Providing practical, robust seabed platforms and marine consultancy.
PODS Seabed Platforms
Practical Oceanic Deployment Solutions (PODS) seabed platforms, have been designed to offer an economical and practical product with specific focus on reducing operational time, cost and risk.
Primarily created to accommodate ADCP’s,
its flexible arrangement can facilitate a diverse range of seabed monitoring applications and acoustic release systems.
1
Stackable Design
The seabed platforms are designed to be stackable in consideration of both transportation and storage. Single pallet transportation of multiple platforms and reduction of required storage space will positively reduce operational and maintenance costs.
2
Assembly & Maintenance
The 4-point attachment allows for time efficient assembly and servicing, dramatically reducing time requirements in the field and in the workshop. The fixtures negate the need for specialised hardware or tools, and the frame can be easily be constructed by a single user.
3
Side Apertures
The side apertures have a 2-fold benefit. Firstly by allowing sufficient flow through the platform, deployment and recovery operations are inherently more stable. Secondly the apertures are positioned to allow sufficient access to the holding bracket ensuring simple and time efficient installation or removal of equipment.
4
Gimbal Axis
The gimballed axis bracket serves primarily to provide gravitational alignment of vertically orientated sensors; its design allows quick installation/removal of equipment fixed by 2 threaded socket bolts, this significantly reduces servicing time which is particularly important during diving operations. Custom fixed brackets are also available.
