Dolphin 3040V
The Dolphin Real Time Hybrid Sonar is an exciting new product from Marine Electronics designed to combine two reliable technologies into one dedicated package, helping to minimise valuable space and weight on underwater vehicles.
The Dolphin Hybrid comprises a mid range, high frequency, high resolution electronically scanned sonar particularly suited for pilotage, navigation and search operations. Built into the same unit is a short range, high resolution, mechanically scanning imaging sonar for higher definition and close proximity inspection and monitoring.
The underwater housing is suitable for mounting on anything from a small Remotely Operated Vehicle to a large surface vessel. The surface display is generated by a P.C. running the "Windows" operating system. The umbilical cable requirement is a single twisted pair to handle both sonar’s telemetry plus a coaxial cable to handle the video signal of the electronically scanned system. At the surface the sonar telemetry is connected to a small USB Interface Unit which is self-powered from the P.C. Power to the sonar is supplied either from the vehicle or via an additional two power cores through the umbilical.
The system software provided has facilities to log raw data at full resolution to a hard disk drive for post analysis as well as a suite of on-screen measurement tools. The "Windows" interface significantly reduces the time taken to understand the system, minimising training requirements.
