Wave Monitoring Buoys

Wave Monitoring Buoys

Convenient Design

Storage for USB disks and other devices can be easily found. This makes the buoy convenient to use. It significantly reduces the opening steps of the buoy, lessens the chance of humid air entering the cabin, and enhances the long - term safety during the buoy's use.

Superior Wave - Testing Performance

The excellent wave - testing performance of this buoy is attributed to the advanced design of the floating body and the anchor system. A wave buoy is most concerned about its free motion in waves without being restricted by other external forces. The anchor chain is one of the external forces that may interfere with the buoy. Balance chains are hung from the lower part of the buoy body, and below the iron chains, there is a hanging anchor chain. The weight of the anchor chain is offset by floating balls. Thus, the buoy can move freely up and down in waves without being affected by the anchor chain, ensuring the accuracy of wave measurement.

Perfect Alarm System

This buoy is equipped with a perfect alarm system. Whenever the buoy encounters any of the following issues after receiving data: the position

of the buoy shifts significantly (users can set their own shift - alarm distance), the hatch is opened, there is water leakage inside the buoy, or the battery voltage is too low, the shore - station receiving interface will alarm. The interface will flash, and the horn will honk until the management personnel come to handle the situation. Whether the anchor light is flashing, regardless of day or night, requires the on - duty administrator to judge based on the buoy data. It is incorrect to think that if the light does not flash in the evening or only flashes during the day.

Complete Receiver Function

The function of the shore - station receiving interface is comprehensive. It has a series of functions such as receiving, displaying, saving, searching, printing, generating monthly reports, alarming, and sending messages through remote control.
