Drifter Mooring Data Buoy

Short Description:

Drifter is Frankstar’s intelligent wave observation buoy, equipped with high-precision sensors for waves, temperature, and pressure monitoring, and designed for both drifting and moored deployment. It provides real-time, accurate measurements of wave height, direction, period, sea surface temperature, and sea level pressure . Data is transmitted via Iridium satellite to the cloud for instant access and is also stored locally for retrieval after recovery. Compact, robust, and easy to deploy, the Drifter delivers professional, high-quality ocean data to support marine monitoring,

Key Features

● High-Precision Measurements

Utilizing GNSS-based high-precision positioning and advanced algorithms, the Drifter delivers accurate and stable measurements of wave height, wave direction, wave period, and other key parameters.

● Cloud Platform Integration

All collected data is transmitted via Iridium satellite communication to the cloud platform, offering seamless access, real-time query, and convenient data download.

● Modular and Flexible Design

Featured with a modular design, it allows flexible customization of communication modules, battery capacity, and mooring components according to deployment requirements.,which simplifies installation, maintenance, and component replacement.

● Long-Endurance Operation

Equipped with high-capacity lithium batteries and optimized for low-power operation, the Drifter supports long-term, continuous offshore monitoring. Battery capacity can be extended to meet longer mission durations.
