Balmoral Comtec Equipment
OCEANUS floats
Standard subsea buoyancy floats with a composite foam core in a polyethylene shell, in four uplift capacities and six operating depths up to 6000msw.
Description
Balmoral OCEANUS floats are standard, readily available buoyancy units for all ocean depths. Each float has a low-density composite foam core inside an impact- and abrasion-resistant polyethylene shell, and can be supplied in a range of colours with moulded-in client graphics.
Key features
- Four uplift capacities (OF1 to OF4)
- Six standard operating depths: 1000, 1500, 2000, 2500, 3000 and 6000msw
- Example: OF4 at 1000msw weighs 43.8 kg in air with 50.4 kg nominal buoyancy
- Bore ID 19.05mm (OF1) and 38.1mm (OF2 to OF4)
- Recessed lifting holes sized for gloved hands
- Flat surfaces aid on-board stability and close grouping
Applications
Subsea moorings, instrument and oceanographic arrays, and installation support.
