Equipment rental to supply an EdgeTech 2000-DSS Combined DF-SS (100/400 kHz) and SBP (2-16 kHz) Sonar with Magnetometer Interface, Topside Processor w/ Built-in PC. 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 2000-DSS Combined Side Scan Sonar and Sub-Bottom Profiling System is a combination frequency modulated (FM) dual-frequency side scan sonar and a high-resolution FM sub-bottom profiler that uses EdgeTech’s proprietary Full Spectrum “chirp” technologies to simultaneously generate both longer-ranged high-resolution side scan imagery and high-resolution cross-sectional sub-bottom imagery of the seabed at deeper penetrations than conventional continuous wave (CW) systems.
The 2000-DSS Combined Side Scan Sonar and Sub-Bottom Profiling System is available with a choice of two dual-frequency configurations for the side scan sonar: 100/400 kHz and 300/600 kHz. The 2000-DSS uses a high frequency, 2–16 kHz sub-bottom sonar for higher resolution sub-bottom imaging in water depths up to 2000 meters.
The two side scan frequencies and the sub-bottom frequency are transmitted simultaneously as linearly swept wideband high energy acoustic pulses (also called “chirp pulses”) over a full spectrum frequency range. The received echoes are processed into high signal-to-noise (SNR) images, which can be directly displayed as shades of gray or color on a computer monitor and printed on a continuous feed thermal printer. The data can also be stored in real-time onto a large capacity hard drive and archived onto a DVD.
