July 2019 – TD 304 OPERATING MANUAL – Doppler Current Profiler Sensor
The sensor also calculates and outputs several quality data which can be used to identify any suspicious data (user
enabled). The different quality data from the sensor are described in details in this manual. If the user chooses to not
enable all the quality data, the sensor always outputs a Cell State1 and Cell State2 parameter for each cell and a
Record State for each measurement output. These status parameters indicate if the conditions have been good or not.
The DCPS 5400 sensor (300 meter version) has a POM Housing and titanium base plate while DCPS 5402 and DCPS
5403 also have titanium housing. The DCPS 5403 has a higher titanium grade (grade 5) than DCPS 5402 (grade 2) and
withstand higher pressure.
The sensor is available in two versions either the standard version 5400, 5402 and 5403 with AiCaP and RS-232 output
or an R-version, 5400R, 5402R and 5403R with RS-422. This sensor is intended for use as stand-alone sensor on
longer cable since the cable length for RS-232 is limited especially with higher baudrate.
