Wave buoy delivery times shortened

Canadian navigational aids specialist, AXYS Technologies Inc (AXYS), is now selling its TRIAXYS Wave Buoy directly through its new offices in Belgium and France bringing shorter delivery times to the European market.

These buoys are used to monitor sea conditions before offshore builds are started, which includes windfarms. They use new, third generation solid state sensor technology to accurately measure and transmit full spectrum directional wave data in near-real time.

Graham Howe, AXYS sales director for Europe, said: “Our European office is committed to placing the TRIAXYS Wave Buoy in the hands of offshore operators and developers across a variety of markets, including renewable energy, oil and gas, ports & harbours, and dredging operations. The new office location allows us to offer much shorter delivery times and quick, efficient service."

Latest updates to the TRIAXYS Wave Buoy include a binary compression tool that significantly reduces data file transmission size resulting in satellite telemetry cost savings of over 75% and a new power system that extends deployment periods.

The buoys now also feature updates that dramatically reduce power consumption to enable longer deployments, increase survivability, and expand data output options in response to market needs.

AXYS said that its leading edge sensor technology has been proven to be accurate, reliable and less expensive to operate and maintain. And this has been proven by the deployment of these buoys hundreds of times over in over 50 countries worldwide over the past 15 years.

The company specialises in the design, manufacture and installation of remote environmental monitoring systems worldwide.
