Identifier: Edgetech SB-216S
Docucomp UUID: 69560dff-8352-436e-921d-1faeb8e4a279
Instrument / Gear: Instrument
Instrument Type: Echosounder
Description:

A 3100 system comes with a choice of two towfish; either the SB-424 or SB-216S. These towfish operate at different frequency ranges and selection between the two depends on the type of application. The 424 operates at 4-24 kHz and will provide slightly higher resolution but less penetration. The 216S operates at 2-16 kHz and provides slightly less resolution but greater penetration. Along with a towfish, the 3100 system comes with a portable splash-proof topside processor with laptop computer running EdgeTech's DISCOVER software for display of the sonar data. The system comes standard with a 35m tow cable with customer-specified lengths also available.
