Survey Equipment
R2Sonic 2024
Availability: Rental
The R2 Sonic 2024 Multibeam System was the world’s first proven wideband high-resolution shallow water multibeam echo sounder. With proven results and performance, the R2 Sonic 2024 Multibeam Echo Sounder produces reliable and remarkably clean data with maximum user flexibility through all range settings to 500m.
The 60kHz signal bandwidth offers twice the resolution of any CW wave commercial sonar in both data accuracy and image. With over many selectable operating frequencies to choose from 200 to 400kHz, and the new option of Ultra High Definition up to 700kHz, the user has flexibility in trading off resolution and range and controlling interference from other active acoustic systems. The compact size, low weight, low power consumption of 50W and elimination of separate topside processors make R2 Sonic 2024 Multibeam System very well suited for small survey vessel or ROV/AUV operations.
Options:
Ultra-High-Density Mode (UHD)
Available upon request from Unique Group, please specify at time of order.
Conventional MBES increase bottom sampling density using overlapping beams, which fails to improve precision, resolution, or accuracy in a meaningful way. R2Sonic’s proprietary UHD is a revolutionary new orthogonal bottom detection process that increases the number of truly independent bottom samples from the standard 256 soundings per ping, up to 1024 independent soundings per ping. This represents an increase by a factor of 4.
UHD yields an exceptionally clean data set for surveys that require very high resolution, such as pipeline inspections, cable-laying operations, and detailed micro-bathymetry applications.
UHD is an additional bottom-sounding mode – users can always choose the classic 256 soundings in Equiangle or Equidistant distribution, or Dual or Quad mode.
Ultra High Resolution Mode (UHR)
Available upon request from Unique Group, please specify at time of order.
The Narrowest Beams Possible on the Market
The Sonic 2024 can be supplied to UHR specification to provide extremely narrow beamwidths at 700kHz: 0.3° x 0.6°
These unprecedentedly small bottom footprints are invaluable for detailed survey targets and accurate inspection data.
