The water level float gauge uses a float which moves up and down a displacement transducer to measure slowly changing water levels, typically in flumes or 3D basins. The water level is determined by accurately measuring the distance from the head of the transducer to the magnetic field produced by a magnet mounted inside the float. The advantage of this method is that there is no contact, and therefore no friction, between the float and the transducer.
The transducer consists of a 10mm diameter stainless steel tube, which contains a stretched magnetostrictive wire. The tube is welded to a stainless steel head which contains all the electronics for the transducer.

The ship movement system uses non contacting measurement methods and interfaces directly with HR DAQ acquisition and analysis software. This means that full spectral analysis and also correlation between any of the six degrees of freedom and wave heights or mooring forces can easily be carried out.
Our ship movement system includes:
6 lasers
1 local junction box
30m cable
signal conditioning unit with analogue outputs and power supply
