Port/Harbor Currents - Wharf Area
[IV-B]

I want to make measurements in ports and harbors... [change]
...specifically, to measure currents near a wharf. [change]

Argonaut-SL Family2-Beam ADP (SL-ADP)Both the Argonaut-SL (Side-Looking; left) current meter and the Side-Looking Acoustic Doppler Profiler (SL-ADP; right) are ideal for mounting on a wharf. Either can be fixed to a piling and be configured to provide real-time information on horizontal currents alongside the wharf.

 

Argonaut-SL w/ vertical beamThe Argonaut-SL reports a single velocity that can extend as far as 22 m from the wharf, while the SL-ADP can provide a profile of the horizontal velocity in a series of cells that can extend over 100 m from the wharf.
