Up to 4 knot current Azimuthal thrust 4 x 17 kgf 30 kg payload capacity Depth rating 500 m The TortugaXP4 ROV is a 500 m depth rated underwater inspection robot. Each one of the 4 horizontal thrusters develops a 17 kgf thrust and is fitted with an unique azimuthal control system that allows operating the ROV in strong current conditions up to 4 knots, regardless of the direction. Thanks to its 4 vertical thrusters, the TortugaXP4 offers a payload capacity of 30 kg allowing the simultaneous integration of numerous sensors and bulky accessories. Its unrivalled thrust to weight ration and its fully integrated acoustic imaging solution are making TortugaXP4 the ultimate vehicle for underwater inspections in harsh operational conditions (low visibility, strong currents, long range inspections, etc.). TortugaXP4 is powered by 4 horizontal thrusters with azimuthal control and 4 vertical thrusters for pitch and roll control. Thanks to an innovative communication protocol, the ROV tether has a reduced diameter (9.5mm) to minimize drag and optimize inspection range. HYDRODYNAMIC DESIGN TortugaXP4 innovative form factor inspired from AUV design allows enhanced navigation capabilities and increased inspection range.
