| Definition | The MAVS-3 (Modular Acoustic Velocity Sensor) is a true 3-axis acoustic current meter used to measure the speed and direction of water currents. The current meter employs a differential travel time measurement technique. Measurements across 4 acoustic axes are used to provide a true vector averaged velocity measurement. This instrument features no moving parts to foul. Small transducer size significantly reduces the disturbance to water flow. This instrument is suitable for long-term deployment. Additional sensors are available to measure tilt, temperature, conductivity, and pressure. Internal logging memory is available from 4 - 96 MB. Programmable burst mode and triggered sampling mode are available. Speed - Accuracy: 0.3 cm/sec; Resolution: 0.03 cm/sec; Range: 200 cm/sec (other options available). Direction - Accuracy: +/- 2 degrees; Resolution: 1 degree; Range: 360 degrees. Drift: 0.15 cm/sec per month. Depth rating up to 6000 m. | ||
