Equipment rental to supply an EdgeTech 2050-DSS Combined Tri-SS (230/540/850 kHz) and SBP (2-16 kHz) Sonar with Magnetometer Interface and Starmux Topside. Comes with 15-meter topside to winch deck cable, 15-meter on-deck test cable, USB drive containing Discover control software, and wooden shipping crate.

The EdgeTech 2050-DSS is the latest product to combine EdgeTech’s highly successful line of side scan sonars and sub-bottom profilers into one fully integrated system. This is especially useful where high resolution sub-bottom profiler data, that requires the system to be towed near the seabed, is required.

The 2050-DSS is a tri-frequency side scan sonar system, where any two, operator selectable, frequencies can be operated simultaneously. The system can be provided with either a 120, 410 & 850 kHz towfish, or a 230, 540 & 850 kHz towfish. Both towfish options are equipped with a 2-16 kHz sub-bottom profiler, that utilizes a PVDF panel receive hydrophone. Use of an area based receive hydrophone panel provides improved beam patterns and therefore improved signal to noise ratio’s, which in turn means cleaner data.

A standard System comes complete with a combined towfish, digital telemetry that runs over a single coaxial cable, a 19 inch rack mount topside interface, and EdgeTech’s DISCOVER acquisition software. The 2000 Series System can be integrated with a number of auxiliary sensors such as magnetometer, depth, altitude and USBL responder. Additionally, an interface is fitted to the electronics so that the electronics and sensors can be mounted onto an ROV.

For requirements that call for combined side scan sonar and sub-bottom profiling incorporating lower frequency sub-bottom transducers and optional bathymetry EdgeTech offers the 2300 and 2300 with Bathymetry Combined systems.
