8 and 16-port RS-232/422/485 rackmount serial device serversWith the NPort® 5600 Rackmount Series, you not only protect your current hardware investment, but also allow for future network expansion by centralizing the management of your serial devices and distributing management hosts over the network.
USBL Systems
Gaps Series are Ultra Short Baseline (USBL) positioning and communication systems which combine a USBL antenna and a fiber-optic gyroscope (FOG) in the same housing. Their unique 3D acoustic array enables tracking and communication from the deep sea to extremely shallow water, even at angles above horizontal.
Gyro Compasses
FOG-based high-performance subsea inertial navigation system for deep water Phins Subsea is a subsea inertial navigation system providing position, true heading, attitude, speed, depth and heave. Its high-accuracy inertial measurement unit is coupled with an embedded digital signal processor that runs an advanced Kalman filter. Phins Subsea can be pre-assembled and pre-calibrated with a doppler velocity log sensor, making the system easy to install and ready to use for more precise navigation. .
Gyro Compasses
The all-new Seapath 385 is based on the legacy of the Seapath 300-series and incorporates new hardware and advanced navigation algorithms. The Seapath 385 is developed specifically for hydrographic surveying where high-precision heading, position, velocity, roll, pitch, heave and timing are critical measurements. Our solution combines state-of-the-art inertial technology and processing algorithms with multi-frequency GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Beidou, QZSS and geostationary satellite signals.
USBL Systems
The iWand is a handheld acoustic transponder test and configuration device developed for use with Sonardyne’s 6G® product range.
Gyro Compasses
The Teledyne TSS Meridian Surveyor boasts a wide range of interfaces to enable use on any marine vessel. The unit utilises a DTG gyro element which provides exceptional performance with accuracy unmatched by even the latest fibre optic designs. Unlike conventional spinning mass gyrocompasses, the Meridian Surveyor uses a dry tuned element (DTG) that removes the need for routine maintenance thereby significantly reducing cost of ownership. Remarkably stable heading can be maintained for turn rates in excess of 200° per second making the system ideal for use on fast survey craft and in river/harbour environments.
USBL Systems
Sonardyne’s existing Wideband SubMini transponder (WSM) is typically interrogated by a responder trigger sent down the ROVs’ umbilical or a narrow band tone signal. In som situations, reverberation or multipath of the tone interrogation can cause interference problems. The new Sonardyne 8190 WMT is Sonardyne’s first mini-sized transponder. It is slightly larger than the WSM and provides full two-way Wideband interrogation and reply which completely mitigates interference from and to other users.
USBL Systems
Gyro USBL combines a Sonardyne 6th (6G®) generation high performance HPT Ultra-Short BaseLine (USBL) transceiver and a Lodestar Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS) / Inertial Navigation System (INS) in the same mechanical assembly. Key features Integrated Sonardyne 6G Wideband 2 USBL transceiver and Lodestar AHRS / INS offering high performance Small form factor Available in two inertial performance versions; standard for typical top-down operations and “plus” optimised for long layback tracking and touch-down monitoring. Available in two transducer array versions; standard and deepwater optimised LMF variant available on request Calibration free offering rapid deployment Class leading system precisionand accuracy. DP-INS (plus variant) and Ranger 2 USBL compatible Compatible with Sonardyne’s through-hull, over-the-side and stem tube deployment systems Ethernet and RS485 connectivity
USBL Systems
The Wideband®Sub-Mini 6+ (WSM 6+) is Sonardyne’s latest generation of versatile Ultra-Short BaseLine (USBL) transponders/responders that support Wideband 2 signals. The WSM 6+ is designed for positioning Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs), towfish and other mobile targets in water depths up to 4,000 m.
Topside unit and software
The 5915 Tinsley Electroding Generator is intended as an aid to cable repair ships in locating and identifying telephone cables. The Electroding Generator energises the Submarine Cable with a low frequency sine wave signal of up to 500mA at 500 Volts peak to peak. The Electroding Generator is located in the terminal station normally nearest to the fault area and connected to the cable under test by means of two safety probes built-in the instrument.
Acoustic Telemetry
Heavy Duty The 7869-000-05 Dual Heavy Duty Acoustic Release Frame has been designed as optional extra for Sonardyne’s Type 8320 RT 6-3000 and Type 8321 RT 6-6000 acoustic release transponders. The release frame increases the Safe working load (SWL) of a pair of standard RT 6-3000/6000 to 15,000 kg (at 4:1 safety factor) with a breaking load of 60,000 kg. The system also offers dual redundancy in releasing the load; either of the release transponders fitted to the frame can be commanded to release the load.
Radio Telemetry
SATEL-EASy+ is a new product family from SATEL. SATEL-EASy+ has improved LCD display to enable easy configuration, improved MCU capacity and variable physical interfaces available. In addition to ordinary communication functions, SATEL-EASy+ offers configura-tion through radio, efficient diagnostics tools and accumulation of operation statistics data. SATEL-EASy+ is compatible with many SATEL radios, including SATELLINE-3AS NMS product family.
