GeoSpectrum Technologies CSW-10 winch

The GeoSpectrum Technologies CSW-10 is purpose-built for integration into GeoSpectrum’s Portable Acoustic Target (PAT) launch-and-recovery rig.  It is not sold as a standalone winch.

Special features on this winch include:

    • Levelwind-mounted sheave to facilitate using the winch in close proximity to the PAT rig’s A-frame sheave
    • Drum-driven encoder and PLC integrated into the eletrical cabinet for calculating and displaying deployed cable length and line speed
    • Cable payout limits to prevent excessive payout or pay-in
    • “Dual control” with operator controls toggleable between local winch-mounted joystick and 50m wired remote “belly pack” controller with joystick and secondary cable payout display PLC
    • Expanded electrical cabinet with extra room for GeoSpectrum to mount their own electronics for the LAR rig
    • Friction slip clutch to automatically slip and disengage drivetrain when loads exceed winch’s capability range
