Flexview

The Flexview, KONGSBERG's latest advancement in multibeam sonar technology, is designed specifically for small observation class ROVs where compact size and light weight are key selection criteria.

Innovative Design and Functionality

The Flexview’s removable transducer is the first of its kind, offering field replacement of a damaged transducer in the unlikely event of a catastrophic impact. It also allows for potential new transducer configurations to be exchanged in the future, depending on the job being performed.

High-Frequency Flexibility

The Flexview is offered in two versions to suit varying operational needs. The Flexview – FLEXVIEW HF (High Frequency) version provides 70 m coverage over a 140° sector, yielding higher resolution images at short range. Conversely, the Flexview – 500 kHz version affords 200 m coverage over the same sector, ensuring high-resolution images at longer ranges. Both versions maintain the ideal suitability for small observation class ROVs.
