Systems & Solutions

SmartDI™ ODAS data + telemetry system

The SmartDI™ datamanagement system controls a complete measuring system with many different sensors, power management, meteorology, data transmission, receiver station and optionally sensors. Because of the autonomous features, the SmartDI™ System is best used for off-shore applications (ODAS = Ocean Data Acquisition System) and underwater / artic and other extreme conditions.

  • SmartDI™ Off-Shore Controller:
    Data acquisition system + Power management + Process / steering control (Soft-PLC Programmable Logic Controller in software) + GPS position control + online processing with over 160 formulas according to IEEE, UNESCO + online quality control with data flagging follows international ISO database definitions + internal Gigabyte CompactFlash memory with backup tool + -20...+70deg.C.
  • Sensors:
    Any analogue or digital Sensors of about 40 companies + Analysers for nutrients, algae analysers and other chemical compounds + Automatic water sampler + RS-485 wide expandable industry bus components + up to 36 serial interfaces.
  • Telemetry:
    Wired cable RS-232 (100m), RS-485 (1000m), Long-Range-Modem (25km) + Various Radio modems licence free e.g. 433/868 MHz + WLAN, Bluetooth transmitter + GSM, GPRS modems, ISDN, Telephone lines + IRIDIUM, ORBCOM, ARGOS Satellite transmitter + CCITT CRC checksum + ASCII / NMEA-0183 or HDLC protocol.
  • Shore Station:

SmartDI™ SubSea Monitoring Station

The SmartDI™ Controller is the heart of a complete deep-water monitoring system with many different sensors, power management and data transmission. A receiver station and optionally surface sensors are supported. Because of the autonomous features, the SmartDI™ System is best used for deep-water and off-shore applications or artic and other extreme conditions.

  • SmartDI™ Off-Shore Controller:
    Data acquisition system + Power management + Process / steering control (Soft-PLC Programmable Logic Controller in software) + GPS position control + online processing with over 160 formulas according to IEEE, UNESCO + online quality control with data flagging follows international ISO database definitions + internal Gigabyte CompactFlash memory with backup tool.
  • Sensors:
    Any analogue Sensor, or digital Sensors of about 40 companies + RS-485 wide expandable industry bus components with DCON protocol + up to 36 serial interfaces.
  • Power:
    Power module with Benthos glass hemisphere (without ROV operation) or titanium housings + up to 2000Ah + Depending on power requirement and applications.
  • Mooring:
    2000m / 4000m / 6000m Titanium mooring frame or stainless steel for surveys shorter than a month. + Option for free-falling deployments + Option for automatic recover procedures: with releaser, floating units and light / radio / ARGOS beacons. + mounting kits for work-class ROV support.
  • Telemetry:
    Wired cable RS-232 (50m), RS-485 (1000m), Long-Range-Modem (25km) + Underwater acoustic modems + Surface WLAN, GSM, GPRS modems, IRIDIUM, ORBCOM, ARGOS Satellite transmitter + CCITT CRC checksum for data transmission + ASCII / NMEA-0183 or HDLC protocol.

  • Controle Center

    Control centre with HydroC™ online viewer and ROV control

Risk Management Datasystem

The CONTROS Risk Management Systems are customised to our clients needs and requirements. An other main benefit is that these systems have an interface to already existing products.

  • Use many SmartDI™ dataloggers to get datas from differnet sites.
  • Use many HydroC™ sensors on a single cable up to 12 km.
  • Inform the data centre about conditions, data and alerts.
  • Export automaticly to other users or update internet pages.
  • View alerts / time series over Ethernet from anywhere in the world.
  • Make remote controlled maintenance on SmartDI™'s and HydroC™ systems.
