    DVL333-Compact

    The same form factor as the DVL500,  with nearly twice the range.

    Game-changing performance in a compact package.

    Nortek's DVLs have long enabled the development of smaller, more powerful underwater vehicles. Our latest DVL offerings take the form factors of our existing DVLs and nearly double their ranges.

    These innovations allow AUVs and ROVs to fly higher in the water column than ever before, while maintaining the high-quality navigation our users have come to know and trust. Existing integrations don't need to be redesigned to extend vehicles' performance.
