RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Sub launched ROV

Frank,
 
   Yes.
 
   We need to know the limitations of this enclosure. According to Jon, the perspec or plexiglass of this thickeness and the flat surface diameter involved should fail below 600 feet. This is the weakest item as far as I can tell. This "dummy" enclosure has been modified to have the metal back plane as this was found to be problematic with a second wafer of plexiglass. This particular unit, although void of purpose as a hydrophone or camera assembly, should present to us the overall capabilities of this small but inexpensive housing.

Sounds good David. I assume we will be testing this "dummy" enclosure to destruction? I'll make sure to document pressures, time intervals, and anything else you think is helpful. Frank D.
