SHP Small High Power Transmitters

11 mm and 13 mm acoustic transmitters with a 150 dB source level for tracking fish from 300 g over long distances, with optional activity, depth and temperature sensors.

Description

Small High Power (SHP) transmitters let researchers track small animals over long distances. They come in 11 mm and 13 mm diameters and, under the 1.25% rule, can be used on fish weighing as little as 300 g.

Key features

  • 11 mm and 13 mm diameters
  • Source level 150 dB
  • Operating frequency range 69 kHz to 83 kHz
  • Optional sensors for activity (accelerometry), depth (pressure) and temperature
  • Open Protocol or R64K coding for compatibility with many existing receiver arrays
  • Rounded end for surgical implantation, or endcaps with small holes for external attachment

Applications

Fisheries research and long-distance tracking of small fish.
