Rating and load qualifications
- Hull construction is unresolved: the feature description lists aluminum alloy + polyester fiber, while the table lists polyethylene + aluminum alloy.
- 180 L and 16 L are volumes. The 200 kg net weight and 400 kg maximum payload have separate source meanings; battery and load definitions need clarification.
- Endurance, speed, spreading width and communication ranges are separate manufacturer records with incomplete test conditions. Metric values are authoritative; imperial conversions are approximate.
Technical source: Aqua Helpers HIPPO manufacturer brochure (河马宣传版_EN); source records retained with material conflict.
On small screens, values wrap within the table. Manufacturer metric values remain authoritative.

| Feed hopper capacity | 180 L / ≈47.6 US gal Configuration notesVolume only. Feed density and usable fill are unconfirmed; no conversion to kilograms. |
| Dosing tank capacity | 16 L / ≈4.2 US gal Configuration notesA separate tank volume, not additional hopper mass. |
| Feed system | Automatic mixing; centrifugal spreading Configuration notesCompatible pellet types, dosing setup and calibration must be confirmed. |
| Propulsion | Brushed motor + paddle-wheel drive Configuration notesSix-blade paddle-wheel design is described by the manufacturer; power and exact drive supply scope to confirm. |
| Endurance | 6 h Configuration notesFull test conditions are not supplied. Not a maximum-load or simultaneous maximum-speed guarantee. |
| Operating speed | 2 m/s / ≈4.5 mph Configuration notesListed independently of endurance and feed dispensing conditions; not a rated current limit. |
| Paddle-wheel speed | 120 r/min Configuration notesManufacturer table record; operating and load conditions to confirm. |
| Maximum draft | 250 mm / ≈9.8 in Configuration notesConfirm actual loading and minimum water depth for the site. |
| Operating modes | Full-Auto / Manual Configuration notesControl software, route functions and operator arrangements to confirm. |
| Waterproof rating | IP55 Configuration notesManufacturer table rating; applicable test report and scope not verified. Not a submerged-operation rating. |
| HD camera and image transmission | Equipped — manufacturer description Configuration notesBrochure describes an underwater HD camera. Actual camera, interface and included controller to confirm. |
| Operating frequencies | 1.4 GHz / 2.4 GHz Configuration notesSelected radio hardware and local frequency permissions must be checked for the destination market. |
| Image transmission range | 2 km / ≈1.2 mi Configuration notesNominal manufacturer record, not guaranteed site coverage. |
| Data transmission range | 5 km / ≈3.1 mi Configuration notesSeparate from image range; hardware, obstruction and operating conditions to confirm. |
| Battery | 2 units of 24 V lead-acid batteries Configuration notesCapacity, wiring, charger and runtime conditions unconfirmed. Two units do not establish total system voltage. |

| Pellet integrity — manufacturer claim | Up to 97% Configuration notesManufacturer promotional figure without complete test method or feed/configuration conditions; not an independently verified result. |
Task and integration scope
Applications and configuration
The brochure describes six-blade paddle-wheel propulsion. This illustration explains the drive concept, not measured thrust, on-site performance or a confirmed delivered assembly.
Application scope
Aquaculture pellet feeding
A vessel-based option for mixing and spreading pellet feed. Confirm pellet dimensions, density, dosing sequence, farm layout and required control arrangement.
Farm observation and monitoring
The manufacturer describes an underwater camera and instrument integration. Exact sensors, power, data interfaces and monitoring outputs must be specified; instruments are not all standard.
Selection limits
Do not select by hopper volume alone. Confirm the unresolved hull material and load basis, local radio requirements, usable water depth, feed compatibility and handling needs. No guaranteed feed savings, productivity increase or universal farm suitability is stated.
Documented vehicle equipment
Feed handling
180 L feed hopper, 16 L dosing tank and automatic mixing are documented. Feed compatibility, usable fill and final dispensing components require confirmation.
Vehicle and control
Paddle-wheel drive, automatic/manual modes, HD camera and image transmission are listed. Actual controller, radio, software, batteries and charger remain part of the quotation scope.
Optional equipment and integration
Monitoring instruments
The platform supports instrument integration in the manufacturer's description. List required measurements and instrument models; no universal compatibility or automatic inclusion is established.
Feed and control configuration
Agree pellet suitability, dosing settings, radio frequency, control endpoint and battery/charging equipment before order confirmation.
Interfaces to confirm
Provide pellet size/type/density, farm and cage geometry, required dosing, water depth, current, launch arrangements and destination country. Sensor fit, electrical/data interfaces and feed handling have not been independently validated for arbitrary equipment or feed.
A brochure equipment reference is not a final delivery list. Specify each instrument, controller and accessory in the quotation.
Procurement record
Quotation and compliance
Aqua Robot Supply coordinates the selected configuration and order terms with the manufacturer. The following purchasing terms have not yet been confirmed for this model.
- MOQ / samples
- Not confirmed; discuss order quantity and sample availability.
- Lead time / stock
- Not confirmed; obtain a project-specific availability and delivery quotation.
- Packing / shipment
- Confirm shipping mass, dimensions, battery transport and destination requirements.
- Warranty / support
- Terms, recipients and scope remain to be agreed with the quoted configuration.
Model-applicable certificates
No verified model-applicable certificate or certificate number is on file. IP55 is a manufacturer table rating, not proof of applicable market approval. Radio, battery and equipment compliance require confirmation.
