The ROMOR C-ROM (Compact

Recoverable Ocean Mooring) is an oceanographic subsurface mooring solution that offers a reliable and compact design to mooring and recovering oceanographic instrumen- tation. The C-ROM consists of a subsurface flotation collar that pro- vides approximately 80 lbs positive buoyancy for use in a seawater envi- ronment for depths up to 500m with- out degradation of the materials or the flotation value for a minimum of five years.

The C-ROM floatation collar encloses a customer specified acoustic release assembly as well as the client specified instrument that can be accommodated within the dimen- sions of the design. The arrangement is a two-piece flotation collar that fas- tens directly to a strongback assembly

Remote Ocean Systems (ROS) is a leader in the develop- ment, design, and manufacture of advanced technology inspection and lighting systems for the most severe off- shore, oceanographic, industrial, and military applications. ROS customers demand products that are infinitely reli- able. The ROS product line includes underwater video cameras, lights, pan and tilts, and control systems. ROS’ ISO- certified Quality Management System is committed to ensuring customer satisfaction and continuous improvement.

ROS’ design and manufacturing facility is located in San Diego, California. ROS has led the industry in the supply of underwater LED lights that are true “halogen-replacements”. In early 2010 ROS unveiled its newest, the Q-LED

III, an ultra-efficient LED Floodlight that represents the next generation of underwater illumination. At full power, the Q-LED III’s dimmable light output can exceed that of a 500 watt Halogen, yet it draws significantly less power and offers long life and minimal maintenance. The Q-LED III is certified submersible to 4000m, operates on 120 or 220/240VAC, and is compatible with both 50Hz or 60Hz power and NTSC or PAL Video cameras. Always on the forefront of technology, the innovative ROS Inspector HD Underwater Camera is another of ROS’ flagship offerings.

This underwater camera offers High Definition Video in 1080i and real-time high resolution snapshots. Video out- put formats include HD-SDI, Fiber optic, Ethernet, or Component. A super-wide angle view, 10:1 optical zoom, and auto focus system allow for flawless inspection and monitoring with minimal operator attention. The Inspector HD camera is certified submersible to 4000mand employs innovative controls that allow a pilot to operate the camera’s many features remotely, and upload still images while the camera is submerged and in operation. The field-proven

ROS Inspector HD Camera delivers imagery of the highest quality to the client, with the lowest HD integration costs.
