3 1. Triumph Submersible General Overview The Triumph is a self propelled electric vessel that can carry three occupants in a one atmosphere acrylic cabin to depths of 1500 feet of sea water. The cabin opens like a clam shell and allows for easy entry and exit by the occupants. The sealed cabin is equipped with a full life support system where scrubbers remove the carbon dioxide, oxygen is replenished at a controlled flow ate, and the environment is monitored by various analyzers. In surface mode, the flotation system permits the craft to float high above the water line with a freeboard of over 30 inches. When the surface flotation is fully deflated the craft remains slightly positively buoyant and will only submerge when driven downwards by its vertical thrusters. Underwater, the Triumph remains practically horizontal at all times and does not roll nor pitch. The buoyancy and balance of the craft is static. All eight electric propulsion thrusters are fixed and either push or pull depending on the direction of rotation of the propellers. Depth control is achieved by the vertical thrusters. Piloting the craft is via a joystick in the cabin. At the end of the dive the flotation bladders are re-inflated so that the craft floats back above the water line and the cabin can be opened. The main systems of the craft are: Air Delivery System Oxygen Delivery System Surface Flotation System Electrical System Propulsion System Cabin & Instrumentation Cabin Life Support System Mexico Navy - TRIUMPH 1500RX Deep Ocean Research Submersible 3

10 Acrylic Cabin: The Triumph cabin provides a 1 atmosphere environment for 3 occupants and consists of two identical acrylic hemispheres mounted on to their respective upper and lower aluminum rings. The cabin rings are hinged at the front of the vessel and the upper hemisphere tilts open like a clam-shell for easy embarking and disembarking. Cabin Latch System: The Triumph cabin has 2 latch systems that in conjunction with the front hinge close the upper and lower rings together. The cabin seal is achieved by compressing the hard and soft seals located in the upper ring between the two rings. The cabin latches can be opened or closed from either the inside or outside of the cabin. Single Hoist Point: The 1500 ft rated Triumph has the option for a single hook-up hoist point located above the center of gravity for lifting the vessel, or a four-point lift system. The 3000ft model only has a four-point lift system. Lateral Thrusters: There are two Lateral thrusters that work in a push-pull fashion to allow the pilot to crab the craft sideways either left or right. Oxygen Tanks: The Triumph is equipped with external oxygen tanks used for the cabin s life support system. There are two 120 cuft tank located on the starboard side which are the main oxygen tanks used for normal operation. The two 120 cuft oxygen tanks on the port side hold the reserve oxygen. The internal O2 delivery system is redundant. Air Tanks: The Triumph is equipped with two 350 SCF air tanks (@2900 psi), one on each side of the vessel which are used for re-inflating the flotation bladders (port, star, & rear) that lift the vessel back to surface mode. Furthermore, the air tanks are used for the BCD (Buoyancy Control Device) that allows the pilot to adjust the vessel s buoyancy while underwater. These air tanks are independent of each other and offer full redundancy. Port & Starboard Flotation Bladder: In combination with the rear bladders (see Item 15) the Port and Starboard flotation bladders allow the vessel to float high above the water line and provide a freeboard of greater than 30 inches. Each bladder is a double layer design with the inner bladder available to be inflated as a reserve in case of failure by the outer bladder. Permanent Lead Weight: Permanent lead blocks are mounted at the bottom of the Port and Starboard bladder cylinders and are part of the total weight and balance of the vessel. Battery Pods: The Triumph holds three identical Battery Pods that provide the electrical power for the vessel. Each Battery Pod holds eleven batteries of which nine form a 108VDC power bank, used for propulsion and external lighting, and two form a 24VDC bank used for the instrumentation of the vessel. All three battery pods are connected in parallel in the Electronic Pod Handrail & Light Mounting Cage: The Triumph cabin is surrounded by an aluminum cage that acts as a hand rail for occupants to board the craft and also as a mounting structure for the underwater lights and their pan & tilt assemblies.

