Overview

  • This special version of the DVL500 Compact comes fitted with a Seanet connector, allowing for seamless integration with TechnipFMC's Schilling Robotics work-class ROVs. Nortek has worked closely with TechnipFMC Schilling Robotics to extensively test and integrate this DVL with their ROVs, enabling users to enjoy extended range in a compact package.

    The DVL500 Compact combines the compact design of the standard DVL1000 with the superior bottom-track range of the DVL500.

Highlights

  • Specially equipped with Seanet connector for TechnipFMC's Schilling Robotics ROVs
  • Bottom-track from 0.3 to 175 m range
  • Per-ping and per-beam data quality estimates
