Fisher Sidescan Sonar

  Dual frequency and single frequency side scan sonar for locating objects on the ocean floor.

The Fishers SSS-100K/600K dual frequency side scan sonar represents a major price/performance breakthrough in low cost side scan systems. A single frequency side scan (100K or 600K) is available at an even lower cost. The single frequency systems can be updated to a dual frequency system any time.
 

The 600K single frequency side scan is ideal for law enforcement and dive rescue operations because of it's very high resolution over ranges up to 200'(400' swath). The higher frequency can show targets (drowning victims, clothing, etc) that lower frequency (100K to 300K) systems have difficulty detecting. The limitation of the 600K system is shorter range as compared to lower frequency side scan. However, the higher resolution of the high frequency is ideal when searching for small targets.

The 100K single frequency system is best for wreck hunting or general search applications. It has excellent long range capabilities of up to 1,800' per side (3,600' swath).

 The dual frequency (100K/600K) side scan gives the operator the best of both systems. It allows 600K operation (very high resolution) when searching for small or soft targets and 100K operation when searching for larger targets or covering wide search areas.

A 17" wide thermal printer provides a detailed picture of the ocean floor and profile images of any object laying on the bottom. The high resolution of the print-out, at 203 dots per inch, is three times that of color monitor displays.

An optional computer hardware/software package is also available. The image is displayed on a monitor as shown below. See the Order Page for more detail of this option.

 
Key Features of the SSS-100K:
It's portability, rugged construction, low cost, high resolution thermal printer, and ease of operation.

  • Option Descriptions

    Extra cable
    Fishers side scan sonar come equipped with a 150 foot cable. Longer lengths of cable are available up to a maximum of 500 feet.

    Analog output (for computer input)
    a 0-5vdc analog output option allows the side scan sonar information to be put into a format for input into a computer's analog port. It is necessary to have software to display, manipulate, and store the side scan data.

    Laptop and Sonar VIEW software
    The new computer hardware and software offered by Fishers lets their side scan system output to both a high resolution 17" wide thermal printer and also a computer, providing the best of both worlds. The computer system gives the side scan operator a variety of options for displaying and enhancing the sonar image. The software allows selection of several different color schemes, enlargement of targets, and manipulation of side scan controls such as slant range correction and water column removal. In addition, the computer system will accept data input from other devices. GPS position information can be sent to the PC for display and storage along with the side scan data. Position coordinates, target size and height are displayed with a click of the mouse.

    Four 300 ft. rolls of paper
    With the printer set on the 100 meter range, one roll of paper will last for 20 hours.

    220 vac
    The side scan is designed to be powered by a 120 vac voltage supply. If the available voltage supply is 220 vac, this 220/120 vac step down transformer will reduce the supply voltage to the required input voltage.

    12 vdc
    The side scan is designed to be powered by a 120 vac voltage supply. If the available voltage supply is 12 vdc, this 12 vdc/120 vac inverter will convert the supply voltage to the required input voltage.
