Saab Seaeye’s thrusters are integrated into all manner of subsea applications from ROV, AUV and manned submarine propulsion to prime mover applications such as pumps and cleaning brushes. With simplicity and versatility in mind, the range of thrusters includes numerous innovative features that make them stand out from similar thrusters for performance, reliability and ease of maintenance. High efficiency and low weight is key to enabling vehicles that are themselves as compact and powerful as possible.
Self-contained drive electronics within the thruster housing
Proven DC brushless motor technology
Telemetry or pwm control
Rapid response and reversal rate
Fouled propeller detector and reset circuitry
Under voltage protection of the electronics
Integral pressure compensation
Made from 6082 grade aluminium, the lights are designed and manufactured to operate in the toughest conditions. With low power consumption (34-40 W), light weight, high brightness (3520 lumens) and a long life, these lights are ideal for the subsea environment. With a depth rating of 3000 msw, these lights are made to fit a variety of vehicles and are compatible with existing Saab Seaeye vehicles in the field.

Compatible with all existing Saab Seaeye vehicles
Ideal for ROV camera / light platforms and multi-beam sonars, the units are rated to 3000m. The side entry lid provides easy access for maintenance and inspection. The Pan and Tilt incorporates common units for both the pan and tilt functions, making the units easier for maintenance and fault finding. 24 VDC brushless motors drive harmonic gear modules to provide a high output torque, combined with precise control and positional feedback in a compact design. Control is via RS485 (PT35N) or Castle 2 Protocol (PT35N-C2). The housing is oil filled with an integral compensator and includes a low oil level alarm.

Robust hard-anodised aluminium body construction
Easy access for maintenance and inspection
Our connector receptacle shells, plug and mounting threads are made of high strength stainless steel and are corrosion resistant to salt spray, sea water, sand, mud, mineralised or demineralised water and hydrocarbons etc.
Watertightness and depth pressure rating have been given high priority during the design of the connectors and cable whips to ensure customer confidence in our product and improve the reliability of underwater systems that utilise them.
