WESMAR WEB System Specifications

Operating Frequency: Available in different frequencies from 60kHz to 170kHz. Multiple sensors of varying frequency can be used in close proximity without acoustic interference.


Pulse Width: Operator selectable from 0.0 to 16ms or automatically adjusted for range scale.


Horizontal Beamwidth: Varies from 7 to 14 degrees, depending on frequency of sonar. Vertical Beamwidth: Varies from 5 to 10 degrees, depending on frequency of sensor.


Transducer Mounting Depth: Standard sensor operates to 50 feet. Capable of depths to 1000 feet with optional pressure-compensation system.


Maximum Cable Length: Standard cable operates to 2000 meters. Capable of distances in excess of 5000 meters with low-impedance cable. Available with signal repeaters for special long-distance applications beyond 5000 meters.


Synchronization: Transmit cycles of multiple sensors may be synchronized by connecting consoles with RG-58 coaxial cable and selecting this menu option. Acoustic interference of same frequency sensors and potential "cross-talk" between adjacent sensors is eliminated.


Cable: Low-cost marine grade coaxial cable carries all power, control signals, and sonar data, using Manchester II coding scheme. Fiber Optic Interface Available as a system option for high-noise environments.


Shallow Water Capability: The WEB has been used successfully in water depths as shallow as 4 meters.


Commercial off-the-shelf: The WEB can be exported to most countries on WESMAR's US Dept. of Commerce License.
