The Type 8300 Mini is the smallest in the range of Compatt 6 transponders. The design offers the user a lightweight unit with the same acoustic output power as a standard sized unit, but without the integrated sensor system.
The mechanical design is based on the field proven Compatt 5. Its size is perfectly suited to deep water vehicle navigation and telemetry applications.
ROVNav 6 is a 6G®and 6+ ranging and telemetry Long BaseLine (LBL) and telemetry transceiver specifically designed for installation on work class ROVs.
Its high power output and Sonardyne Wideband®2 signal processing offers improved range and acoustic performance in challenging conditions such as on noisy vehicles or in multipath environments.
Dunker 6 is a 6G® and 6+ Sonardyne Wideband®2 Long BaseLine (LBL) and telemetry transceiver specifically designed for vessel deployment.
The super duplex stainless steel housing with shock and vibration isolated electronics makes for an extremely rugged dunking system.
Its high power output and Sonardyne Wideband®2 signal processing offers improved operating range and acoustic performance in challenging conditions such as when deployed from noisy vessels or in multipath environments.
The Type 8305 AMT is a long-endurance Compatt 6 based transponder extensively used for subsea survey tasks, and is capable of autonomously acquiring acoustic ranges and sensor data without surface control.
The data is time-stamped and logged internally for recovery via the integrated high-speed acoustic telemetry modem. This autonomy allows measurements to be made over a long period of time without requiring a surface vessel or ROV to command the process.
This enables new applications that save vessel and survey time so reducing cost and risk.
The Compatt 6 transponder is fully compatible with all 6G® equipment and Sonardyne’s latest 6G LBL and USBL systems.
Compatt 6 offers significant time saving using faster and more robust Sonardyne Wideband®2 acoustic ranging and telemetry protocols.
This makes any system operating with Compatt 6 significantly easier to operate therefore de-risking operations, reducing vessel time and reducing training requirements for offshore personnel.
Its full support of Sonardyne Wideband®2 signal processing techniques offers improved range and acoustic performance in challenging conditions such as on noisy vehicles or in multipath environments.
Mini ROVNav 6 is also a fully compatible USBL responder or transponder compatible with Sonardyne Wideband 1 and 2 USBL systems and HPR 400.
The internal li-ion rechargeable battery pack also enables emergency transponder mode, so if the umbilical and therefore power is cut to the ROV it can still be located by USBL.
This provides high update rate wireless attitude, heading, heave, surge, sway, temperature, pressure, SV and acoustic positioning of any subsea object.
Compatible with USBL and LBL positioning systems, the Lodestar GyroCompatt 6 provides real time motion data for structure deployment via the integrated high speed acoustic modem.
