Continuous Liquid Level Sensor
The UCL-510 Ultrasonic Level Sensor is suitable for noncontact applications, such as industrial water treatment, wastewater management, chemical storage and other fluid applications. It is built for general-purpose small tank applications (49.2 in. or less) and offers switch, controller and transmitter capabilities in one multifunction transmitter. GEMS Sensors and Controls.
Seismic Inversion Software Package
MPSI v1.2 is a software solution that allows users of existing deterministic inversion packages to extend their stochastic inversion technology capabilities. It allows the user to explore the impact of seismic inversion uncertainty on the lithology, porosity or reservoir volumes over the inverted 3D seismic volume. Earthworks Environment & Resources Ltd.
Next-Generation DTS Platform
Gemini marries second-generation PerfectVision™ multilaser technology with several other proprietary innovations to create a distributed temperature sensing system. For the first time, both new and experienced DTS users have the ability to specify, purchase and deploy DTS systems tailored to meet their individual application requirements. SensorTran.
Interactive Marine Personality
Capt. Scott Shurhold, an interactive Web personality, answers questions about how to keep boats looking like new. Users can ask about specific products, and he gives tips on how to reduce clutter, remove oxidation and avoid water spots. Shurhold Industries.
Navigation System
TurboWin, which increases safety of navigation and makes fishing more productive, has been updated to a new 8.0 version. It features numerous new functions, like automatic update of vessel target information from AIS equipment, a new customizable vessels database for quick visual vessel identification with the help of icons and the possibility to send and receive AIS messages from the navigation screen. SODENA SAS
Rapid Hydrographic Survey Craft
JetSWATH allows high-resolution seabed mapping in shallow waters with the ability to transit to and from the survey area at high speed. The system is comprised of a phase difference bathymetric sonar plus a full range of position, motion and navigation sensors, all built into a Bombardier Jet ski. ITER and SEA Ltd.
Floating Handheld Marine Radio
The M36 comes with Clear Audio Boost, which adjusts the radio’s own volume level to account for the surrounding noise level. Its transmitting power is 6 W. Icom America Inc.
Geo-Referencing Controller
ILRIS-3D enables point clouds to be directly geo-referenced from each setup location and provides an automated process to find field survey targets. It is a portable 3D ranging and imaging system for the commercial survey, engineering, mining and industrial markets. Optech Inc.
Marine Ball Valves
Two-way, 3-piece Seawater ball valves include a wide range of end fittings, such as female NPT, male NPT, socket weld, sil-braze, 150# flange, 300# flange or any combination, such as FNPT by MNPT. The 2-way, 2-piece ANSI 150# and 300# Seawater ball valves meet ANSI B16.10 face-to-face dimensions. PBM Inc.
ESM/ECM Suites
Upgraded Aqua Marine Naval EW solutions replace the NS 9000 family of ESM and ECM systems that included the NS-9003/A and NS-9005, NS-9003/A-V2 and NS-9005/A-V2 ESM and ECM systems. The NS-9003/A-V1, a compact ESM system for small and medium-size naval platforms, has also been upgraded. Elisra.
High-Frequency Side Scan Sonar
A 900-kHz frequency is now available for the 4200-SP side scan sonar system. The user can expect a range of 75 m per side while operating in salt water. EdgeTech Marine.
Security System
Marine Magellan Insight is a wireless security, monitoring and surveillance system with GPS satellite tracking. The system notifies a boat owner or captain if there is high water in the bilge, low battery voltage, loss of shore power or if it detects smoke or heat. If the boat is moved without authorization, Insight will send a message every 15 minutes with the vessel’s speed, heading, latitude and longitude and distance to the closest city. Insight provides access to a boat from any computer with Internet access or through a Web-enabled mobile phone. Paradox Marine.
Multibeam Echo Sounder
A new version of the SeaBat 7125 multibeam sonar system, designed especially for installation on small surface vessels, is now available. The most notable change is a new transceiver that combines the function of the sonar processor and interface unit, thus removing the need to install the LCU bottle used in the deep-rated SeaBat 7125 systems. Cable lengths of 25 m (standard) or 50 m (optional) between the transceiver and the transducer arrays allow for installation on most small vessels. RESON A/S.
Digital MCM Side Scan Sonar
ELICS MK-5 sonar combines beam forming and interferometry techniques with embedded inertial navigation and acoustic positioning to produce directly geo-referenced image and bathymetric information in real time. ELICS MK-5 also includes a gap filler and provides complete swath coverage even at nadir. IXSEA.
Water-Resistant Jacket
This functional jacket is made from a heavy-duty nylon that is water-resistant and breathable. The inner laminate layer has taped seams to prevent water penetration. It features an attached three-piece adjustable hood, heavy-duty zippers and four large pockets, each with a zipper closure to keep valuables secure and dry. The line of protective clothing is featured on the Discovery Channel reality show “Deadliest Catch.” Grundéns USA Ltd.
