HydroSweep MD/30
The Hydrosweep MD/30 Is a Deep Water Multibeam Echosounder Ideally Suited for Seabed Mapping in Medium and Deep Waters Down to 7,000 M Water Depth
The HydroSweep MD/30 utilizes operating frequencies between 24 and 30 kHz to acquire bathymetry, watercolumn backscatter, seabed snippets backscatter, and side scan backscatter. In view of beam resolution, the HydroSweep MD/30 is available as a combination of 1° or 1.5° along track and 1° or 1.5° across track. All transducers are planar arrays designed to be flush mounted, within a fairing or in a gondola construction.
Description
The HydroSweep MD/30 applies up to 4x multi-pings, which means that up to four swaths are transmitted simultaneously per ping slightly tilted along the track. This results in gapless surveying at a higher ship's speed.
Soundings may be spaced in an “equi-angle" or “equi-distant“ fashion.
A High Order Beamforming bottom detection algorithm achieves up to 960 soundings per ping with the best possible accuracy to meet IHO S-44 accuracy standards.
Benefits:
- Depth range of more than 7,000 m
- 4x multi-ping operation
- Roll and Pitch stabilised beams
- 960 soundings per ping
- Backscatter and sidescan data recording
- Water column analysis