11 Underwater Lights: The Triumph is equipped with underwater lights mounted either on a pan & tilt system or on the light mounting cage directly. Each underwater light is individually controlled ON/OFF by the pilot at the pilot control station. Underwater Pan & tilt System: The Triumph is equipped with two pan and tilt systems that are individually controlled by the pilot. Upper Aft Thrusters: The Triumph is equipped with four aft thrusters of which two are located above the tail section and two are located below. The two upper aft thrusters (Port and Starboard) can be ENABLED or DISABLED separately from the other propulsion thrusters at the Pilot Control station. When ENABLED the upper Starboard and Port Thrusters function in tandem with their lower counterparts. This allows the pilot to activate either the upper row, lower row, or both in tandem. Lower Aft Thrusters: The Triumph is equipped with four aft thrusters of which two are located above the tail section and two are located below. The two Lower aft thrusters (Port and Starboard) can be ENABLED or DISABLED from the other propulsion thrusters at the Pilot Control station. When ENABLED the lower Starboard and Port Thrusters function in tandem with their upper counterparts. This allows the pilot to activate either the upper row, lower row, or both rows in tandem. Rear Flotation Bladders: In combination with the Front bladders (See Item 7) the Rear flotation bladders allow the vessel to float high above the water line and provide a freeboard greater than 30 inches. The two rear bladders are inflated and deflated together with the same control valve. Each rear bladder has a backup Reserve Rear bladder mounted in its cylinder in case of failure of the primary set. DVL Doppler Workhorse Navigator: The Triumph is equipped with a DVL Doppler Navigator which provides the pilot a dead-reckoning navigation system. The DVL Doppler locks its sonar signals on the seafloor and in combination with its flux-gate compass provides the pilot a compass heading and speed, and tracks the submersible s current position from the initial start point. Furthermore, the DVL Doppler provides the distance of the submersible from the seafloor and its pressure transducer measures the vessel s depth. The DVL Doppler data is presented on the cabin s onboard computer monitor. Forward Looking Sonar: The Triumph is equipped with a forward-looking sonar mounted at the front of the vessel and used for obstacle avoidance. The forward looking sonar data is presented on the cabin s onboard computer monitor. Observer Seats: The two forward seats in the cabin are for the two observers or co-pilots. The seating arrangement is such as to provide the best comfort and visibility through the acrylic view ports in addition to the front panel and all equipment monitoring displays in the cabin. Pilot Control Console: The center pilot control console is located in between the two copilots and in front of the pilot seat. The pilot control console holds the propulsion maneuvering joystick, Mexico Navy - TRIUMPH 1500RX Deep Ocean Research Submersible 11

12 provides the pilot access to all cabin breakers and instrumentation control switches, and presents a number of status lights Pilot Seat: The pilot seat is located in between the two co-pilot seats and the control console. The seating provides the pilot excellent field of view through the acrylic and access to all instrumentation Lead Weight Access Hatch: The Triumph s payload is normalized prior to each dive to 750lbs. All occupants are weighed prior to a dive and the difference in weight is compensated with lead blocks dropped in the lead weight compartments through these access hatches. Vertical Thrusters: The Triumph is equipped with two vertical thrusters that operate in tandem at all times to push the vessel underwater either up or down. Drop Weight System: The Triumph is equipped with a drop weight system that releases 240lbs of lead balls when activated to compensate for an emergency condition. The hydraulic drop weight system releases twelve 10lbs balls on each side of the craft simultaneously when activated by the pilot. Lead Weight Compartments: Underneath the Lead Weight Access Hatches are the compartments that hold the lead blocks that are used to normalize the vessel s payload prior to each dive. Buoy Release System: The Triumph is equipped with an emergency buoy release mechanism that the pilot can activate from inside the cabin. The buoy is attached to the submersible via a 2000 feet long spectra line (4000 ft spectra line for the 3000ft deep model) such that when released can indicate to surface the exact location of the submersible. The release mechanism can also be activated by the top side crew via an acoustic surface module. Electronic Pod: The Electronic Pod contains all the high power electronics of the submersible and also acts as the main input/output port for the external devices controlled from inside the cabin. Therefore, the battery pod power banks and the Cabin control signals are routed to the Electronic Pod from which the thrusters and external devices are activated. Thruster Pressure Oil Compensation Bladders: All of Triumph s propulsion thrusters are pressure oil compensated. The pressure compensation is achieved by four oil bladders with each bladder dedicated to two thrusters. Syntactic Foam The tail section of the Triumph consists of syntactic foam that provides the buoyancy to keep the vessel in a horizontal attitude underwater. The fiberglass tail section of the shell is filled with syntactic foam and this self standing block provides additional buoyancy. Mexico Navy - TRIUMPH 1500RX Deep Ocean Research Submersible 12

13 5. Accessories & Optional Peripherals 5.1 Recommended Accessories 1. Underwater Lighting: The submersible has 5 circuits each with its own ON/OFF switch and each switch controlling two lights for a total of 10 lights. Each of the five control circuits can provide up to 540 watts. The configuration calls for having two sets of two 150W HID lights (for a total of four 150W HID lights) and three sets of two 70W lights (for a total of six 70W HID lights). All 10 lights are interchangeable for any combination and permutation. The Proposed supplier of HID Light: Deep Sea Power and Lights Spec Sheets for 70W HID Lights found in Appendix Spec Sheets for 150W HID Lights found in Appendix Proposed Underwater Lighting Configuration 150W HID 150W HID 150W HID 150W HID 2x 70W HID 2x 70W HID 2x 70W HID Pilot Controls Set1 Set2 Set3 Set4 Set 5 Mexico Navy - TRIUMPH 1500RX Deep Ocean Research Submersible 13

