U-Boat Worx continues to conquer the seas and oceans with Li-Ion battery

It is time to sink to the bottom of the sea, where electricity has penetrated quite a long time, ranging from the literary character of Jules Verne's Captain Nemo with his Nautilus to modern submersibles and submarines, which are based on the motor as the most convenient and safe way to drive these devices.

Company U-Boat Worx, specializing in the construction of small manned underwater vehicles for commercial and private use, already has some history. It was established in Oosterhout (Netherlands) in 2005, Burt Hatmana, and to date, has occupied one of leading places in given segment of market. C 2013 investor U-Boat Worx is a company Limited Exa Malaysian tycoon tan Sri lim Kok Tay, controlling powerful Asian conglomerate Genting Group.

U-Boat Worx under the leadership of Bert Houtman developed a number of innovative projects of the manned submersible. After the first generation created by this company of a family of submersibles C-Quester (a maximum of two or three men and a diving depth up to 100 meters), 2010, conducted a manufacturing apparatus of a new generation of a family of C-Explorer (with a capacity of two, three or five people and immersion depth from 100 to 300 meters catamaran with the original architecture and set of durable acrylic sphere. Currently, U-Boat Worx developed a number of types of apparatus — the "luxury" HP Sport Sub 2 (double) and Super Yacht Sub 3 (triple).

Currently, the company announced the extension has become a popular research line of mini-submarines - C-Researcher, equipping them with "smart" battery for longer underwater.

The performance of the new lithium-ion battery up to 350% higher than that of lead-acid analogues and is 62 kWh., He successfully passed testing at depths up to 4000 meters and secured a stay under the water 2 times longer than the previously developed deep-sea research submarines.

Thanks to these power sources, the submarine is required twice less time to dive, and, consequently, have more time to stay in a submerged position.

Research line C-Researcher is represented by five models, starting with the "2-500". The second number indicates the depth of immersion of the apparatus is 500 metres away. Have a double model "2-2000" this figure is 4 times more. Triple a model designed to dive to a depth of 480, 1100 and 1700 meters.

Compared to competitors, U-Boat Worx has magnificent almost panoramic view of what is already appreciated by underwater tourists, including Vladimir Putin, who has made 18 August 2015 on one of the submarines of the C-Explorer 3 dive to the bottom of the Balaklava Bay of the Black sea off the Crimean coast to a depth of 82 meters to the sunken Byzantine ships, presumably dated X-XI centuries.

New submarine C-Research come to market in the 2nd quarter of 2018. While there are no details on pricing at this stage, but the tourist model in the retail trade are more than 2 million US $ . published
