Variable depth sonar cables for submarines

DeRegt Marine Cables has seen great success in variable depth sonar. Submarines operate at different depths and to keep track of where they are, variable depth sonar cables are raised and lowered as they are towed.

DeRegt Marine Cables’s custom engineered cables are strong, sturdy yet small enough to enable efficient data and power transmission whilst surviving repeated duty cycles over long periods, and typically in very harsh conditions.

Tactical sonar applications for the defence industry

Tactical sonar applications demand a greater variety of quality datasets too. This involves gathering the data more effectively by widening the scope of the towed system and employing different techniques in order to vary the depth and range of signals to keep track with the target.

Advanced communications and power transmissions must also be integrated into the cable construction. Increased loading on vessel winch systems and dynamic factors affecting the overall integrity of the cable systems now become a critical consideration.

DeRegt Marine Cables have met this challenge, engineering new manufacturing techniques that reduce the overall diameter and improve the efficiency of the towed systems, through a combination of advanced materials, methodologies and hi-tec signal components.

Surface and subsea cable design capability

The company’s engineering design departments include all the disciplines required for the specification, design and draughting of cable systems for subsea and surface applications, as they boast in excess of 80 years’ combined experience.

Multi-skilled field service engineers

DeRegt Marine Cables’ crew of multi-skilled field service engineers is being expanded. This reflects the upward importance of short-time mobilisation. JDR’s service department comprises a versatile engineering team. They offer knowledge on all types of cable assemblies, in combination with the latest European offshore safety and survival training.

Quality assurance

DeRegt Marine Cables is committed to the principles and practice of quality assurance and has adopted management systems and procedures covering all aspects of manufacturing and design. The ability to manufacture finished products, in-house, from basic raw materials, combined with strict controls developed over many years, gives the company an unrivalled ability to satisfy its customers. DeRegt Marine Cables is fully approved to ISO 9001-2000 and AQAP 110.
