DeepWater Buoyancy Equipment
Trawl-Resistant Bottom Mounts
AL-200 and AL-500 trawl-resistant bottom mounts protecting seabed instruments, with acoustic-release recovery pods for depths up to 1000 m.
Description
The AL-200 and AL-500 Trawl-Resistant Bottom Mounts (TRBMs) protect instrumentation where trawling is a concern. A buoyant recovery pod holding the instruments is ejected from the base by a user-supplied acoustic release and trails a Spectra recovery line attached to the base, so the aluminum base can then be winched aboard. Disposable concrete bases are also offered.
Key features
- Acoustic recoverable systems for deployment depths up to 1000 m
- High-impact DeepTec® syntactic foam and 5000 series aluminum
- Adjustable lead ballast to tailor in-water weight
- Double-axis gimbal inside the recovery pod
- Deployable by free-fall, diver or ROV
