RS Aqua WaveRadar REX²

The latest development in reliable sea surface measurement.

Contact us

WaveRadar REXwas designed, developed and extensively trialed by RS Aqua since 2017, to ensure it meets and exceeds the high-performance standards set by its predecessor WaveRadar REX, which had close to 1,000 offshore installations. It is significantly smaller, lighter, consumes ten times less power than its predecessor, and is fully backwards compatible with existing WaveRadar REX installations.

Key Features

• 3 – 80m Measurement Range
• Higher Accuracy
• Extremely Low Power
• Real Time Display
• Compact and Lightweight
• Multiple Offshore Hazardous Certifications

WaveView Connect

WaveView Connect software is an optional processing and display programme, for static or moving vessel installations.  WaveView Connect provides robust real-time processing of raw wave data from one or more sensors, producing a full set of wave and tidal sea state parameters.  Processed data can be displayed locally, on the web, or output to third party applications, as well as RS Aqua’s robust remote back-up power, data processing and telemetry system, CODE. The optional motion compensation extension enables high quality wave data from a moving vessel.

WaveConfigurator Software

WaveConfigurator is a brand new, simple to use GUI for users to connect to and configure their WaveRadar REX within a matter of seconds.  This custom build utility is freely available and complements our WaveView Connect software suite which provides wave data processing for static or moving installations, and a suite of remote connectivity options.

Testimonials

“We have been very pleased with the help and support we have received so far from RS Aqua. Their team is always ready to answer any questions we have. Therefore we have felt that RS Aqua have really invested in the project and want the NOC to succeed with it.” –  Scientific Engineering Team, National Oceanography Centre regarding the installation and support for their two WaveRadar REX2.
