Description

The Hydrolite-MB™ is a portable dual frequency echosounder. Similar to the HydroLite-TM, it comes with a versatile pole kit and is ready to log depths out of the box. The system combines both low frequency (30 kHz) and high frequency (200 kHz) transducers in one unit, enabling it to work at longer ranges and in some cases, penetrate soft sediments to detect surface and underlying sediment layers. GPS and data collector sold separately.

Each system is pre-configured and pre-calibrated on its mounting frame. The configuration includes:

Shallow water multibeam echosounder
Inertial navigation system for heave, pitch, roll, heading and positioning
Sound Velocity Probe
Portable Mounting Pole
On-site operational training (upon request)

Combined with the software for survey planning, data collection, patch test calibration, and data processing, the package offers everything required to conduct, collect, and analyze important high-resolution multibeam survey data.
