Pinger is designed specifically for shallow water sub bottom profiling (as shallow as 4m and up to 300m in ideal conditions) and is intended for a simple over the side pole mount installation. The Pinger Wet End includes two separate interchangeable projectors – a low frequency 3.5 kHz projector for hard packed sand bottom and a 15 kHz projector for soft mud sediment sonar profiling – plus a broadband hydrophone receive array. A 200 kHz transducer is also included which provides a reference point as to where the bottom begins. This allows a wide variety of practical applications, including geophysical sediment research, harbour shoreline construction, and hazardous pond pollution monitoring.
