A new ADCP equipped with a scientific fish finder sensor (frequency 70~120 kHz)! It can measure both flow and biomass with a single device.

The Signature100 is a completely new ADCP equipped with both a flow direction and velocity profiler (with a measurement range of 400m) and a scientific fish finder sensor (echo sounder). For example, when focusing on the relationship between the behavior of fish and microorganisms (such as krill) in the ecosystem and ocean currents, it was previously necessary to measure acoustic reflections (echograms) and flow direction and velocity data with separate devices. The Signature100 allows for the acquisition of both types of data with just one device. Specifications of the scientific fish finder sensor: Beam width: 15° (70 kHz), 8.7° (120 kHz) Monochromatic pulse: 70kHz, 90kHz, 120kHz Frequency chirping: center frequency 100kHz (BW50%, 70kHz–120kHz) Vertical data spatial resolution: 0.375–4m (1800 data points) Pulse length: 0.5–6ms Resolution: 0.01dB Dynamic range: 130dB

In addition to conventional multi-layer flow direction and velocity measurement, it is equipped with various measurement options. It can accommodate various observation purposes such as waves, turbulence, sea ice, and echograms, all in one device.

The Signature1000 and Signature500 are lightweight, compact, and multifunctional acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCP) designed to meet various measurement needs in coastal areas. Functions such as wave, turbulence, sea ice, and echogram measurements can be freely selected and added later. Echograms can be obtained by using a transducer positioned at the fifth center as an echo sounder, allowing for high-resolution measurement of underwater biomass. With the new AD2CP platform, it is now possible to simultaneously execute multiple measurement functions (patented technology), enabling the acquisition of high-density information in a short period. They are also optimal tools for turbulence observation. Regarding sampling frequency, the Signature1000 has a maximum of 16 Hz, while the Signature500 has a maximum of 8 Hz. It has become possible to analyze parts of the turbulence spectrum that were previously difficult to measure.

A lightweight, compact, and simple-shaped ultrasonic flow direction and velocity profiler. It also features pressure wave measurement (PUV) capabilities, catering to various measurement applications.

The Aquadopp Profiler is a highly versatile ultrasonic Doppler current profiler (ADCP). There are four types in the lineup depending on the measurement range (distance). It is the ideal ADCP for those who want to simply conduct multi-layer current and velocity observations. In particular, it allows for wave measurements using a pressure gauge to be performed between current and velocity measurements, making it a series with high cost performance. The model equipped with the Z-Cell function can emit sound waves horizontally from the sensor head, allowing for the measurement of flow around the instrument. This feature enables the measurement of flow very close to the instrument, which was difficult with conventional ADCPs. The measurement range is from less than 1 m to over 85 m. The measurement range is determined by the acoustic frequency of each model. (Model name: Maximum measurement range) - Aquadopp Profiler 2MHz: 20m - Aquadopp Profiler 1MHz: 25m (including Z-Cell) - Aquadopp Profiler 600kHz: 40m (including Z-Cell) - Aquadopp Profiler 400kHz: 90m

A super small current velocity profiler (ADCP) for shallow waters equipped with numerous new features!

We have streamlined the complex mechanisms involved in handling flow velocity sensors and revamped the design and functionality to enable measurements with as few steps as possible. For the first time at Nortek, data quality verification and processing will be performed in the cloud (eliminating the need for dedicated analysis software). Japanese language support is available. [Easy Operation] Automatically sets three water depths and continues measurements while tracking water level changes. Users do not need to specify the measurement depths. [No Cables Required] Non-contact communication (for Eco and disconnection device settings) *Uses the built-in Bluetooth communication function of a smartphone or PC. [No Battery Replacement Needed] Uses a built-in rechargeable battery with non-contact charging. [Simple Setup] Settings can be configured via a web page on the internet or a smartphone app (iPhone and Android compatible apps are available: Nortek Eco; the web page can be accessed via "Related Links"). [Features, etc.] - Low water depth compatibility: Measurements can be taken from 30 cm above the device. - Number of measurement points (water depth, layers): 3 - Equipped with GNSS - Multi-color LED for operation confirmation *Installation is only upward. *Output data will be the horizontal flow velocity (east, west, south, north) at three water depths, but the measurements are three-dimensional flow velocities.

PERI products are used on construction sites around the world. This time, we would like to introduce the "Tassonaro Railway Bridge Renovation Project" in Italy. This historic railway bridge, spanning the Tassonaro River, underwent extensive renovation work in 2023. The reason for the renovation was the cracking of the concrete due to ground subsidence. Built in the 1930s with stone and white marble, this railway bridge is approximately 200 meters long and consists of nine arches. It survived both bombing and sabotage during World War II. To protect the bridge from seismic activity caused by the clay embankment, deep foundations were excavated down to 35 meters below the river surface during construction. Structural renovations were carried out inside the nine arches of the railway bridge using concrete and rebar. To ensure the partial preservation of the structure, PERI developed a custom special solution that combined multiple products and provided support for both the planning phase and on-site construction. PERI products: 1. VARIO GT24 (wall formwork) 2. RUNDFLEX (circular wall formwork) 3. PERI UP (modular scaffolding system) PERI Japan Co., Ltd.

Our company will exhibit at the "Disaster Prevention National Conference 2026 in Tottori." Dates: October 17 (Saturday) to 18 (Sunday), 2026 Venue: Ace Pack Future Center, around the Tottori Prefectural Art Museum We look forward to your visit.

"Civil Engineering Watching - Infrastructure Encyclopedia: Collection of Civil Engineering Structures" is a portal site for images and information about civil engineering structures that form social infrastructure facilities. We have recently published photos and articles about the "Saale Valley Bridge." The "Saale Valley Bridge" was constructed at the border between Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia, in Bad Kösen, Naumburg. Boasting an impressive height of up to 60 meters, this structure spans a total length of 1.2 kilometers and a width of 12.5 meters, harmoniously blending with the surrounding landscape designated as a nature reserve. In addition to the "Saale Valley Bridge," various civil engineering projects, photos, and articles related to civil engineering are also featured, so we hope you will take a look. Please check from the "Related Links" (Civil Engineering Watching - Infrastructure Encyclopedia: Collection of Civil Engineering Structures). Perry Japan Co., Ltd.
