Instrument Information

Identifier: Kongsberg 300 khz EM3002D Multibeam Sonar
Instrument / Gear: Instrument
Instrument Type: Multibeam Echosounder
Description:

The EM 3002 is a new advanced multibeam echo sounder with extremely high resolution and dynamically focused beams. It is very well suited for detailed seafloor mapping and inspection with water depths from less than 1 meter up to typically 200 meters in cold oceanic conditions. Maximum depth capability is strongly dependant on water temperature and salinity- up to 300 meters is possible under favorable conditions. Due to its electronic pitch compensation system and roll stabilized beams, the system performance is stable also in foul weather conditions
