[PSUBS-MAILIST] Power System for New MBARI ROV

[Steven Mills <cirtemoeg@juno.com>]

"ABSTRACT:
MBARI is currently developing a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) capable
of 4000 m depth and designed exclusively for support of oceanographic
research. Performance and operational requirements led to an all electric
design for the basic core vehicle. The vehicle's electric power system,
described in this paper, delivers 15 kW to the various onboard loads, and
allocates power using preset priorities when demand exceeds supply.
Features of the power system include ground fault and overcurrent
detection, switch isolation of all loads, motor regeneration control, and
limited dual redundancy. A novel transformer cooling scheme minimizes
acoustic emissions from the main power transformer"
