Simrad PI50

Real-time catch monitoring system

The Simrad PI50 is an advanced real-time catch monitoring system for trawl and purse seine equipment. The PI50 system is no longer maintained. It has evolved into the PX15, PX70 and PX90 systems that offer new technology and added functionality. Refer to the relevant pages for more information.

User-Friendly Interactive Display

The Simrad PI50 catch monitoring system boasts a new user interface with a menu system available in multiple languages, ensuring ease of use for a wide range of operators. Equipped with a new PI50 Receiver unit, the system's innovative technology runs on a personal computer and works with standard color displays. It is also prepared for wide screens (16:9), enhancing the visual experience for the user.

Optimizing Fishing Efficiency

In order to fish efficiently, it is important to know how your gear behaves in the sea. The Simrad PI50 system provides you with essential information. This can be the stability of the trawl doors, the amount and quality of your catch, the behavior of your bottom or pelagic trawl, or the correct timing of a purse seine. Accurate and timely data is crucial for the success and efficiency of fishing operations.

Advanced Sensor Integration

A large selection of wireless sensors is available for the Simrad PI50. Placed on the trawl, purse seine or Danish seine, they will provide valuable and accurate information about the gear, its behavior, and the environment. The sensor system can monitor various parameters, including Depth, Spread, Height, Temperature, and Geometry. Large, clear digits on the display offer instant feedback from the gear, with the option to open multiple graphs to view the recent movements of selected sensors.
