Model 77 Series

Model 77 Series
  • DUAL FREQUENCY
  • 30 LF / HF COMBINATIONS
  • FISHING, NAVIGATION & SURVEYING
  • HULL MOUNTING
  • LOW SIDE-LOBES
  • ROBUST NYLON HOUSING

The 77 SERIES hull-mounted dual frequency transducers offer both high and low frequency sections combined in a single unit. 

The ability to specify a wide combination of frequencies in the same basic unit provides the echo sounder manufacturer and hydrographer with the flexibility to select a system to meet the desired survey requirements of resolution, range, silt penetration and beam pattern. 

The high impact strength nylon body provides a mechanically robust and corrosion free transducer. 

The 77 SERIES is available with or without acoustic calibration, traceable to National Standards. Transducer impedance can be adjusted to suit customers specification – see specification tables below.
