  • 120 KHZ DUAL BEAM
  • NAVIGATION, FISHING & SURVEYING
  • HIGH PERFOMANCE
  • SCIENTIFIC ECHO SOUNDER
  • HULL OR TOWED BODY
  • ROBUST NYLON HOUSING

The Type T38 is a precision echo sounder transducer designed for use in hydrographic or scientific applications where an accurately defined, narrow beam pattern is required. Operating at 120 kHz the multi-element array is configured to achieve two, highly directional, conical beam patterns with low side lobe levels. 

The transducer enables the beams to be switched between wide and narrow using a beam selection box which can be supplied separately. 

The T38 is available with or without acoustic calibration which is traceable to National Standards.
