The MIDAS SVX2 is the latest version of Valeport’s unique instrument. Recognising the conflict faced by users requiring the superior Sound Velocity data from an SVP, but still needing the Salinity and Density data from a CTD, the MIDAS SVX2 combines both technologies to give the best of both worlds. Now fitted with a 0.01% pressure sensor as standard, the SVX2 also uses synchronised sampling to ensure perfect profiles, and since the digital time of flight SV sensor is the most accurate in the world, it’s also possible to compare the true sound velocity data with that generated by commonly used equations.

The miniSVP has been developed to provide a cost effective tool for the collection of Sound Velocity Profiles, without compromising the quality of the data. Ideally suited to ROV, coastal, or small boat applications, the miniSVP will appeal to survey companies, the military and academia alike, being simple to use, easy to handle, and featuring the most accurate SV sensor in the world.

Based on the Valeport miniSVS, the UV-SVP offers a form-factor designed for Underwater Vehicles where space is at a premium. Incorporating Valeport’s class leading time of flight sound speed sensor, a PRT temperature sensor and a 0.01% pressure sensor in a compact package weighing just 750 grams (in air), the lightweight titanium housing gives a depth rating of 3000m. A wide range (9-30V DC) isolated power supply and RS232 communications complete the package.

Designed from the outset with the intention of a seamless workflow, the SWiFT SVP has integral GPS to geo-locate every profile. 
This new compact unit features high accuracy SV, Pressure and Temperature as you would expect, plus integral GPS, re-chargeable battery, LED status indications for GPS, battery and communications.  
Data can be easily and quickly downloaded, reviewed and translated to common SVP formats wirelessly via Bluetooth Smart using the SWiFT APP on iOS devices where data can be instantly shared via FTP, email and cloud services. 
Our Connect software for PC use will also support the SWiFT SVP.   
With a battery endurance of up to a week and easy charging via USB, the SWiFT SVP is intended for coastal, harbour and inland hydrographic survey use and offers the highest quality sound velocity profiles in a compact, robust and portable package.

The rapidPro SVT has been developed for the rapid collection of sound velocity profiles, without compromising the quality of the data. Now further developed with a new optimised shape and removable ProLogger module that combines a rechargeable lithium ion battery, data logger, GPS receiver and Bluetooth comms module. Accurate Sound Velocity with virtually instantaneous response time, data acquisition rates of up to 32Hz housed in a low drag housing result in the highest quality profiles at drop rates up to 5 m/s.
