RV "KRONPRINS HAAKON": POWER REQUIREMENTS, FOR UPS <back to main page>


Back to RV "Kronprins Haakon" main GEO page

INTRODUCTION


This is an estimate of power requirement of seismic equipment in "IKT CENTRAL" (7th deck), during 2D seismic data collection, in relation to UPS dimensioning.

POWER REQUIREMENTS


SYSTEM REPRESENTATIVE BRAND/MODEL DOC POWER CONSUMPTION HOW CERTAIN?
Airgun control system Teledyne Real Time Systems
"HotShot"
-
  • 1 A / 230 Vac => 230 W
(From markings above power connector]
Streamer depth control ("Birds") ION GEO DigiBird -
  • Laptop (in "IKT-central" 7th deck): 50 W
  • "Birds" are powered by their own batteries
Fair estimate
Streamer Geometrics
GeoEel Digital Streamer
Data sheet
  • 0.6W/channel * 240 channels = 144 W
Value from data sheet.
Seismic recording Geometrics CNT-2 controller + laptop -
  • CNT-2 Controller: 10 W
  • Laptop: 50 W
Fair estimate
Magnetometer Geometrics G-882 Link
  • Towfish with sensor: 24-32Vdc supply, 0.5A (stable) => 15 W
  • Power supply, own consumption: 5 W
Fairly good estimate
Gravity meter L&R sensor, ZLS electronics Link
  • Laptop (in "IKT-central" 7th deck): 50 W
  • Graviy meter proper (separate room 2nd deck): 400 W
Accurate estimate
TOTAL POWER CONSUMPTION (adding numbers in yellow): 230+50+144+10+50+15+5+50 = 554 W
