LBV150S2 - Overview

The SeaBotix LBV150S² is an affordable streamlined MiniROV system. Added umbilical length and the integrate control console provide a well rounded system that is simple to setup and operate.

Complete MiniROV
The LBV150S² offers all the proven features of the LBV systems. Ideally suited to inshore or civil applications where a rapid setup is required. The integrated control console, umbilical and ROV take only minutes to have ready for operation.

Powerful Thrusters
The LBV150S² is equipped with four powerful, thrusters. There is 1-lateral, 2-forward, and 1-vertical thruster, enabling maneuverability in four axes, just like a helicopter. The additional lateral thruster adds the capability to fly sideways, allowing the operator to keep either camera on target while piloting along a ship hull or dam surface. On-the-fly, 10-step variable power control to each axis allows for smooth video and sensor recording. For added reliability, serviceability, and peace of mind, each thruster is identical and independent of the vehicle enclosure, ensuring no dynamic seals penetrate the vehicle’s electronics enclosure.

Long Umbilical
The LBV150S² comes equipped with a generous 150 meters (500ft) of our revolutionary small diameter umbilical. Managing the long umbilical is simple with the heavy duty reel. The extremely small-diameter of our umbilical presents at least 25% less drag than other systems meaning the vehicle is controlled by the operator, not the umbilical.

Intuitive Controls
Operation of the LBV150S² is simple with the standard Integrated Control Console featuring the acclaimed LBV Hand Controller. Standard Auto-Heading, Depth, and Trim, as well as all system functions are at your fingertips in a logical, simple layout. Added features include the 38 cm (15") monitor behind a waterproof panel, sunshade for direct light operations and sealed components for harsh environment operations. The programmable Video Overlay displays heading, depth, temperature, thruster gain settings, auto settings, cable turns, and time/date.

High-Quality Video and Sensor Data
The Fiber Optic video system provides crystal-clear images from the standard high-resolution color and low-light B/W cameras. Both cameras have a total 270º field of view through 180º rotation of the camera enclosure. The internal, fully-adjustable LED Lighting array provides brilliant, white light as it tracks the color camera. Custom FSK electronics are included to provide an additional RS232 channel for options such as sonar for harsh environment operations. The programmable Video Overlay displays heading, depth, temperature, thruster gain settings, auto settings, cable turns, and time/date.

Options
The LBV150S² is a very complete system, however, many options are available to further customize the system to each client's requirements. Add items like a three jaw grabber, USBL tracking system and external lighting.

Extended Support
Each LBV150S² is supplied with the SeaBotix 24-Month Limited Warranty. This added coverage along with our 24/7 Tech Support adds peace of mind and confidence. Personalized factory and on-site training is also available.
