguard Family Current Meters and Profilers and as stand alone sensor with SmartGuard Datalogger or directly interface to Computer. Available sensors are:
• Oxygen Optodes
• Conductivity/Salinity/Temperature
• Pressure/Temperature
• Turbidity
