The UltraLab ULS Advanced Field is designed for reliable and high-resolution wave measurements like wave field – or ship-induced wave measurements onboard ships, (moving) platforms or fixed constructions. The system is the mobile version of General Acoustics’ high-performance airborne ultrasonic distance measuring technology for towing tanks and hydraulic labs. It is ruggedized for field applications and features automatic sound velocity correction and advanced signal processing for reliable and effective measurements. The operation is a total calibration free for plug-and-play applications in the field.
Up to 12 narrow beam sensors can be connected on 4 fully synchronized channels. This allows an optimal setup and adaption to almost all kinds of waves. Measurements of steep and very fast waves, even in small grids, close to constructions or ship hulls are possible.
Due to its properties, UltraLab ULS Advanced Field provides a superior data set for high-quality wave parameter estimations. The system is designed for unattended operation and stores months of data on the internal SDHC-card data logger if needed.
Additionally, LAN, RS232, and trigger interfaces assures the connectivity to external measurement systems. The direct readable ASCII output format can be easily imported to any processing tool. These properties, in combination with its mobility, make the UltraLab ULS Advanced Field a versatile tool for a wide range of applications.
