Reliable pressure sensor for remote underwater vehicles.
Accurate Depth Measurement - From the Applications of Remotely Operated Underwater Vehicles (ROVs)
Under the sea surface, it is even more important to maintain continuous location information to avoid going missing in the deep sea. Remotely operated underwater vehicles (ROVs) use multiple underwater navigation sensors, including depth sensors, for navigation. A depth sensor measures the surrounding water pressure and calculates the distance to the water surface. Depth underwater is usually determined from pressure. Converting pressure to depth (the water column above the measurement point) is not particularly difficult. The issue is accuracy. We received the following comment from a user using Keller products: "The performance is the same today as it was on the day it was shipped from the Swiss factory. Since I started using Keller's pressure sensors, the measurement accuracy has dramatically improved. I was honestly surprised by their sensitivity. They respond not only underwater but also when moved up and down in the air. The RS485 digital output is very convenient, and above all, the stability of the sensors is outstanding. I am a big fan of Keller." What kind of sensors are being used, and why is Keller able to achieve excellent stability and accuracy even in harsh underwater environments?
