The STR SeaTow 500 is a latest generation compact and light weight single phase AC electric winch designed for the installation of 500m of 1/4” steel armoured tow cable.

Typical applications for this winch are sidescan sonar, combined sidescan sonar and sub-bottom profiler systems, marine magnetometers, gradiometers, oceanographic sensors and drop camera systems.

The STR SeaTow 2000 is a latest generation 3 phase electric winch designed for use with of a range of steel armoured or soft tow cables.

Typical applications for this winch are sidescan sonar, combined sidescan and sub-bottom profilers, ROTV systems, marine magnetometers, gradiometers, oceanographic sensors and drop camera systems.

STR has developed a new high visibility underwater display enclosed in a compact 3000m rated subsea housing.

Full advantage is taken of the latest high efficiency white LED dot matrix technology to realise a very power efficient high visibility design, ideal for battery powered applications.

The display is user configurable to allow for a comprehensive range of input signal formats and display modes. These include RS232 & RS485.

Additional features include display brightness adjustment and the ability to light activate the display.

The display can be used for a wide range of applications, for example to display heading, pitch and roll output from a subsea gyro powered from a battery pack.

Key Features

  • High visibility under water
  • Highly configurable by user
  • Adjustable brightness display
  • High efficiency
  • Low power requirement
  • Very low standby power
  • Light activated turn-on
  • Compact size
  • 3000m rated as standard

The STR SeaSync PPS Splitter provides a means of easily connecting multiple pieces of equipment requiring TTL PPS signals and RS232 coms to a single source.

It is configurable via a front panel switch as a single input (A) to 10 output system or as 2, two inputs to 5 outputs systems (A and B inputs/outputs).

All inputs and outputs channels have full low voltage galvanic isolation to reduce the likely hood of ground differential issues.

The SeaSpyder Underwater Drop Camera System is part of a family of field proven camera systems manufactured by STR for the marine survey and environmental communities. This technology has been developed continually by STR for several years in order to satisfy the ever increasing demand for quality and performance.

The SeaSpyder Telemetry system is designed for operation in water depths up to 1000m utilising standard coaxial sonar umbilicals.

The system as standard offers simultaneous uninterupted recording of low latency live video footage along with high resolution stills photography, along with interfacing to a wide range of sensors and dataloggers

The stills camera is fitted with a high quality 18 mega pixel digital SLR Camera offering full control of all photograpic parameters including manual focus, shutter speed and aperture. The stills camera is housed within a robust 1000m rated aluminium enclosure along with an internal IP video camera.

All data is transferred directly to the surface unit for live interpretation, this includes video, stills photos, serial sensor data and Ethernet data such as an imaging sonar.

Key Features

  • Operation in water depths up to 1000m
  • Simultaneous uninterrupted recording
  • Interfacing to wide range of sensors and dataloggers
  • High resolution stills photography
  • Direct data transfer for live interpretation
  • Fully remote controllable stills camera settings

The SeaSpyder Nano is part of a family of field proven camera systems manufactured by STR for the marine survey and environmental communities.

The Ultra Compact SeaSpyder Nano Underwater Drop Camera System offers high resolution digital imaging and photographic quality illumination from within a highly compact form factor. The system comprises of the latest generation STR SeaCam Mini IP camera and two ultra-efficient STR SeaLight LED Lights installed on a lightweight camera deployment frame.

A dedicated Kevlar re-enforced umbilical up to 100m in length is used for frame deployment and communication to the camera system electronics. The system can be mobilised quickly and has been designed for simple operation.

Real time HD video is captured using the supplied STR VidOverlay software. The software driven interface is easy to use and supports typical requirements such as serial and graphical overlay input, field reporting, jpeg still frame capture and adjustment of video recording and display parameters. To ensure safe operation, the subsea electronics operate using a low voltage DC supply from the Surface Integration module. This small waterproof enclosure also provides the data connection to the laptop running STR VidOverlay software.

Key Features

  • Ultra compact design
  • Single person operation
  • High resolution digital imaging
  • Photographic quality illumination
  • Easy to use software
  • Field reporting capability

The SeaSpyder Underwater Drop Camera System is part of a family of field proven camera systems manufactured by STR for the marine survey and environmental communities. This technology has been developed continually by STR for several years in order to satisfy the ever increasing demand for quality and performance.

The SeaSpyderHD is designed for operation in water depths up to 3000m utilising coaxial or fibre-optic umbilicals.

The system as standard offers simultaneous uninterupted recording of low latency live video footage along with high resolution stills photography, along with interfacing to a wide range of sensors and dataloggers

The stills camera is fitted with a high quality 18 mega pixel digital SLR Camera offering full control of all photograpic parameters including manual focus, shutter speed and aperture. The stills camera is housed within a robust 3000m rated aluminium enclosure along with a water corrected lens and also forms the mounting point for HD video camera and quad scaling lasers.

Video footage is provided by the STR SeaSpectrumHD camera offering high a quality 1080P video feed via HD-SDI over dedicated high speed fibre optic link.

All data is transferred directly to the surface unit for live interpretation, this includes HD video, stills photos, serial sensor data and Ethernet data such as an imaging sonar.

A 19” rack mount Surface Control Unit and powerful topside processor give full remote control of the camera via the easy to use GUI software.

As standard, the purpose designed camera deployment frame is fitted with a subsea electronics and camera housing, high power underwater flash, an array of four high intensity LED lamps, quad scaling lasers, altimeter, depth sensor and a heading sensor. Many other sensors are easily integrated via numerous serial & Ethernet data channels.

The system is capable of operating over a wide variety of fibre optic umbilicals allowing very high speed data transfer with extremely low latency. Operation over standard armoured coax cable up to 3000m is also supported utilising the STR SeaSpectrumIP video camera with minimal extra latency.

For ease of transportation, fast mobilisation and maximum robustness the Surface Control Unit and topside processor are housed within a shock mounted, waterproof Peli-Hardigg transportation case with internal 19” rack mounted flip out monitors.
