Ultra Electronics- USSI Announces HyperSpike HS-18 Remote AHD Order to Protect Oil & Gas Assets

July 23, 2012 - PRLog -- Columbia City, Indiana – Ultra Electronics – USSI announces today that it has received an order for our HS-18 Remote Acoustic Hailing Device (RAHD) product to protect Oil & Gas assets in Australia. Integrated with multiple sensor systems, the HS-18 RAHD creates a comprehensive security solution that will include a high-power spotlight and a custom thermal sensor; the latter integrated into the HyperSpike HS-18 OptiPort.

The RAHD is co-developed and manufactured by Ultra Electronics – USSI and MOOG, Inc. and is a critical tool  used in the  escalation of force measures and security application to the gas and oil assets. The proven QuickSet® pan & tilt quickly and accurately directs the patented HyperSpike HS-18 and any integrated sensor. The system can quickly identify targets, query them up to 1500 meters, and determine intent while keeping security personnel unexposed and safe. Targets can be detected and engaged in any environment, including high heat and cold, common to energy industry installations.

“The RAHD is ideal for the high-security needs of the Oil & Gas companies,” remarked Thomas Link, VP of Audio Products at USSI, “We are receiving more orders for AHD systems as the industry recognizes the value of AHDs in determining intent. The fully-customizable RAHD is ideal since it can incorporate thermal, optical and other sensors increasing the effectiveness of security personnel at protecting high value assets.”

Delivery of the completed order is expected in October of 2012.
