Product Description

Equipment rental to supply a towed EdgeTech 2300B Tri-Frequency Side Scan Sonar 230/540/850 KHZ with 540 KHZ 3D Bathy & High-Resolution Sub-Bottom Profiler Towfish System fully integrated with a Rovins 3000 Inertial Navigation System to include USBL positioning, and depth sensor.

The 2300 combines EdgeTech’s highly successful line of side scan sonars, subbottom profilers and, in the case of the 2300B, MPES bathymetry into one fully integrated system.

The system builds on EdgeTech’s proven sonar technology in a number of ways. The system is ideal for deep water combined sonar operations and provides enhancements to traditional systems. Utilizing EdgeTech’s proven Full Spectrum® CHIRP technology to provide crisp, high resolution imagery, surveyors can choose to operate any two frequencies simultaneously from the tri-frequency system.

Sub-bottom profiler capabilities have been expanded on the new 2300 to include the ability to incorporate up to four low frequency transducers as part of EdgeTech’s DW-106 (1-10kHz) deep penetration system. Coupled with that is the ability to utilize a large PVDF hydrophone array providing better sub-bottom receive sensitivity and directivity.

EdgeTech’s MPES bathymetry is also available on the 2300B. The Multi Phase Echo Sounder (MPES) produces real-time, high resolution, three dimensional (3D) maps of the seafloor while providing co-registered simultaneous dual frequency side scan imagery system.

Additional features include a remote head USBL beacon, optional Nexus Multiplexer, a rear magnetometer shackle mount, and adjustable trim panels.