14 2. Forward Looking Sonar Mounted at the front of the submersible, the proposed forward looking sonar is Tritech s Super Sea King Unit. This dual frequency sonar can operate at 675Khz for high definition up to 100m range and 300Khz for lower definition and has a range of 200m at the lower frequency. Spec Sheets for Sonar found in Appendix 3. Navigation DVL System The dead reckoning DVL system will be based on Teledyne RD Instruments Workhorse Navigator model with a 300 KHZ frequency selection providing the longest altimeter range. RDI s DVL system will have the following included: Flux Gate Compass Pressure Transducer for Depth Reading Tilt & Roll Reading Water Temperature Reading Water Salinity Reading Seafloor Depth reading (200m range) Submersible speed Spec Sheets for DVL Unit found in Appendix The DVL Navigation system provides relative positioning information, using multiple sonar beams, with respect to a known position on the seafloor. The DVL must be within 200m of the seafloor to Lock-in a fixed position. The software then provides positioning information to the pilot relative to this starting point. 4. Linkquest USBL & Underwater GPS Linkquest offers a USBL tracking system that provides the topside support ship with direct position information of the sub relative to the ship. The integral modem feature can also act as an underwater modem and be used as a backup communication link between topside and the submersible. The position of the submersible is determined by the transponder sending an omni-directional ultra short baseline signal to the topside transceiver, which calculates the submersible s position. The topside computer screen will show the GPS coordinate of the submersible and its relative position from the ship. The underwater modem feature allows topside to transmit the submersible s calculated GPS position Mexico Navy - TRIUMPH 1500RX Deep Ocean Research Submersible 14

15 back to the submersible and be displayed on the pilot s computer screen. Regular off-the-shelf ship navigation software can be used on board the submersible with the GPS data being transmitted from topside. The modem feature transmits data at an interrogation rate set by topside computer. Each time there is an interrogation request, data (either text, GPS coordinate, or both) are transmitted between topside and the submersible. Included with this package is a SEAmagine produced mobile surface station that incorporates Linkquest s surface transceiver along with a rugged computer, GPS, and compass package to act as the surface tracking station. Spec Sheet for Linquest USBL found in Appendix 5. Underwater Hydrophone Listening Systemn The Cetacean Research model CR1 hydrophone is an excellent multi-purpose hydrophone. This non-preamplified hydrophone is ideal for the detection and recording of very loud signals and it can be used with a preamplifier (such as the ART USB Dual Pre) for recording and listening to the quieter sounds of cetaceans and other underwater sources. The hydrophone comes with an extra tough waterproof polyurethane-jacketed coaxial cable. All CR1 hydrophones are individually spot calibrated. 6. USBL/GPS Tracking Surface Station The USBL tracking surface station integrates the acoustic transducer with a laptop computer that also receives inputs from a GPS receiver and an electronic compass. The station is packaged in a robust carry case that is safe and portable. The station is powered externally and can be operated aboard the ship or from a surface tender vessel. 6. Comprehensive Spare Parts: SEAmagine provides a comprehensive spare parts package intended for operations in remote locations which renders the setup self reliant for the great majority of its maintenance requirements. The spare parts package for the Triumph submersible has proven itself in operation at Cocos Island in Costa Rica. Mexico Navy - TRIUMPH 1500RX Deep Ocean Research Submersible 15

16 5.2 Additional Optional Peripherals i HD Camera System Bowtech s Surveyor High Definition (HD) underwater colour zoom camera utilises Sony s latest block camera incorporating 1/3 inch HD CMOS CCD giving exceptional picture quality, 10:1 optical zoom lens as well as horizontal resolution of 800+ TV lines. Standard video output is component however HD-SDI or a large selection of other outputs are available as options. A unique feature of this camera, apart for the exceptional picture quality, is its size. Housed in a Titanium 6000 meter rated housing with optically clear Sapphire window, the camera is no larger than a standard underwater colour zoom camera and therefore ideal for mounting on a submersible. Spec Sheet of BOWTECH SURVEYOR HD Camera Inspector found in Appendix The Pan & Tilt Unit: The proposed pan & tilt unit is also form Remote Ocean Systems. The medium size PT-10 model is sufficient for the HD Inspector camera. The P&T is controlled from the submersible s onboard computer via an RS485 control. This provides a far smoother movement of the pan & tilt as opposed to a simple on/off control. Specs Sheets for PT-10 P&T Unit found in Appendix The Video Monitor: The submersible cabin is equipped with a dedicated 8.4 inch, NEMA4, marine proof, light readable monitor identical to the onboard computer monitor. The composite video signal from the camera feeds directly to the monitor. The HD video data is fed directly in the HD data recorder described below. The monitor is identical to the onboard computer monitor. HD Video Recorder: The HD recorder is solid state and records on a hard drive that can be later downloaded on any computer for editing. Camera & Pan & Tilt Control: The came and pan & tilt controls s achieved via a wireless game pad that communicates to the submersible computer which then sends the commands to the camera and P&T unit. The wireless control will make it easy for either the pilot or passenger to control the camera. Fiber Optic Link In order to transmit a high speed HD video signal from the camera to the cabin the communication link needs to be a fiberoptic signal to pass through the hull noise free to be recorded. To achieve this, a fiberoptic camera signal is needed, which is built-in the BOWTECH camera. A small pressure vessel is used to aggregate multiple fiberoptic signals from various sources and combined into a single fourchannel fiber-optic bulkhead into the cabin. There it is converted from fiber-optic back into electrical signals for recording and display. Mexico Navy - TRIUMPH 1500RX Deep Ocean Research Submersible 16

