- Materials and equipment specially designed for marine environment for a long durability of the system.
- Buoy highly conspicuous during day and night for safety of navigation, equipped with a marine lantern, radar reflector, top mark and with the integration of an AIS transponder. Designed according to IALA recommendations.
- Float manufactured closed-cell polyethylene solid foam sheet and projected with a layer of polyurethane elastomer providing an unsinkable buoy resistant to collisions.
- Anti-vandal security systems to maintain the integrity of the buoy, including impact sensor with automatic alarm to the Control Centre.
- GPS positioning system with out of position alarm in case of rupture of mooring system.
- Mooring systems for deep waters.
- The pressure sensor can measure variations in the water surface up to 1mm and triggers a tsunami event in case of variation of only 3cm, with special algorithms to discard false events, for a total accuracy of the detection of a tsunami event.
- Pressure sensor’s mooring system specially designed to optimise its immersion towards the seabed and ensure its verticality.
- Redundant communications via satellite permanently monitored from the Control Centre with alarm in case of transmission failure or delay.
- Web application installed in two dedicated servers for user-friendly display of pressure measurements and monitoring of all the buoys parameter.
- Message compatible and can be integrated in the NOAA Tsunami Early Warning System.
- Capacity to integrate oceanographic and weather sensors to measure useful parameters that contribute to scientific development and studies on global and regional climate change.
