Radar Pulse (CHIRP) and digital-signal-processing (DSP) techniques StarFish 990F is for high resolution survey in ports and harbors, and inland waterways such as rivers and canals. With detailed image definition and target detection, StarFish 990F is also ideal for Search and

Recovery (SAR) operations. http://www.starfishsonar.com/store/stockists.htm.

TriOS Fluorometer Range to 6,000m

The fluorometer portfo- lio of TriOS optical sen- sors includes the sensors microFlu and enviroFlu-

HC, which are available in different versions. The microFlu is for detection of Chlorophyll-A, phyco- cyanin in blue algae and

CDOM and the enviroFlu-HC for PAH or oil in water detection. Other filtersets for dye tracing are available on request. Hydrocarbons can be detected down to concen- trations of 0.1 ppb. The reading of the enviroFlu-HC can be converted to total oil concentration of up to 200 ppm. www.trios.de

Lightweight Electric Manipulator Arm

Since the launch of the first 5 Function Electric

Underwater Manipulator

Arm, CSIP has developed a lightweight version of the product following a cus- tomer requirement. Using mostly 6082 T6 anodized aluminium alloy to build the arm, it weighs 12KG in water, 4.5KG lighter than the original arm launched in 2009. The upper arm has been designed with a sand- wiched closed cell foam core structure, adding buoyancy, and all component voids are retained as atmosphere air spaces as opposed to the more traditional oil filled and compensated spaces. All these modifications have resulted in the weight of the arm being drastically reduced when in water, and increased its stability when operating on an

ROV or AUV.

Hand Held Remote Camera Control

Bowtech Products extended its range of color zoom inspection cameras with the launch of the reduced size

Surveyor-SD which includes a full functional hand held Remote

Control option. The benefits of the hand held remote control include the abil- ity to: Select and fine tune long line amplifier; Change camera control, either RS232, RS485, USB or Voltage; amd Select termination resister for RS485 multidrop con- trol, among others. The Surveyor-SD camera itself utilis- es Sony ExView HAD CCD technology delivering excep- tional picture quality with a 36:1 optical zoom lens, as well as 530HTV lines resolution, all within a 4000m high quality Titanium housing with an 99.7% optically clear sapphire window
