Broadband Altimeter

  14/10/2011
Valeport's VA500 Altimeter uses a processing system with a 500kHz broadband transducer to provide stable, repeatable readings to a resolution of 1mm over a range of 0.2m-100m.
 

Valeport Altimeters

With a wide range of power supply options and both analogue and digital outputs, the VA500 offers great flexibility for the needs of the ROV, AUV and hydrographic community. Digital RS232 and RS485 interfaces, as well as analogue 0-5V and 0-10V outputs are fitted as standard. The VA500 will interface to the Valeport Bathypack and those of other manufacturers.

 

As an option, the VA500 may be fitted with a high-accuracy (0.01%) pressure sensor, as used in Valeport's MiniIPS (Intelligent Pressure Sensor). The VA500 is sealed in a titanium package as standard, in order to eliminate the corrosion issues associated with lower-cost metals. Both OEM and right-angled package configurations are available on request.
