New Multibeam Echosounder from Teledyne RESON

Teledyne RESON introduces the SeaBat T50-P for faster operational surveys, deliverables and reduced processing time 

Teledyne RESON, a provider of hydrographic sonar solutions, announced the launch of the ultra-high resolution, portable multibeam echosounder, the SeaBat T50-P at the Teledyne Marine Technology Workshop last week in San Diego.

The SeaBat T50-P is a new addition to the SeaBat T-series, introduced in the beginning of 2013 as a completely new product generation, built from the ground up.

Combined with the Portable Sonar Processor, the SeaBat T50-P delivers clean survey data, providing faster operational surveys and reduced processing time, the manufacturer said. The SeaBat T50-P is fully frequency agile from 190 to 420 kHz allowing for improved swath performance and reduced survey time under difficult conditions. 

It is designed for fast mobilization on smaller vessels and is optimized for shallow water survey companies, port and harbor authorities, dredging companies and other users looking for an ultra-high resolution system. The Portable Sonar Processor and sonar head form a compact system, securing minimal interfacing and low space requirements. 

“The new SeaBat T50-P is the outcome of a dedicated product development effort over the last several years. The SeaBat T50-P is built on customer feedback and experiences gathered in the market for compact multibeam echosounders, and utilizes our foremost technology and performance whilst still delivering a competitively priced product,” said Tim Lysholt Jensen, VP of Technology and Product Management for Acoustic Imaging Products in Teledyne Marine. “With the incredibly clean data produced together with features like Normalized Backscatter, Multi-Detect and very advanced beamforming modes, the product provides fantastic customer value.”
