Pressure Based Waves
5218
Measure pressure based Waves with the Aanderaa Wave Sensors- compact fully integrated sensors for measuring wave and tide conditionsThe 5218 wave sensor is designed to be mounted on the Aanderaa SeaGuard top-end plate or connected to SmartGuard using AiCaP CANbus or in other measurement systems using the RS-232 interface.The 5218R wave sensor sensor is designed for use with long cables by means of RS-422 full duplex interface.Both wave sensors are based on a silicon piezoresistive pressure sensor. The pressure measurements are sampled and temperature compensated by an advanced Digital Signal Processor.The wave sensor application areas are in fixed installations, either deployed in a seabed installation in shallow waters, or mounted onto a fixed structure in the upper water column.

Dynamic Weighing System for Excavators
Loadtronic 3E
The load in the bucket is weighed during normal lifting cycle. The weighing can be started automatically or manually. The display will show the weight currently in the bucket, and the running total. Also, the number of buckets delivered is shown. The weighing system can be used as a tool toavoid over- and underloading of trucks. All loadings are stored in the main unit and can be retrieved either for printing a receipt or for transfer to PC (USB stick/ SMS). Databases of customers, materials etc. can be transferred between the office PC and the Loadtronic 3E system (using USB stick). The files can be viewed and edited in MS Office Excel or Notepad.

MOTUS Stand-Alone Sensor
There are numerous ways of measuring Ocean Waves. At Aanderaa, we focus on three measurement types: pressure, acoustic, and motion. In this section, we cover the motion-based sensors in the MOTUS family.MOTUS Directional Wave Sensor is suitable for integration on different buoy types. It is intended for commercial as well as research use. The directional stand-alone Sensor processes wave data and is configurable to directly present parameters and wave spectrum. The sensor can be connected to a SmartGuard using the CANbus-based AiCaP protocol. It can also be connected to a PC or third-party systems through the RS-232 interface.MOTUS Wave Height Sensor is for wave height only. As the MOTUS Directional Sensor, it is suitable for integration on different buoy types. In the sensor, the directional wave parameters are locked. It is possible to open the wave direction parameters with a software license from Aanderaa later if the need changes. MOTUS Lite OEM Sensor is the OEM version of the MOTUS Directional Wave sensor. It is delivered as an electronic board without housing and cables. Please get in touch with the factory for more options and restrictions.

Software for Current & Water Quality Monitoring Data Analysis
DataStudio 3D
Aanderaa, a Xylem brand, is a technology provider of oceanographic sensors, instruments and systems which are able to measure environmental parameters such as wave, current andwater quality (Dissolved Oxygen, Salinity, Temperature, Depth and Turbidity) over long deployments, several years.Data analysis is an important stage in all environmental monitoring campaigns. In many situations, users have to download and filter through large data quantities for analyses. DataStudio3D is a free data analysis software available to Aanderaa SeaGuard and SmartGuard users.To aid in data analysis, Aanderaa has developed their own propriety software, DataStudio3D which allows users to download field data and plot them on different graphical plots. This mode of data analysis can be carried out within minutes to help user to compare parameters, view trends, anomalies, and to control the data quality.

Stand-Alone Doppler Current Sensor
DCPS
The Doppler Current Profiler Sensor (DCPS) is a medium-range, 600kHz current profiler smart sensor. It offers high-quality ocean current measurements and is ideally suited for cabling directly to various systems or dataloggers via serial or AiCap bus. With its integrated compensation for tilting and movement, the sensor is commonly used to measure current from buoys and other moving platforms.The 5400/5400R version of the current sensor is 300m depth rated, the 5402/5402R version is 4500m depth rated, and the 5403/5403R version is 6000m depth rated and intended for commercial as well as research use. It comes with an integrated temperature sensor that can be calibrated on request.As an extension to the DCPS, we now offer the current profiler with an integrated pressure unit called the 5400P. This version enables acoustic wave measurements in addition to profiling currents. Ideal for small observatories, the DCPS sensor is the market's lowest-cost current and wave sensor.

Motion Based Waves
Accurate Motion Based wave measurements are critical in applications such as offshore wind farm development, navigation, cable laying, breakwater building, and bridge construction.Waves also result in continuous loads on marine structures, including docks, moorings, and offshore platforms.Motion Based Waves are challenging to measure. Variables to consider when collecting wave data include the depth of the measuring device, proximity to shore, wave types, and available infrastructure from which to measure.Several methods for measuring motion based waves are available, and careful selection of the best approach is needed to get the optimal result.
