Tide Monitoring System
Falmouth Scientific,Inc. Tide Monitoring System (TMS) is a precision-pressure-based tide meter designed for moorings and other long-duration fixed-site deployments. The Tide Monitoring System's underwater pressure/temperature module (PTM) uses a strain-gauge pressure transducer to measure water level. A barometric pressure sensor mounted in the Tide Meter's surface enclosure provides barometric pressure compensation for accurate tide measurement. A 20-meter cable connects the underwater PTM and the surface enclosure, which also houses a rechargeable battery and system communications. Non-corroding materials are used to ensure long sensor life with minimal maintenance. The Tide Monitoring System's gel cell battery is recharged using a 110/220 VAC charger or an optional solar charger for long-term unattended operation.
Data is recorded in the tide monitor's 256 MB internal memory, can be output locally in real-time via RS-232 or RS-485 (optional) and can be reported remotely via RF, UHF, cell, or satellite telemetry. Output from the Tide Monitoring System is standard serial output, compatible with QINSy and Hypack survey software packages.
