Current Sensor Deployment Systems

Efficient and Reliable Deployment Solutions for Oceanographic Sensors

Our Launch and Recovery Systems (LARS) are purpose-built to support the safe and efficient deployment of current sensors such as Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCP) and Acoustic Current Meters (ACM). Whether for fixed installations or temporary deployment, our systems are designed to simplify maintenance and operation in challenging marine environments.

Key Features of Our Deployment Systems

  • Customizable Options: All models are available for Ex (ATEX Zone 2) and non-Ex applications, ensuring safety and compliance with project-specific requirements.
  • Precision Handling: Hydraulic-operated winches ensure smooth and controlled sensor deployment to specified depths.
  • Durability: Built with AISI 316 stainless steel for long-term performance in corrosive marine environments.
  • Enhanced Safety: Designed in compliance with DNV lifting appliance standards and ATEX directives, including features like crash frames and hydraulic fail-safe systems.
  • Ease of Maintenance: Facilitates easy retrieval for cleaning and maintenance, minimizing downtime.

Flexible Solutions for Diverse Needs

We offer a variety of models tailored to meet the specific needs of our clients. All models are available for both Ex (ATEX Zone 2) and non-Ex applications:

  • LARS Lite: A lightweight, compact solution ideal for smaller vessels and environments where space is limited.
  • LARS 2.0: A versatile system designed for robust performance in harsh environments.
  • LARS 2.0 (1500): A high-capacity system for more demanding operations, with enhanced lifting capabilities.

Applications

Our sensor deployment systems are ideal for:

  • Oceanographic research
  • Offshore energy projects
  • Environmental monitoring
  • Hydrographic surveys
