Upgrade to MiniBAT Towbody System

  07/12/2011
OSIL has fitted a custom-built, splashproof housing for the MiniBAT electronic controls. This will now provide a fully wet-mateable system, with all controls in a single, rugged, corrosion-proof suitcase. The same housing is available for any ancillary systems the MiniBAT may have, such as underwater video or water-quality sensors.
 

MiniBat Case

 

The OSIL MiniBAT is a lightweight, remotely controlled towed instrumentation platform designed for use with a wide variety of data collection instruments. It provides a flexible profiling system for use in estuaries, lakes, rivers and coastal areas, and is easily deployed by one person from virtually any size of vessel.

 

The MiniBAT is software-controlled and can be set to undulate over a desired depth range, maintain a constant depth, and can even be programmed to follow the seabed with the MiniBAT automatically altering its depth. With an operational depth of 60m and profiling speed of up to 10 knots, the MiniBAT enables users to collect large spatial datasets quickly and efficiently saving both time and money. The software allows continuous measurement and real time display of the data, transmitted with water-quality data from other sensors.
