What is the beam configuration of Origin 600?
17 April 2023
Origin 600 has a five-beam configuration including one vertical beam. Three beams are sufficient to measure three-dimensional water velocities, but including more provides redundancy and the ability to estimate water velocity errors. A vertical fifth beam in particular expands the capability of the ADCP for purposes including determination of wave metrics
The vertical beam is located at the centre of symmetry of the end cap, and the other four beams are equally spaced in azimuth with a 25-degree Janus angle. Each beam has a beam width of ±1 degrees.
