CHASING E-reel-200m(Without cables） (CM2ER)

Description

The CHASING CM2ER Electronic Tether Reel (E-Reel) is a rechargeable automatic tether management system designed for compatible CHASING M2, M2 S, and M2 Pro underwater remotely operated vehicles (ROVs). Developed to simplify underwater operations, this electronic winder automatically retrieves the ROV's tether, reducing the time and physical effort required for manual cable handling after a mission.

With a storage capacity of up to 200 meters (656 feet) of tether, the E-Reel is suitable for underwater inspection, marine observation, infrastructure surveys, and other applications that require extended tether deployment. It features three retrieval speed settings, allowing operators to select a suitable winding speed according to their operational needs. Depending on the selected speed and operating conditions, a full retrieval can take approximately 3.6 to 9 minutes.

Powered by a rechargeable 4800 mAh battery, the CM2ER supports up to 30 retrieval operations per full charge under specified conditions. Its IP65-rated enclosure provides protection against dust ingress and water jets, making it suitable for splash-prone environments such as boat decks and shore-based operations when used according to the manufacturer's guidelines. The reel also supports manual tether unwinding and retraction, providing additional flexibility when automatic operation is not required.

Technical Details

Compatible with CHASING M2-Series Underwater ROVs:

The CM2ER E-Reel is designed for use with compatible CHASING M2, M2 S, and M2 Pro underwater ROV systems. It helps streamline tether handling during deployment and recovery, making it a practical accessory for professional underwater inspection and observation workflows.

Automatic Tether Retrieval:

The electronic winding mechanism automatically retrieves the tether after an underwater mission, reducing the need for operators to reel in the cable manually. This helps simplify equipment recovery and makes repeated deployment and retrieval more convenient.

200-Meter Tether Capacity:

The E-Reel can store and manage up to 200 meters (656 feet) of compatible tether. This capacity supports underwater operations that require long cable deployment while helping keep the tether organized during retrieval and storage.

Three Adjustable Retrieval Speeds:

Featuring three retrieval speed settings, the CM2ER allows operators to choose a suitable winding speed for their working conditions. The specified retrieval time ranges from approximately 3.6 to 9 minutes, depending on the selected speed and operating conditions.

Rechargeable 4800 mAh Battery:

The integrated 4800 mAh rechargeable battery powers the electronic retrieval mechanism without requiring continuous external power during operation. A full charge can support up to 30 retrievals under specified conditions, helping reduce interruptions during repeated underwater missions.

Designed for Repeated Use:

The battery is specified for a lifespan of approximately 300 charge cycles. Actual battery performance and lifespan may vary according to charging practices, storage conditions, usage patterns, and environmental factors.

IP65 Dust and Water Protection:

The E-Reel features an IP65 protection rating, indicating protection against dust ingress and water jets under specified testing conditions. This makes it suitable for splash-prone working environments, including boat decks and shore-based operations. IP65 does not indicate suitability for underwater immersion.

Manual Tether Handling:

In addition to automatic retrieval, the CM2ER supports manual tether unwinding and retraction. This provides flexibility for handling the tether when operators prefer manual control or when automatic winding is not required.

Improved Equipment Recovery and Organization:

By combining automatic retrieval, multiple speed settings, and substantial tether capacity, the E-Reel helps simplify cable management after underwater operations. It is particularly useful for operators who regularly deploy and recover their ROVs across inspection, survey, and marine observation tasks.
