PROPULSION
Two vertical oblique vectored and two horizontal vectored DC brushless thrusters, featuring:

  • 15 Kg downward thrust
  • 16 Kg forward thrust
  • 7 Kg lateral thrust

VIDEO:
Fitted inside the PMMA dome on the Electronic POD, the standard color camera has a resolution of 750 TVL and both PAL and NTSC support. An external switched camera can be added and placed uppon the user preference.

SENSORS:
The vehicle is equipped with an IMU unit providing high-accuracy heading position. A digital pressure sensor provide the depth value with high stability. Auto-Heading and Auto-Depth functions are standard.

BUOYANCY & PAYLOAD:
Two encapsulated high density foam blocks providing 8 Kg of payload capability. Additional buoyancy modules can be added to increase the payload. Modular ballasts allow the trimming of the vehicle balance.

ROV SURFACE UNIT:
Composed by a 12U 19-inch (482 mm) rack flight case, it contains all the necessary to operate the ROV. The pilot monitor is a professional 17-inch (431 mm) pull-out monitor connected to a digital video Recorder with 1 TB of standard memory.
