Teledyne RDI Pinnacle 45 ADCP

The Next-Generation 1000m Current Profiler

Product Overview The Teledyne RDI Pinnacle 45 is a 45 kHz phased-array Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) designed to replace and exceed the capabilities of the legendary Workhorse Long Ranger. It is engineered for long-range current profiling up to 1000 meters, providing deep-water data with a significantly smaller footprint and lighter weight than previous generations.

Its defining innovation is the phased-array transducer, which allows all four beams to ping simultaneously. This results in faster data collection, reduced power consumption, and a more compact design that fits into standard mooring frames more easily than traditional four-head piston designs.
