It has a swap- pable payload and a 5-l buoyancy en- gine. Measuring 2.87 m long with a 32.4-cm diameter, it weighs 109 kg. Ex- ocetus Development LLC. Wind Farm Design Software Version 5.0 of WindFarmer adds tools for base calculations on the production data of operational turbines, data visu- alization and wind-flow modeling. A 2D Multibeam Sonar Deployable on ROVs, AUVs and diver handheld systems, the lightweight M Series LT comes with 45°, 90° or 130° field-of-view options and a built-in 10° down-angle tilt to facilitate platform in- tegration. It has a maximum detection range of 100 m. Teledyne BlueView Inc. Mini Connector The 6.6-mm-diameter MiniMax is a 20- signal (0.5A) and 4-power (5A) connec- tor with 24 mixed contacts that can endure more than 500 mating cycles. Available in push-pull, breakaway and screw-lock latching systems, it is sealed to 120 m mated and unmated and can withstand more than 4 Nm of torque. Fischer Connectors USA. SHIPBOARD WEATHER STATIONS For Military, Research, Search & Rescue, and Commercial Applications High-Power Connector Made for the offshore oil and renewable energy industries, the Ultra series con- nectors are depth-rated to 30,000 ft., with pressure ratings of 15,000 psi mated and 10,000 psi open face. They are available in 3-, 4.5- or 5-in. diame- ters, with a 100-A current rating per contact and 4.4 kV DC. SEA CON. Engine Oil Lubricant Tufoil contains rust inhibitors that will help protect a marine engine when it is shut down and also prevents overheat- ing problems in reduction gears, barge pumps and angle drives. It has a steel- on-steel surface friction of 0.029, which means less wear and lower engine tem- peratures. Fluoramics Inc.
