Acoustic 15t Release Frame

Acoustically commanded frame that wirelessly separates an underwater load of up to 15 tonnes from its crane.

Description

The acoustic release frame offers a way to wirelessly separate an underwater load from its crane using acoustics rather than divers or ROVs with cutting equipment, with the potential to reduce risk and save time. It is useful for bight release in cable laying and repair, coastal construction on wind farm sites, lowering work baskets or subsea structures, separating lift bags from loads, and marking subsea infrastructure at risk from surface activity.

Key features

  • 15 tonne release capability
  • Commanded by 3515 PAM, Easytrak Nexus and Pyxis USBL systems
