D/11/BB

D/11/BB
  • NEAR OCTAVE BANDWIDTH
  • OMNI-DIRECTIONAL RESPONSE
  • EFFICIENT TRANSMITTER
  • HIGH POWER PROJECTOR
  • DEEP WATER CAPABILITY

The D/11/BB is a wide band, highly efficient, omni-directional transmit and receive transducer, with a 3dB bandwidth from 8 kHz to 18 kHz. 

The robust, corrosion free construction enables the transducer to operate in extreme underwater environments. The over-moulded design enables the D/11/BB to be mechanically robust and suitable for harsh environments. 

The D/11/BB is available with or without acoustic calibration, traceable to National Standards.
