RUFUS Swim 3 is a top-level swimming timing system built according to FINA standards and affordable to any pool.
The central unit is the device that handles the reference clock for every race. It's responsible for centralizing all the times coming from the different lane units and sensors, and then sending them to the central PC where they are processed in real time by the timing software.
With battery and internal memory, you are protected from any unforeseen power outage.
The start unit brings together all the necessary functionalities to start a swimming race: judge control, speaker and flashlight. It's connected to the central unit and it's operated by the start judge.
Like the central unit, it also has an internal battery that protects you from any unforeseen power outage.
The judge control is operated by the start judge and it's directly connected to the start unit. It has a microphone for giving the 'take you mark' command and a start button for starting the race and the timing clock in the central unit.
The judge control also has a multicolored led indicator, giving the start judge information about the status of the race.
Red: Race control is with the PC operator.
The race is not ready to start.
Green: Race control is with start judge.
The race is now ready to start.
Blue: Race has started. If the start button is pressed again at this moment the false start signal sound and the race will stop.
The lane units are responsible for handlings the different touches coming from the swimming pool. One unit is needed per lane and per touch side.
In each unit you can connect:
1 x touchpad, 1 x backup push button, 1 x relaypad.
All lane units are interconected and connect directly to the central unit. They are numbered automatically and powered up by the central unit.
They do not need batteries.
Our touchpads - or touch panels - are constructed of AISI-316 stainless steel with electropolished finish according to FINA standars and sizes. They have two tapeswitch sensors strategically located at the back to guarantee full sensitivity across the surface, at a lower cost. They are connected to the lane unit.
The caddy is the idel partner for transporting and storing the touchpads.
They are produced in three different sizes to fit 10 touchpads of any dimension.
They are constructed of AISI-316 stainless steel with electropolished.
The timer pushbutton is connected to the lane unit and is responsible for manual backup during the timing of a an event. It's operated by the finish judge and is pressed in the final touch of the race to take the final time in case the swimmer misses the touch of the touchpanel.
The relaypad -or relay judging plataform- is connected to the lane unit and provides information on reaction times at the start of a race and false start during a relay competitions. They are specially made for each customer and they can fit any current starting podium.
