Bluetooth Recording 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!

The RCM Blue is a self-recording Current Meter which also measures water temperature in salt or fresh water, and a battery container with battery capacity up to 70Ah. .

The Doppler Current Sensor is an upgraded version of the proven SeaGuard ZPulse sensor. The instrument configuration and data retrieval is done via Bluetooth which eliminates the need to open the pressure case for repeated deployments.

RCM Blue has now been upgraded with the possibility to integrate a pressure sensor with a 0,01% accuracy. This simplifies your work significantly as you will know exactly where you are in the water column.

The RCM Blue features the following:

  • Internal data storage
  • Configuration and data retrieval by use of Bluetooth
  • Battery compartments with up to 70Ah
  • External LED with color code reports status
  • Software for configuration and retrieval of data and USB to Bluetooth adapter included
  • Unique ZPulse multi-frequency acoustic technology improves data quality, sampling speed and reduces power consumption
  • Built-in solid state three axis compass and tilt sensor with compensating algorithm
  • Direct readout of engineering data
  • Fast sampling rate
  • Low power consumption
  • Insensitive to fouling
  • Low maintenance needs

Ocean Currents

Ocean water currents are driven by winds, tides and density differences. The ocean circulation regulates the earth's climate by transporting heat. The flowing water affects offshore and coastal construction and also carries particles, animals, plants, nutrients, pollutants and dissolved gases. The acoustic doppler technique has become the preferred technology for most users measuring ocean current, because it is robust, needs no calibrations, can be used for both point (RCM) and profiling (Acoustic Doppler Current Profiling) measurements and is basically insensitive to fouling.

Ocean Waves

Surface waves are formed by winds either locally as "wind waves" with shorter periods, or further away as “swell" with longer periods. A rare case of extremely long period waves are tsunamis from e.g. earthquakes and landslides. Because ocean waves can travel far and can contain high energy it is important to measure Ocean Waves to understand their impact on shipping fishing, tourism, constructions, shorelines, water mixing, sediment resuspension, gas exchange etc.

Single-point Current Meter

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