miniIPS2
The smart miniIPS2 underwater pressure sensor with accuracy to 0.01%, offers a cost-effective solution to vehicle pilots who require highly accurate depth information in real-time.
Description
Key to the design is the unique interchangeable pressure module that allows users to change pressure transducers to maximise operational-specific depth requirements. This innovative pressure module, with integral calibration, can be easily changed in a couple of minutes without opening the instrument and is available in 10, 20, 30, 50, 100, 200, 300, 400 and 600 Bar variants.
Improved performance, long-term stability
The pressure sensor module fitted to the miniIPS is a temperature-compensated piezo-resistive sensor which delivers the performance previously only available from the 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 and reservoirs are, therefore, no longer necessary. The miniIPS2 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.
