Cygnus Instruments offers two dedicated ROV mountable thickness gauges. These units have been designed to be mounted onto most types of work class ROV with a manipulator facility.
The shallow water version is pressure tested to 1000 m and the deep water version is pressure tested to 3000m. Dedicated software displays the time, date and thickness readings on the surface and all of these can be stored or logged.
Features
Two models available:
Shallow water version pressure tested to 1000 m depth
Deep water version pressure tested to 3000 m depth
5 m of probe cable for routing around most ROVs
Power supply taken from the ROV
Only one twisted pair is required to transfer the data to the surface
The probe does not need to touch the surface under test, as measurements can be taken through 5 mm of water
Readings are not influenced by the probe orientation
Dedicated software displays the time, date and thickness measurements on a computer at the surface. Measurements can be stored or logged.
