Doppler log for high-performance speed measurement
The electronic Doppler Log DL 3000 is a system which measures the individual speed of a surface ship or a submarine through water and over ground. Using ultrasound and applying the Doppler Effect, highly accurate measurements up to more than 400 metres water depth are possible.

Using ultrasound and applying the Doppler Effect, highly accurate measurements up to more than 400 metres water depth are possible.
Key features of DL 3000
- independent speed and distance sensor
- support for inertial navigation system (INS)
- speed over ground (longitudinal, transverse and vertical components)
- speed through water (longitudinal, transverse and vertical components)
- distance covered over ground and through water
- water depth below transducer
- speed of current & direction of current
- undisturbed of mussels or fouling compared to pressure log
