Deep water rapid response
The LBV600-6 takes small ROV capability to deeper depths. With an extended depth capability, ample tether and powerful six thruster configuration the LBV600-6 is portable and effective.

bullet


Extreme forward thrust and pulling power

The LBV600-6 has tremendous forward thrust with the addition of two forward thrusters outboard giving the LBV600-6 a higher level of capability in stronger currents and with longer tether at full operating depth.

bullet


Industry leading small diameter, low drag tether

SeaBotix is renowned for its impressive small diameter, low drag umbilical. At 8mm (0.3") in diameter the operator controls the ROV, not the tether. The durable tether comes in a variety of lengths up to 2,000 meters (6,000ft)

bullet


Highly intuitive integrated control console
The SeaBotix operator control unit (OCU) is widely regarded as the most intuitive. All controls at the operators finger tips in an ergonomic and rugged controller.

bullet


High-Quality Video and lighting
The LBV600-6 systems are supplied with the latest Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) color camera technology. Coupled to the color camera is a high intensity LED array providing bright white light throughout the 270º range of view.

Stable balanced MiniROV sensor platform
Unique to the LBV vehicles is the balanced nature of the ROV in water. Careful attention to design and layout provide a small yet stable platform for high quality sensor data acquisition.
