Description

FGM3D UW - For maritime applications

The FGM3D UW is a compact three-axis Fluxgate magnetometer for maritime applications. It can be used in shallow waters, as well as for offshore and deep sea applications. As part of of the MX3D UW magnetometer system and the SEARACK ROV sensor frame the sensors are used for efficient and low logistics ROV based surveys. Those ROVS surveys include detection of buried UXO in seabed, but also inspection of offshore infrastructure such as foundations, pipelines or cable lines.

The FGM3D UW is being used for example for stationary application as in naval degaussing systems, but also for long-term measurements of the Earth’s magnetic field.
