Features

Discover the innovative features that set our products apart, designed to streamline your workflow, enhance efficiency, and provide a seamless user experience tailored to your specific needs.

01

Measure test pressure, temperature and/or flow

Measurement configurations are determined by the selected Aquatec HYDROlog 3000 logger model:

  • 3000PT (test pressure and ambient temperature)
  • 3000PgT (test pressure, ambient pressure and ambient temperature)
  • 3000PPT (dual test pressure and ambient temperature)
  • 3000F (flow, in combination with any of the other configurations)

Each logger provides pressure measurement up to 1400 bar, with ±0.05%FS accuracy and ±0.01%FS precision up to 1000 bar, and ±0.1%FS accuracy and precision at 1400 bar. Data is logged internally and can also be accessed in real time.

02

High-speed optical data download

The AQUAmodem Op2 enables:

  • Short range interrogation, control and data download
  • Without interrupting ongoing logging
  • Topside real time view

03

Data in real time

The AQUAdisp subsea display:

  • Low-power subsea digital display
  • Real-time numerical and graphical feedback
  • Up to 16 parameters across four screens with graphical representation on 16 plots
  • Each plot shows the latest 33 measurements

04

Subsea activation

Activate with the AQUAswitch:

  • Designed for ROVs and divers
  • Robust and durable
  • User-changeable switch configuration
  • Positive detents in on/off positions
  • Custom position labels available
  • No power needed to operate
  • 5 Amps continuous, 3 Amps switching
  • 255 VDC (300 VAC)
  • 120 Watts total load
