Description
Seascape ROV Systems SEPIA-X8 is a powerful, battery-driven omnidirectional inspection ROV designed for demanding professional operations. Equipped with eight high-performance thrusters, it delivers exceptional manoeuvrability, stability and control in challenging underwater environments. Its rugged, impact-resistant HDPE body protects all critical BlueRobotics components, including the electronics housing, batteries, thrusters, and lighting systems, ensuring reliability when it matters most.
The advanced vector 8-thruster configuration enables precise and powerful horizontal and vertical movement with tilt option (max. 89°) via a hand controller and smooth rotation, while having outstanding stability during operation. The result is accurate positioning and confident handling, even in dynamic conditions.
Powered by two easily replaceable rear-mounted batteries with a total capacity of 1200 Wh, the SEPIA-X8 offers impressive endurance. Depending on operating conditions, it delivers 2 to 6 hours of runtime and can maintain position for up to 2 hours in currents of 1.6 knots (0.8 m/s). With a maximum speed of 3.5 to 4 knots (1.7 to 2 m/s), it combines power with efficiency.
The SEPIA-X8 has a payload of 1 kg, making it mission-ready and future-proof, with dedicated expansion bays for optional add-ons including Multibeam Sonar, Imaging Scanning Sonar, USBL, GPS, Gripper, Cavitation Cleaning Lance, NDT Thickness Gauge and a Gimbal camera.
SEPIA-X8 is controlled via Cockpit, a modern, intuitive, customizable and cross-platform control interface.
NOTE: SEPIA-X8 is a custom-built product of SEASCAPE ROV SYSTEMS. The standard configuration comes WITHOUT a tether, hand controller, control interface, or tablet/PC extra add-ons.
Please note: SEPIA-X8 shown in the images has the Multi-Beam Sonar and Gimbal camera installed as add-ons, but these are NOT included in the standard configuration.
