Introducing our new multibeam echo sounder: the Teledyne Odom Hydrographic MB1. Designed and manufactured entirely within the Teledyne Marine group to meet the growing needs of hydrographic professionals that are looking for a low-cost shallow-water multibeam echo sounder.
Using both amplitude and phase bottom detection, the MB1 is capable of sounding a swath of up to 120° in over 120m water depth. With 24 bit raw data and a dedicated projector, both raw water column and seabed data can be collected within the controller software. The new and improved Real Time Appliance (RTA) improves time synchronization on all of the sensors necessary for surveying down to 0.1ms. New options include a fully integrated GPS heading system built into the RTA and a TSS motion sensor built into the sonar head. Teledyne Impulse Titan® Series connectors are used for quick dependable data and power connection.
