Description

ENABLING SURVEYS IN DIVERSE WATER CONDITIONS
The semi-recessed motor and innovative internal rotor motor design provide the APACHE 3 Pro with a shallower draft, enhancing the USV’s ability to navigate different water depths. The motor design provides extra protection, reducing the risk of damage and ultimately extending the motor’s service life.
LIGHTWEIGHT DESIGN
The APACHE 3 Pro is constructed from macromolecular polyester carbon fiber and Kevlar glass fiber, resulting in a remarkably light weight of only 10 kg (excluding sensors). This design allows a single operator to effortlessly manage a variety of remote deployment scenarios, ensuring versatility and ease of use in a wide range of operating conditions.

The APACHE 3 Pro is a compact, professional unmanned surface vehicle (USV) designed for autonomous bathymetric surveys in shallow waters. Its double-layer carbon fiber hull provides exceptional impact resistance and unsinkability. The IP67 rating guarantees dust and water tightness, protecting on-board components under all circumstances. The semi-recessed motor reduces water resistance, improves endurance, and allows speeds up to 6 m/s.

The Apache3 Pro GNSS RTK + Inertial navigation system ensures highly accurate measurements even when the GNSS signal is temporarily interrupted, such as when navigating under a bridge. The built-in CHCNAV D270 echosounder provides the most reliable and accurate depth measurements at all times.

In addition to the standard package that includes the USV, single-beam echosounder and RTK GNSS/INS sensors, the Apache 3 Pro USV can be equipped with water analysis probes to measure water quality parameters such as pH, temperature, conductivity, dissolved oxygen and more. This data can be used by environmental scientists and hydrographers.
