Wave, Tide, and Current Measurement System

Triton-ADV (showing beam pattern)

Combining the power of SonTek's ADV technology with the proven PUV wave method, the Triton-ADV is the most value-packed system available for the measurement of currents, directional waves, and tides. In one package, you get the high-accuracy velocity data (with AutoVelocity [PDF]), for which SonTek is known, coupled with integrated pressure, temperature, and compass/tilt sensors in a ready-to-deploy system. SonTek's ViewTritonPro software makes processing and analyzing your data a breeze!

Features:

  • High-accuracy, single-point current meter
  • AutoVelocity [PDF] processing
  • Distance to boundary
  • Compact, lightweight, and ready-to-deploy
  • Affordable
  • Remote sampling volume of 0.25 cc located 10 cm from the center transducer
  • Integrated pressure and temperature sensors
  • 128 MB CompactFlash memory (up to 1 GB optional)
  • Internal battery pack (with optional external battery canister for extended deployments
  • ViewTritonPro - Windows software for data analysis, processing, and exporting -- including processing of directional wave data using proven PUV method
  • Solid-state compass/tilt sensor

Applications:

  • Directional wave measurement
  • Currents and tides
  • Near-shore deployments
  • Bottom boundary and turbulence
  • Sediment accumulation/erosion
