The AQUASCAN MC5 has been developed from the highly successful WRECKFINDER MC4 to give a magnetometer with even better performance than the MC4, the design uses a more powerful microprocessor than the MC4, and introduces for the first time in our range of magnetometers the advanced turbo-polarise feature.
This means that the MC5 can now be operated on it’s high sensitivity range with a polarise time of half a second. As any professional wreck hunter knows, the distance the magnetometer probe travels between measurements can mean the difference between success and failure when searching for small ferrous objects such as iron cannon.
The half second polarise period of the MC5 cuts the distance travelled by the probe by more than half when compared to the MC4.
The AQUASCAN DX-200 has been developed as a powerful detection tool for the diver, providing a solution for a multitude of detection requirements.
One major role is to complement the towed magnetometer where solid evidence from the surface survey is met with a flat apparent debris free seabed, investigation by the diver with the DX-200 can readily pinpoint the buried ferrous anomalies.
High quality streamer hydrophones available as 1, 8, 12 or 20 element MF designs and 24 element LF design.
Each is supplied with a pre-amplifier and connectors for standard seismic acquisition systems.
The Squid 501 and Squid 2000 sparker seismic sound sources are used for high resolution applications with low electrical power input.
The lightweight Squid 501 is used with direct attachment to a HV cable. The Squid 2000 is deployed from a catamaran, the Cat 200, and is easily configurable for array depth, spacing and power input.
Different sparker tips can be used to increase resolution or penetration as required.
The S-Boom System is a high power, high resolution repeatable sound source that can be operated at fast repetition rates.
The transmitted energy is focused by the array geometry to improve the directivity and beam pattern, giving an improvement over traditional sound sources.
The 3510 PAM Portable has been developed to meet the harsh operating conditions associated with offshore marine operations.
It is housed in a water-proof rugged enclosure with a clear LCD display and splash proof key pad for on-deck operations.
The 3510 has been designed to be a versatile tool for multi-transponder configuration and testing, plus on deck release beacon and acoustic telemetry operations.
Easytrak Nexus is an advanced Ultra Short Baseline (USBL) positioning and tracking system which incorporates Spread Spectrum Technology to provide a secure acoustic link.
It determines the position of dynamic subsea targets through the transmission and reception of acoustic signals between the submerged transceiver and the target beacon.
By incorporating Spread Spectrum Technology, the wide bandwidth transmissions reduce its susceptibility to interference and enables more accurate positioning.
Spread Spectrum Technology is also better at rejecting unwanted reflected signals which improves operations in challenging locations such as ports and harbours.
