Valeport SWIFT SVP

The Valeport MIDAS SVP is a high-precision sound velocity profiler designed to measure and monitor sound velocityin water at varying depths. The system is ideal for oceanographic, hydrographic, and surveying applications that require accurate sound velocity measurements for calibration and correction of multibeam sonar, single-beam echo sounders, and subsea positioning systems. The MIDAS SVP is designed for deployment on vessels, AUVs, ROVs, and as a standalone instrument for in-situ profiling.

This instrument provides real-time profiling of the water column for speed of sound measurement, which is critical for accurate depth and distance calculations in subsea operations. The MIDAS SVP is known for its compact design, easy deployment, and high stability, making it a reliable tool for marine data collection.

The system uses a precise pressure sensor to calculate sound velocity and is equipped with a user-friendly interface, offering both real-time data output and data logging capabilities for future reference and processing.
