Our New Sensor Fish Will Help Your Dam be More Fish Friendly.
Most of the worlds large dams must be inspected, evaluated, and relicensed through their lives.
One of the evaluations examines how well fish are able to withstand passage through the dam. ATS now offers a solution for dam owner/operators to help provide data needed to make that evaluation: the ARC800 Sensor Fish.
The Sensor Fish is a small autonomous device that analyzes the physical conditions fish experience as they pass through dams and other hydro structures. This synthetic “fish” is helping existing hydroelectric dams and new, smaller hydro facilities become more fish-friendly.
The "fishes" on-board sensors include temperature, pressure, acceleration, and a gyroscope. These sensors are used to measure stresses that would be placed on small fish as they pass through the dam. Applications include hydro turbines (Kaplan, Francis, and gravitation water vortex turbines), small hydropower or pumped storage hydroelectric facilities, and spillways, irrigation structures, and pumping stations.
The Sensor Fish is under four inches long and weighs just 1.5 ounces. It will be available to ship in Spring 2019! Contact your ATS Consultant for more details.
