| Definition | A titanium-housed acoustic altimeter used for underwater positioning to determine distance to or height above the seabed. Can be mounted used on ROVs, AUVs and other such platforms for various underwater construction and hydrographic applications. The VA500 features a 500kHz broadband transducer offering a range of 0.1m to 100m, a resolution of 1mm and a beam angle +/- 3 degrees. It features RS232 and RS485 digital output as standard, and is supplied with free DataLog X2 software for instrument setup and datadisplay. An optional Valeport miniIPS pressure sensor can be added. The pressure sensor is a temperature compensated piezo-resistive sensor with various ranges available, an accuracy +/- 0.01 percent FS, and a resolution of 0.001 percent FS. The VA500 is depth-rated to 6000m. | |
