UV-SVP now in Production

Production is now underway on our latest innovation - the new UV-SVP - a small and compact direct reading package aimed primarily at AUV and ROV users, which delivers high accuracy data to compliment survey work.

The UV-SVP (Underwater Vehicle - Sound Velocity Profiler) is based on our miniSVS and offers a form factor designed for underwater vehicles where space is at a premium.

Measuring sound velocity, temperature and pressure, the UV-SVP uses Valeport's class leading time of flight sound speed sensor, a PRT temperature sensor and a 0.01% accuracy pressure transducer in a compact package weighing just 750g in air.

The lightweight titanium housing gives a depth rating to 3000m as standard. A wide range (9-30v DC) isolated power supply and RS232 communications complete the package.

Valeport in the news

Our MD, Matt Quarterly was interviewed for a recent Financial Times article on successful manufacturing companies. Matt explains in the article why Valeport is bucking the global trend and reveals how our recent investment to expand our production capabilities is delivering real benefits, positioning Valeport to continue its year-on-year growth.

Spotlight on: Calibration facilities

With two dedicated calibration facilities, four dedicated staff and a host of equipment, throughput of calibrations are increasing for both new and service products.

"This investment is paying off for us now explains Kevin Edwards, Sales & Marketing Manager. By having one calibration facility in each of our two buildings, demands from production, service and R & D are easily met. The other benefit is a continuous cross check on standards between the two to ensure our quality requirements are maintained".
