Introduction:

Daowan DW22 Submersible Buoy is a comprehensive environmental monitoring solution designed for deployment across multiple water layers in deep-sea environments. This integrated system enables long-term, continuous and high-precision observation of marine environmental parameters and variation patterns, providing critical data support for marine environment assessment and research. Engineered for sustained operation in challenging oceanic conditions, it delivers reliable scientific data essential for understanding deep-sea ecosystem dynamics and climate change impacts.

System Components

1. Data Uplink Buoy System

Comprising satellite communication terminals and auxiliary equipment, this system serves as the critical communication bridge between ocean monitoring platforms and control centers. It establishes Direct-reading data transmission channels via satellite communication technology, enabling uninterrupted data uplink in offshore areas beyond 4G/5G coverage.

2. Main Buoy

As the central unit of the subsurface buoy system, this multifunctional integrated core integrates low-power control software, a power supply system, power protection mechanisms. It orchestrates data acquisition, system control and energy management for sustained operation in extreme marine environments.

3. Inductive Coupling Data Acquisition Chain

Capable of collecting multi-depth water quality parameters and hydrological data, this modular chain supports sensor deployment at varying depths. Acquired data is transmitted in real time to servers via the main control system, enabling instant access, analysis and Direct-reading vertical profile monitoring of deep-sea environments. It provides foundational datasets for marine big data analytics.

4. Mooring and Recovery System

Utilizing a single-point tension mooring design, this system ensures downward force stabilization, limits buoy displacement and enhances operational survivability. Integrated release and recovery mechanisms streamline equipment retrieval and maintenance.

5. Remote Data Visualization and Analytics Platform

A B/S architecture-based software offering Direct-reading/historical data visualization, trend analysis and big data processing capabilities. Key features include cloud data storage, device health diagnostics, remote system control and customizable dashboards for comprehensive marine environment assessment.
