Teledyne Workhorse II Monitor ADCP

Teledyne RD Instruments' Workhorse II Monitor stands out as the company's most popular direct-reading Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler. Typically bottom frame-mounted and hard-wired to shore, it offers real-time monitoring of coastal currents. Its high data accuracy and reliability make it particularly favored for deployments in high-traffic areas like ports and harbors, where the data is often integrated into Vessel Traffic Monitoring Systems.

Starting in 2023, the Workhorse II models replace the original Workhorse models and come with several enhancements. These include increased memory in the compact flash card, an upgraded compass with improved performance and specifications (especially at higher latitudes and tilt angles), and raw magnetometer data for post-processing. Additionally, a 200m pressure sensor and water modes LADCP, Ice Tracking, Mode 11, and Mode 12 are included as standard features, eliminating the need for separate purchases.

These improvements ensure that the Workhorse II Monitor continues to provide exceptional functionality and performance, meeting the rigorous demands of real-time coastal current monitoring in various environmental conditions.
