2400 SERIES
DEEP TOWED SIDE SCAN SONAR/ BATHYMETRY & SUB-BOTTOM PROFILING SYSTEM
FEATURES
• Fully integrated turnkey system
• Digital telemetry over single coaxial or
fiber optic tow cable
• Analog & digital channels for user-
supplied sensors
• Built-in heading, pitch and roll sensors
• Plug ‘n’ Tow™ factory tested optical
sensors available
APPLICATIONS
• Geohazard Surveys
• Geological/Geophysical Surveys
EdgeTech’s 2400 Series is a fully integrated combined side scan sonar (with
• Cable and Pipeline Surveys
optional wide swath bathymetry) & sub-bottom profiling system designed for deep
• Route Surveys water operation in depths down to 6,000 meters.
• Archeological Surveys
The 2400 can be completely configured by the user to best suit the applications at
hand. The system comes with a dual simultaneous frequency side scan sonar with
a choice of 75 kHz, 120 kHz or 410 kHz frequencies; any of which can be paired
together. The 2400 also comes with the choice of a wideband sub-bottom profiler.
Frequency options for the sub-bottom profiler are 1-10 kHz, 2-16 kHz or 4-24 kHz. In
addition the system can be configured with wide swath MPES bathymetry.
A multitude of additional optional sensors can also be integrated with the 2400
System for additional data collection. Many of these sensors are Plug ‘n’ Tow™
which means they have been tested by EdgeTech and the product manufacturer
to ensure that both systems will work seamlessly together. Some typical Plug ‘n’
Tow™ sensors include magnetometer, USBL interface, swath bathymetry, CTD,
motion sensing, etc. with others also available.
