LONG-TERM, HIGH ACCURACY TIDE AND WAVE LOGGER
LOW DRIFT QUARTZ BASED PRESSURE SENSOR
The RBRquartz³ Q | plus tide and wave logger integrates the Paroscientific Digiquartz® pressure sensor for best-in-class initial accuracy and low drift performance. Intended for long-term autonomous or realtime observations of water level, tides and waves, this incredibly stable pressure sensor in the RBRquartz³ Q | plus can resolve small changes over long deployments.
The RBRquartz³ Q | plus can record instantaneous pressure measurements, average pressure samples to remove wave action, and burst-sample pressure at up to 16Hz for wave height and period calculations. Wave measurements are made by burst sampling, with programmable sample rate, number of samples, and burst interval. High-accuracy marine temperature data are recorded with each measurement. Wave, tide, sea level, and temperature measurements are standard with every RBRquartz³ Q | plus. The RBRquartz³ Q | plus is ideal for applications such as long-term wave, tide, and sea level measurements, high-accuracy depth sensing in ROVs and AUVs, and offshore critical engineering. Realtime data applications are enabled via USB and RS-232 or RS-485 communications. Data transmission to a surface buoy can be performed inexpensively and reliably using the RBR MLM inductive modem system. Innovative canister design allows for easy access to the battery compartment and fast data download via USB-C. Dataset export to Excel, OceanDataView®, or text files makes post processing with your own algorithms effortless.