18 2. Seven-Axis Manipulator System & Drop Assembly The proposed manipulator is the 7-Axis Hydraulic system produced by Schilling named the ORION 7P manipulator and its Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU). Spec Sheet for Orion-7P Manipulator found in Appendix The ORION 7P manipulator is a hydraulically powered arm with 7 degrees of freedom, that comes to a stowed rest configuration in the full vertical position. Note that the arm does not retract vertically any further than the 90 degree plane as shown, which is important as this keeps the arm away from the acrylic hemispheres at all times. Due to the attachment position of the manipulator, the acrylic hemispheres are always out of the range of motion of the manipulator. This arm is integrated to the submersible along with a slave controller that operates all the hydraulic valves and an oil-compensator that maintains all cables and junction boxes in a PBOF (Pressure Balanced Oil Filled) condition. One of the principal features of the arm integration to the submersible, is the ability to jettison the entire arm assembly away from the submersible in case of entanglement/failure of the arm. The design includes a customized mounting bracket, design to be released in emergency. Slave Controller ORION 7P Robotic Arm Compensator Jettisonable Mounting Bracket The HPU consists of a 5 HP electrically powered hydraulic pump and a self contained Electronic Control Unit (ECU). The system operates on 108 VDC and utilizes the same power banks as the TRIUMPH propulsion system. The Hydraulic pump feeds two connections to the arm slave controller: 1) A high pressure (up to 3000psi) supply line and 2) A return line (up to 350psi). These two hydraulic lines are serviced by two filters; a water separator and an oil filter. The system also integrates two oil compensators to maintain positive pressure to the hydraulic system and ensure the pump is always primed.

20 3. Fly-Out ROV System The proposed ROV system would be fully integrated into the submersible, using the submersibles propulsion power to operate the vehicle along a 20 m long tether. All controls will be accessible from the cabin and the video camera output is displayed on the cabin s video monitor. The ROV fly-out System will be rated to 915 m and will be design to meet ABS rules and regulations. This includes an emergency jettison system that can detach the ROV from the submersible in case of emergency. The ROV is designed with a cable cutter that can be used in Self Rescue situations. A secondary arm is added to enable the ROV to grab items underwater, using a three finger jaw grabber. The tether management system is integrated in the back of the submersible and is operated from the cabin joystick controller. An electric tether feed motor is used to feed the tether in and out as needed. 4. SEAmagine Fly-Out ROV - Core System The foundation of the SEAmagine Fly-Out system is the SEABOTIX vlbv 950 mini ROV that comprises a front housing containing the main electronics, camera(s), internal lighting and sensors. From this housing a small conduit connects the rear power pod which contains the power electronics. The power pod acts as a mounting point for the thrusters, flotation module, shells and bumper frame. Electronically the LBV uses multiple boards that each have their own purpose which include the main Motherboard, RF/Data Modulator, Fiber Optic Electronics, Video Overlay, Sensor Board and Power Supply. Powerful variable vector thruster configuration Vectored thruster configuration provides amazing control in all horizontal directions, therefore the use offshore in demanding conditions. The vlbv950 has impressive bollard thrust with kgf ( ft/lbs) forward. Thruster vector angle is variable from equal horizontal to forward optimized. Dual vertical thrusters offer greater vertical control and roll stabilization. Intuitive Hand Controller At the heart of the controls is the intuitive hand controller. The three axis joystick and proportional knob control the thrusters while the membrane keypad operates all other functions. Thruster controls are straight forward. The additional controls found on the hand controller include thruster gain settings, camera tilt, camera focus, camera switch, lighting on/off and intensity, auto heading, auto depth, accessory operation, programming and overlay position.
