i - Intelligent V - Valve P - Pack
iVP Function • The iVP is an integrated family of components offering: • Operation at depths up to 3000 metres. • Remote control of hydraulic and electrical equipment. • Collection and transmission of instrumentation datafrom the remote location, including video. • Function control, data display and storage at a controlconsole. • Available from stock parts – fast deliveries.
iVP Applications • Remotely operatedvehicle (ROV) equipment. • Intervention tooling equipment. • Remotely operated tools (ROTs). • Manifold, pipeline & other underwater structures. • ROVs requiring additional or upgraded capability (e.g. 5-function manipulator enhancement). • Tether Management Systems (TMS).
Major component options • Valve Pack hydraulic modules for flow & pressurecontrol. • Valve Pack electronics module. • Simple Power Pod for valvepackpowersupplies. • Intelligent Power Pod for enhancedpower & control.
System Block Diagram Showing All Major Options.
Valve Pack physical • Lightweight aluminium construction, fully optimised to reduce size & weight • Modular design – configured for only the required number of functions. • Oil-filled pressure compensated internals (including electronics) – with depth rating of 3000 metres. • Hydraulic connections to suit host system requirements. • Hard anodised and CP bonded for corrosion protection. • Module lids removable quickly & separately for fast service. • Orientation insensitive.
Hydraulic Features • Modular design - 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 or 12 valves per valve pack. • Proportional directional valves give flow control from surface duringoperations withoutthe need for fixed flow throttles. • Flexible hydraulic specification offering: • Proportional or fixed flow directional valves in 2 flow sizes. • 1 or 2 separate pressure inputs, up to 315 bar. • Pressure control stages. • Service line relief valves for actuator / equipment protection. • Optional pilot operated check valves. • Optional hydraulic pressure transducers.
Electronics features • Embedded processors for instant boot-up and reliability. • Integrated communications link over 5.5km of twisted pair. • Software configurable mapping of console inputs to remoteunderwateroutputs (valve pack or power pod). • External sensors on both valve pack and power pod are supported(e.g. analogue, digital, CP, tacho, Torque Transducer). • Integrated embedded PC in console for display and user interface. • Video text overlay built into console. • System settings can be stored for configured operations. • Task specific settings can be saved and recalled. • Scaleable and upgradeable control system – from ‘dumb’ valve pack tocomplete control system. • Fully self contained system that does not rely upon the use of external computers.
