About this file

This is a Salient Characteristics document (S26013) for remote control systems designed to convert Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCPs) into unmanned surface vehicles (USVs). The procurement specifies two distinct kits: one for Teledyne RD Instruments StreamPro ADCPs and one for RiverRay/RiverPro ADCPs, each to be delivered to separate California Water Science Center, USGS locations.

The StreamPro kit must include a propulsion system with thrusters, a communication/power module, hand-held remote control with display and joystick, rechargeable batteries with chargers, mounting hardware, and cabling. Operating requirements include a maximum speed of at least 5.0 feet per second and cruise speed of at least 3 feet per second, with a 2.4 GHz transmitter providing 300-foot communication range and minimum 1.5 hours continuous runtime at cruising speed. The RiverRay/RiverPro kit has similar components and features but higher performance specifications: maximum speed of at least 9.5 feet per second and cruise speed of at least 4.5 feet per second. Both kits must be tool-free to assemble without modifications to the ADCP float, include ruggedized shockproof transport cases, and meet all specified technical requirements. Delivery destinations are: StreamPro kit to 716 W. Cedar Street, Unit E, Eureka, CA 95501 (Attn: Travis Apo) and RiverRay/RiverPro kit to 8550 23rd Avenue, Sacramento, CA 95826 (Attn: Eric Lindbloom).

Salient Characteristics

S26013

Remote Control Systems for Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCP’s)

SALIENT CHARACTERISTICS:

1 ea. Remote Control System for Teledyne RD Instruments StreamPro Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler

(ADCP’s):

1. Shall consist of a kit that allows ADCP flotation devices to be converted to a remote controlled, unmanned surface vehicle (USV) system.

2. The kit shall be compatible with the Teledyne RD Instruments StreamPro ADCP.

3. The kit, at a minimum, shall include a propulsion system (thrusters), a communication/power module with cable connections to thrusters, a hand-held remote control, rechargeable batteries/charger(s) for each ADCP, mounting hardware, and cabling.

4. When converted, the ADCP shall be capable of the following remotely controlled operating speeds:

- maximum speed of least 5.0 ft./sec. and cruise speed of at least 3 ft/sec.

5. Remote control shall be hand-held and include a display and joystick.

6. System shall include a 2.4 GHz transmitter with a communication range of at least 300 ft.

7. Shall be capable of operating from rechargeable battery packs capable of powering the unit for at least

1.5 hours of continuous run-time at cruising speed.

8. Shall not require any special tools, adapters, or modifications to the ADCP float, for assembly.

9. Shall include ruggedized, shockproof, case(s) for transporting all conversion kit components.

1 ea. Remote Control System for Teledyne RD Instruments RiverRay/RiverPro (RR/RP) ADCP’s:

10. Shall consist of a kit that allows ADCP flotation devices to be converted to a remote controlled, unmanned surface vehicle (USV) system.

11. The kit shall be compatible with the Teledyne RD Instruments River Ray/RiverPro ADCP’s.

12. The kit, at a minimum, shall include a propulsion system (thrusters), a communication/power module, a hand-held remote control, rechargeable batteries/charger(s) for each ADCP, mounting hardware, and cabling.

13. When converted, the ADCP’s shall be capable of the following remotely controlled operating speeds:

- maximum speed of at least 9.5 ft./sec. and cruise speed of at least 4.5 ft/sec.

14. Remote control shall be hand-held and include a display and joystick.

15. System shall include a 2.4 GHz transmitter with a communication range of at least 300 ft.

16. Both versions shall be capable of operating from rechargeable battery packs capable of powering the unit for at least 1.5 hours of continuous run-time at cruising speed.

17. Shall not require any special tools, adapters, or modifications to the ADCP float, for assembly.

18. Shall include ruggedized, shockproof, case(s) for transporting all conversion kit components.
