An Advanced Ultrasonic Flow Sensor permits measurement of three-dimensional velocity with simultaneous measurement of sound speed using miniaturized ultrasonic technology. Density, heat flux, and vorticity can also be determined from the measured parameters. These measurements can be used for investigation of sediment transport in boundary layers where other flow sensors do not work well, as well as to assess mixing and dispersion. The geometry of the sample volume can be varied from cm(3) to m(3).
High quality, durable electrical slip rings used in the transfer of power and signal between two rotational interfaces in a wide variety of applications.
A range of electrical slip ring and fibre optic rotary joint products, including combination units, are a key component in the winch or cable handling system for tethered unmanned vehicles. These vehicles are increasingly used for waste management, site assessment and restoration as well as decontamination and decommissioning of hazardous facilities and location. The rotary couplings permit continuous telemetry including video images while the tether to the robotic system is paying in or out. These slip rings and optic rotary joints may be used on land, in the air and both on and under water.

While the optical particle counter (OPC) was originally developed for counting and sizing zooplankton, it has been adapted for the detection of zebra mussel veligers, which permits on-line sampling and detection of zebra mussel veliger concentrations. This in turn enables the optimization of chlorine treatment and other chemical control methods for the elimination or reduction of the freely swimming juvenile mussels.
The Optical Plankton Counter (OPC) provides real-time data for counting and sizing zooplankton, fish eggs and other aquatic organisms in the field or laboratory.
