ACTIVE HEAVE COMPENSATION (AHC) SYSTEMS

TENSA offers a series of standard AHC system as part of our overall AHC product capability. By adopting control systems that have been fully debugged and proven in the field for over 10 years we are now able to make AHC affordable and deliverable in reasonable time frames without compromising product and service quality. STANDARD AHC PRODUCT RANGE AHC-H series - Hydraulic AHC winch systems AHC-E series - Electric AHC winch systems AHC-I series - In-line flying sheave systems APPLICATIONS Oil & Gas - Subsea Installation. Oil & Gas - Subsea facilities maintenance Geotechnical & maritime - ROV Oceanographic Navy STANDARD OPERATING MODES TENSA AHC system can be operated in any of the following standard modes Manual control mode Constant Tension mode Active Heave Compensation mode

AHC H Series Hydraulic Winch The standard TENSA AHC-H series winch can be used with wire rope or umbilical. It has a hollow shaft and the capability to accommodate slip rings. This allows the operator to mobilize the AHC winch to any vessel for different applications (e.g. ROV) if necessary. The intelligent level wind will automatically accommodate different wire or umbilical sizes. The HPU can be combined with the winch or supplied separately.
