AML Oceanographic
AML-3
AML-3 Oceanographic Survey Instrument
AML-3 is a robust, easily portable oceanographic research instrument designed for waters up to 500 meters and 6000 meters in depth. Additional sensors can be connected externally, allowing for a total of 5 sensors. The number of sensors that can be attached to the end of the device at the same time is 3. The disassembly and assembly of the sensors is simple.
The system is supplied with Sailfish software and the data measured with this software can be easily transferred to the computer with the connection cable.
AML-3 RT device provides data acquisition during the survey simultaneously with its configuration. Power supply and communication of the equipment are provided through a waterproof connector.
The AML-3 LGR device is self-powered by a rechargeable internal battery and has a mechanical on / off switch. Commonly used in multi-parameter profiling applications. It records data measurements in its internal log and allows data transfer later.
It is generally used to measure sound velocity in sonar systems, ferrous applications, buoys, underwater observatories, and remotely controlled vehicles.
