RBRquartz³ Pressure Recorders

Model RBRquartz³ Q, Q|plus, BPR, BPR|zero, APT

Paroscientific Digiquartz-based recorders for tides, waves, deep-water tsunami detection and seafloor seismic monitoring, with 10ppb resolution.

Description

The RBRquartz³ family uses an integrated Paroscientific Digiquartz® pressure sensor for high initial accuracy and low drift.

Key features

  • RBRquartz³ Q and Q|plus: long-term tide and wave loggers with burst sampling up to 16Hz
  • RBRquartz³ BPR and BPR|zero: bottom pressure recorders for deep-water water level, tide and tsunami observation, autonomous or on cabled realtime networks
  • RBRquartz³ APT: adds a triaxial quartz accelerometer (16Hz strong- and weak-motion seismometer) for deep-sea earthquake and tsunami early warning, designed for ROV deployment
  • USB, RS-232, RS-485 and Ethernet; data can be sent to a surface buoy via the RBR inductive modem

Applications

Tsunami warning networks, tide gauging and seafloor geodesy.
