Replace the current hydraulic tools and power packs that have been in use by sub-sea divers for many years.
The FlexPAQ system is designed to replace the current hydraulic tools and power packs that have been in use by subsea divers for many years. To reduce the pollution of our oceans by the release of hydraulic and other oil-based fluids many companies are switching from hydraulic to electric systems for their underwater equipment, and the FlexPAQ system provides a cleaner and more diver-friendly alternative to the traditional hydraulic power supply to those tools.
In the battery model it is completely self-contained, with the battery situated within the pod running the tools as well as auxiliary power for lights etc. This can be recharged using available AC power through a
waterproof plug built into the pod when the unit is out of the water. In the externally powered version, a cable from an ROV, ship or from the shore (for harbour/inshore use) connects to the pod and an internal transformer converts it from the AC input (110vAC up to 3 phase 3,000vAC supply) to the DC voltage required for the motor, its control systems and the auxiliary output.
