On Honeywell's 'HydroStar

Plus' Acoustic System

A new color brochure from Hon- eywell's offshore business highlights the new HydroStar Plus, the com- pany's advanced subsea positioning system. The system is based on a field-proven HydroStar design and offers a transponder mode, in addi- tion to responder and pinger modes of operation.

The HydroStar Plus is an ultra- short-baseline acoustic system that provides range, bearing and depth information of subsea positions by use of a single subsea beacon and a single multi-element shipboard transducer.

Honeywell's three-year limited warranty, the first of its kind in the offshore industry, covers the Hy- droStar Plus control console, hydro- phone and hydrophone cable against defective parts and work- manship.
