The Split Heavy-Duty ROV LARS separates the winch and the A-frame, so each can be placed where the deck allows rather than on a shared base. Both are rated at a 16 t safe working load with a matched dynamic factor of 2.3.
The winch carries 1500 m of 48 mm umbilical cable in no more than 8 layers, with a brake load of 42 t. The A-frame has a clear width between the two arms of ≥5.4 m, an overboard reach of ≥7500 mm and an inboard reach of ≥5000 mm, with a maximum height from the anti-sway unit to the base of ≥4.5 m.
The anti-sway unit has a 2000 mm stroke and rotates ±120°. The ROV contact surface is 1.8 m in diameter, the sheave swings ±15°, and the clamping force applied to the ROV is ≥2 t. The system is designed and supplied by OCEAN PHYSICS.
