Valeport presents a variety of integrated instrumentation packages designed to provide high-quality data, whatever the application. Valeport’s unique digital signal processing techniques use fuzzy logic to pick out and lock onto the genuine echo, while automatic power and gain control means that erroneous echoes are minimized and accurate readings can be made in water depths as shallow as 30cm. As a stand-alone altimeter, this technology is ideal for integration into bathymetry packs. Combining the technology with integral GPS receiver and onboard data logging provides our echosounders with the benefits of maximum versatility and minimal deployment time.

miniIPS1
A precision underwater pressure sensor featuring 0.01% accuracy, a titanium housing, and choice of pressure ranges. A it a cost-effective solution for offshore engineers and vehicle pilots requiring highly accurate depth information in real-time.
Now with improved power consumption, isolated power and comms.
The miniIPS1 is compatible with Valeport’s MIDAS BathyPack and BathyLog software, allowing the depth data to be continually updated for Density variations in the water column.
The pressure sensor fitted to the miniIPS is a temperature compensated piezo-resistive sensor, which delivers the performance previously only available from a resonant quartz sensor at a more cost-effective price. It also brings the added advantages of long-term stability, allowing longer intervals between calibration, and a smaller and more robust construction; complex and vulnerable arrangements of diaphragms and oil filled capillaries & reservoirs are therefore no longer necessary.
