Subsea Thickness Gauges
Cygnus DIVE
Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge
The Cygnus DIVE is a robust, wrist-mountable ultrasonic underwater thickness gauge – providing an invaluable free hand while performing Ultrasonic Thickness Measurement (UTM) underwater. The large, bright display with Live A-scan is easily viewable by both the diver and his camera – even in the poorest visibility. With only two buttons to press, the gauge is very easy to navigate through an intuitive, user-friendly menu.
OPTIONS AND ACCESSORIES
Topside Repeater (TSR) Remote Display Unit
The Cygnus Topside Repeater is a remote display unit connected to the DIVE gauge with an umbilical cable. It displays the thickness measurements at the surface in real-time during the survey.
Topside Repeater with Video Overlay
The Topside Repeater can also overlay the real-time thickness measurements on to a composite video signal, displaying it on the survey monitor screen. It will also then be recorded (if there is a video of the survey), showing exact locations and the thickness measurement for future reference.
HelmetView™ Display
This is a remote display with a fixing bracket for Kirby Morgan® Helmets that have an accessory mounting point. This is depth rated to 300m/984ft, and designed for use in situations with extremely poor visibility and ease of viewing by the diver.
FEATURES
- Multiple-Echo mode for accurate, through-coat measurements as specified by Classification Societies
- Single-Echo and Echo-Echo modes for heavily corroded metals with a thin or no coating
- Deep-Coat function to ignore coatings up to 20mm thick
- A-scan display to assist with measurement verification
- Optional Data Logging feature with AutoLog – storing up to 5000 measurements including A-scan data without pressing any button
- MSI™ (Measurement Stability Indicator) verifies stable, reliable readings
- Rechargeable lithium-ion battery giving up to 10 hours continuous measurement
- Optional remote display HelmetViewTM, Topside Repeater and CygLink surface display software
