Seawork newcomer Imenco has delivered a new state-of-the-art advanced Diver Communication System.
The Nautronix DSP Helium Speech Unscrambler is a fully digital design and utilises the latest and most modern processing systems to provide the highest speech intelligibility.
The physical properties of the high pressure Heliox (helium-oxygen) atmosphere produce significant changes in the speech generation mechanism for a resident diver, which at deeper depths results in largely unintelligible speech.
Modules are available for wet diver, dry diver, tender control, power, entertainment, record and unscrambler. Full control of the system is provided via the tender module, where communication ‘groups’ are set up. A group can consist of any number of modules and allows divers at different depths to communicate clearly.
Other innovative features include a design with no electronics at the diver end, noise and electrical pick-up cancelling circuitry, built in breathing noise reduction, and full integration to the Imenco Nautronix Emergency Through Water Communication System.
Iain MacLeod, Project Manager, said, “It is always great to see a new customer recognising the quality and reliability of our dive communication equipment as well as the service provided by Imenco. It was fantastic that the team at Imenco were able to pull this together and deliver in a shortened timescale fitting in with the customer’s requirements.”
Established in 1979 as an engineering company, Imenco is now a group of companies working mainly in five main business areas: offshore oil & gas, offshore renewables, aquaculture, marine & naval and industrial. Imenco continuously develop products and systems for the marine sector, especially related to subsea operations. Imenco will exhibit at Seawork for the first time in 2025.
