ADCPs manufactured by Teledyne RD Instruments are the tools of choice for the measurement of currents in both deepwater and coastal environments. While success begins with a great family of instruments, deployment products are a critical link in optimizing data return.
Flotation Technologies understands the value of data recovery as well as ADCP technology, oceanographic operations and what it takes to supply products that ensure success.
Manufactured from high-performance Flotec™ syntactic foam and 316L stainless steel and titanium hardware, Flotation Technologies’ ADCP Buoys are designed to outperform and outlast conventional mooring flotation. Available with depth ratings from 200 to 6000m, they require minimal maintenance and are extremely durable under the most rigorous deepwater conditions.
Designed by an experienced engineering staff that fully understands the effects of mooring excursions on data quality, galvanic corrosion and biofouling, these buoys are performance-proven and have a long track record of successful deployment and recovery.
